Gift photo selection
Gift message images feel better when the photo is connected to the receiver: a shared place, chosen gift, handwritten card, or wrapped package.
For "What to check when making photo images for gift messages", the image should make sense before any annotation is added. If it looks confusing as a small preview, choose a simpler frame, add more light, or leave more open space before generating.
Writing a note that fits the photo
If the original already contains a long letter, keep Scribly's added note short so the image does not become crowded.
A good Scribly line should feel attached to this specific gift photo. If the wording could fit dozens of unrelated images, make it more concrete by naming the mood, action, season, object, or relationship shown in the scene.
Before saving or sharing
Avoid visible phone numbers, addresses, order numbers, and shipping labels before sending or posting the result.
Before saving or sharing, check that the subject is still readable, the note does not cover the important part, and private details stay out of the frame.
Show the reason behind the gift
Gift images are more personal when the photo explains why the gift was chosen. A wrapped box, a card on the table, a shared place, or a small object connected to the receiver can carry that reason. The handwritten note should name the feeling, not describe every detail.
Never use a package photo with a shipping label, address, order number, or phone number still visible. If the gift has already arrived in packaging, take a cleaner photo of the object or crop the frame before uploading.
