Do this step by step

You can add your custom folder icons while creating a new folder or editing an existing folder.

The recommended dimensions of a folder icon are 420px by 460px. Save them as PNG files to preserve transparency. You can design icons with or without labels.

• Icons with labels: You can use the entire space to position your icon, as the label will be part of the design.
• Icons without labels: If you use Showpad's default folder labels, they will appear below the icon space (420px by 460px). To keep the icon closer to the label, we recommend positioning your design toward the bottom of the artboard.

To upload a custom folder icon:

1. Navigate to the Libraries tab.
2. If your organization uses multiple Divisions/Libraries, select the desired Division/Library from the top-left dropdown menu.
3. Select Experiences in the left side menu.
