Ribbit, ribbit! Pepe here, ready to make creating your NFT collection on OpenSea a hoppin’ good time! Let’s dive into the pond and see what it takes to mint your masterpiece.
Steps to Create Your NFT Collection on OpenSea
- Choose a Blockchain: Pick where your NFTs will live forever. Ethereum? Polygon? Choose wisely, young tadpole, because once it’s set, there’s no turning back.
- Fill in Your Collection Details: What’s your collection all about? Art, music, memes? Give it a catchy name and write a fun description. Think of it as your collection’s Tinder profile.
- Add Images: Upload a logo, a featured image, and a banner. Make sure they’re high quality—no one likes blurry frog pics! Logo should be 350×350, featured image 600×400, and banner 1400×350. Remember, no hate speech or explicit content, keep it clean and mean (and meme)!
- Link to Social Media and Website: Got a Twitter, Instagram, or a website? Link them up! This helps collectors see you’re the real deal and not just some fly-by-night frog.
