Important information

There are two ways for tagging your files:

• Uploading a .csv file with the information of all your files
• Tagging your vectors directly from your contributor panel (Files waiting to tag)

In order to upload the CSV with tags and titles, please read the guide for creating a well formed .csv file.

 

 How to tag vectors

Before going into the tagging guidelines, we should point out the most common types of designs so we can add the appropriate basic tags.  

The most common designs are: background, banner, business card, flyer, infographic, stationery and wedding.

 

BACKGROUND	BANNER
BUSINESS CARD	BROCHURE

 

 

1.  BACKGROUND TAGS

There are different types of background: abstract, polygonal, themed (Labor Day, International  Peace Day, Friendship Day...) and patterned. As a general rule, all backgrounds have two basic tags: background and wallpaper. If the background has a specific theme, then we’ll use the corresponding tags for that theme.

 

1.1. ABSTRACT AND POLYGONAL BACKGROUNDS 

ABSTRACT	POLYGONAL

 

Abstract and Polygonal backgrounds usually have the following tags depending on the design:

 

abstract, polygonal, poly, polygon, low poly, modern, geometric, geometrical, geometric shape, abstract shape, shape.

 

The color can be specified if a background is just one color. If, on the other hand, it consists of various colors, we can use the tag colorful.

 

1.2. THEMED BACKGROUNDS

Themed backgrounds (Labor Day, International Peace Day, Friendship Day, Ramadan...) should contain the previously mentioned basic tags and the specific tags for the theme in question.

For example:

LABOR DAY   Basic tags background, wallpaper   Labor Day tags september, monday, international, day, labor, labor day, work day, workers, workers movement, labor movement, recognition, defend, reclaim, social, rights, eight, hours, strike, america, american, usa, work, job, labor, celebration, national, patriotic.

 

We willl use the additional tags to refer to the style of the design and to describe it.

 

1.3. PATTERNED

To tag a pattern, we first need to identify it as such. This should be a clear and coherent repetition of images in the design. 

Once identified, we can add the basic tags for a patterned background, as well as the ones that refer to the specific pattern or design itself.

For example:

ANIMAL PATTERNS   Basic tags background, wallpaper, pattern, seamless, seamless pattern   Animal tags animal, pet, dog, cat
