Burnpedia Image Maker – Social Image Designer with 130 Templates

Description

Burnpedia Image Maker is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by
Pinterest, Inc. Pinterest is their trademark, named here only to say what the
images are for and where the one optional feature posts them.

Every post you publish deserves a Pin, and making one is usually a trip to another
website: export the photo, upload it somewhere, fight a template, download it,
come back. This plugin puts the whole thing inside WordPress.

It is a Pinterest pin designer that lives in your dashboard – a pin maker
that already knows the post you are writing about, so there is no upload step and
no second tab.

Open a post and the canvas is already composed — the featured image in place,
the post title as the headline, a sensible template, a 2:3 Pinterest canvas, the
permalink attached. Change what you want and download it. Most Pins take under a
minute.

Do I need an account? No — not to design, not to download, not to save to your
Media Library. All of that runs in your browser, on your own site, with no limit,
no watermark and no sign-up. An account is needed for one optional thing: posting
the finished Pin to Pinterest for you. That is described plainly under External
services below.

What you get

• 130 templates across two families — text laid over a full-bleed photo, and
  layouts that hold the photo inside a designed frame (magazine cover, side split,
  ticket stub, arch pair, window pane, and many more).
• 40 colour palettes, or your own brand colours.
• Your photos — the post’s featured image, any image already in the post, your
  Media Library, or a file from your computer. Crop with 1–4× zoom and pan.
• Text you can move — drag the headline anywhere on the canvas, resize it,
  restyle it. Seven type choices, colour, size and a legibility scrim.
• Extra elements — up to 12 text blocks, badges and stickers.
• A brand kit — your logo, your colours, your font, remembered per site, so
  every Pin from this blog looks like this blog.
• Any size from 400 to 3000 pixels, exported as PNG, JPG or WebP, with a
  warning when a shape is a poor fit for Pinterest.
• Undo and redo, and an autosaved draft so a closed tab does not lose work.

Every pin template is a real design, not a filter: the same layouts a designer
would build for a vertical Pinterest image, with your photograph and your
headline dropped into them.

What you can do with a finished Pin

• Download it — full resolution, no watermark, ever.
• Save it to your Media Library.
• Set it as the post’s featured image.
• Insert it into the post (it asks first, and it only ever appends).
• Send it to Pinterest — optional, and the only part that needs an account.

Works on a phone

wp-admin gets used on phones, so the editor does too: the canvas takes a finger,
the controls stack, and nothing is smaller than a thumb.

Nothing is locked

There is no pro version of the editor, no watermark, no trial, no feature behind
a button that asks for money. What our service meters is volume of posting to
Pinterest — see below — and everything else here is simply free.

External services

This plugin is a client for Burnpedia (https://burnpedia.app), a Pinterest
scheduling service we operate. It is used for one optional feature: sending a
finished Pin to Pinterest.

Nothing is sent anywhere until an administrator either saves a Burnpedia API
key or presses “Connect this site”. Until one of those two things happens, the
plugin makes no outbound request of any kind. There is no telemetry, no
analytics, no phone-home and no third-party asset — every script, style and font
in this plugin is served from your own site.

Pressing Connect this site makes exactly one kind of request, and it carries
nothing about you or your site:

• POST https://burnpedia.app/api/site-connect/claim — after you press
  Connect this site, while you are approving the connection on burnpedia.app.
  Sends: two random strings this site generated for that one connection, and the
  plugin’s name and version. Receives: a short status word – whether you have
  approved it yet – and, once you have, your new API key, which the plugin saves
  for you. Nothing else comes back. Your site’s address and name are shown on the
  approval page because they travel in the link your browser opens; they are never
  sent by the plugin itself. If you approve nothing, no key is ever created and
  the request stops on its own after fifteen minutes.

When a key is saved, these requests are made, and only these:

• GET https://burnpedia.app/api/v1/me — when an administrator opens the Send
  panel or the Connection screen, and when a key is saved. Sends: your API key.
  Receives: your plan, how many Pins you have posted today, and whether a
  Pinterest account is connected.
• GET https://burnpedia.app/api/v1/boards — when an administrator opens the
  Send panel, to list your Pinterest boards. Sends: your API key. Receives: board
  names and ids.
• POST https://burnpedia.app/api/v1/pins — only when you press Send to
  Pinterest. Sends: your API key, the public URL of the Pin image you just
  saved to your Media Library, the Pin title, the post’s permalink, and the board
  you chose (or a board name taken from the post title). Pinterest then downloads
  the image from your site at that URL.

Every request also carries the plugin’s name and version, so we can tell which
version of the plugin a request came from.
