Features / Image overlays

Image overlays on your board

Lay a second image over the board: a promo frame, a logo lockup or a sold-out stamp, sitting cleanly on top while the board keeps flipping underneath.

Available on the Business plan and up

Real overlay

A real image overlaid on a live split-flap board.

§ What it is & why it helps

An overlay is a second image that sits on top of your board. The board underneath carries on doing its job, flipping your menu, your message or your photo, and the overlay adds a layer over it: a promo frame, a logo lockup, a match graphic or a sold-out stamp. It is what makes the screen look designed rather than typed.

Because the overlay is its own layer, you can swap it without rebuilding anything underneath. Put a seasonal frame up for a week, drop a sponsor lockup on for a match, then take it off again, and the menu or message behind it never changes.

§ What you get
  • Lay a second image over a live board
  • Promo frames, logo lockups, badges and stamps
  • Swap or remove it without touching the board underneath
  • The board keeps flipping behind it
§ Ways to use it
