Social media & design

Local graphics, Canva workflows, and brand-safe visuals — so your triad ships posts and flyers without waiting on staff.

Local media graphics

Use simple graphics for Facebook groups, local newsletters, community calendars, event pages, school or campus posts, chamber pages, and light-touch local media outreach.

Keep it local, clear, and easy to share.

Kelly Headshot Library

Approved cutouts ship as kelly-accent-1.png, kelly-accent-2.png, kelly-accent-3.png, kelly-accent-4.png — each a single pose on a transparent background. Do not crop from a multi-portrait composite canvas; HQ provides isolated files only. The team dashboard hero uses kelly-hero.png and falls back to a warm placeholder SVG if it is missing.

  • Dashboard super header

    Compact volunteer hero — transparent PNG cutout. Not a collage tile.

Using approved Kelly cutouts in Canva

Team accents and local graphics should use transparent PNG cutouts from public/images/kelly/headshots/ — the volunteer-approved set is kelly-accent-1.png, kelly-accent-2.png, kelly-accent-3.png, kelly-accent-4.png. Never screenshots from the web or uncropped JPEGs with busy backgrounds.

  • Upload once, reuse. Add each approved file to your Canva Brand kit → Uploads (or a shared team folder) so coordinators pull the same assets.
  • One Kelly focal per graphic. Avoid stacking multiple full-body cutouts or duplicating the same shot — pair Kelly with simple shapes, local photos, or typography.
  • Respect the silhouette. Do not crop into hands, hair, or clothing in a way that looks like a mistake; do not add outlines, stickers, or heavy filters that change skin tone or misrepresent Kelly.
  • Keep disclosure zones clear. Leave margin for “Paid for by” or platform-required disclaimers on boosted or political content — when in doubt, ask HQ before spending.
  • Match the dashboard workflow. HQ stores raw sources separately; volunteers and field teams work from the dashboard-ready PNGs in headshots/. Request new cutouts through your coordinator rather than tracing from unofficial photos.
