How to Create and Personalize Facebook Stories

create-facebook-stories-featured

WhatsApp has its status, and Snapchat has its stories – it was only a matter of time before Facebook got its stories as well. It’s been around for a while now, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that everyone has been using it.
Creating and personalizing your Facebook story is beginner-friendly and has options that will keep you entertained. There is even an option to add music so you can add your own personal touch. It’s possible to create Facebook stories via your smartphone or desktop. Let’s see how it’s done.

Facebook gives you three options when it comes to creating a story. The easiest option is to tap on the “Add to Story” option; it will be the first option you see when you launch the app. The other two options would be to press the camera icon at the top-left or Facebook asking you for permissions, such as asking for access to your phone’s camera and access to your files.

Once you’re in, you can choose various ways to shoot your Facebook Stories. You can choose from Normal, Video, 360, and Boomerang, and you can also go live. Let’s say that you’ve chosen Normal Mode. To add effects to your Facebook Story, tap on the wand icon to the left.

You’ll see different effects you can choose from, and there are even a few that you can try with a friend. Use these effects either for a video or photo story. When you’re done using the effects, just tap on the arrow pointing down to the left of the white circle.

You can also add effects to the Boomerang option. For example, you can add all sorts of frames such as stars, leaves, confetti, balloons, etc. At the top-right, you’ll also see the options to add all kinds of stickers such as the time, emojis, and more.
Tap on the A, and add text that can also be personalized with font styles such as Personal, Fancy, Simple, and Clean. By tapping on the uneven lines, you can also move the text from side to side.
stories-text
It’s also possible to add pictures from your gallery by tapping the rectangle icon to the left of the camera button. Another option would be to swipe up from the bottom of your display to access your pictures.
stories-delete
If you regret what you’ve posted and want to erase it, go to your story and view it. At the top, you’ll see three dots you need to tap on. The option to delete should be the first one on the list.

Xbox One X: The Beast You Probably Don’t Want Right Now

Xbox One X: The Beast You Probably Don’t Want Right Now The gaming console market has always had a fierce rivalry between Sony and Microsoft. When we talk about the previous gen, the Xbox 360 clearly had the upper hand against the Sony PS3. But then the tables were reversed when both the companies brought about their current gen consoles, the PS4, and the Xbox One. The PS4 beat the Xbox One out of the park, scoring huge sales numbers, and leading Microsoft to question their marketing strategy. Later on, Microsoft did introduce the  Xbox One S  to compete against the  PS4 Slim , though that was a competition in which there was no clear winner. Now, 4 years since the launch of the original Xbox One, Microsoft has brought about the Xbox One X, the next-gen console, which goes head-to-head with Sony’s  PS4 Pro . The biggest selling point of these next-gen consoles is the ability to play games in native 4K resolution. While the PS4 Pro does pack in quite a punc...

How to Create Live Wallpaper in Windows 10

When Windows 10 introduced its own dynamic wallpaper feature, many were excited about getting regular photo updates to their backgrounds that could take them to faraway lands. But, if you’re like me, sometimes a simple photo just isn’t enough to inspire you when you’re staring at your Windows 10 desktop. That’s where live wallpapers come in. Although not for everyone, these animated images can add just the right amount of spice to your desktop or laptop when you’re feeling the dreary drag of the workday! What to Consider Although desktop users won’t necessarily find themselves affected by this issue, anyone considering setting up their live wallpaper on a Windows laptop or tablet should realize that while beautiful to look at, live wallpapers do eat up a bit more battery life than a standard wallpaper would. If you don’t have much charge left or don’t have a ton of capacity to begin with, you might want to consider sticking with a standard wallpaper. Also, even tho...
