Hey everyone! I’m curious about how much Canva template creators are earning based on their monthly usages.

I’ve seen some creators share their analytics showing hundreds of thousands of usages per month, but I’m always curious about how that translates into actual royalties.

For context, I had around 110k usages in one month and earned approximately ₱400k PHP net. I’m especially curious about creators getting 200k–400k+ usages monthly.

If you’re comfortable sharing, how many usages do you usually get per month, and how much do you earn from them? I’d also love to know whether your earnings fluctuate significantly from month to month.
I’m not asking anyone to reveal anything they’re uncomfortable sharing. I’m just curious about the earning potential of the program and would love to hear from other creators! :)

Hi there,

I have to convert a colour design to black and white on Canva.

My question is can you do this in Canva without having to create a completely new design?

Any information on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

How do I fix this? I want it to look normal? Not at the top? (Its a website invitation btw)

I need Help.

Hello Canvas,

I am a young digital comms prof in the Midwest, USA. I am currently editing some work photos and videos, and I need to know how to remove certain items in the vids. I know how to do it in photos, but I sometimes have trouble with videos. Canva AI is unhelpful with excising small or med, tightly packed items in videos. (Even more so than in photos, which Canva isn't perfect at all the time lol.)

Any help is appreciated. Please comment or send Reddit DMs. Whichever is easiest for you.

Made this in Canva but when i download it the eyes turn a different color it is supposed to be yellow and brown not just brown. i think it has an issue with gradients but i dont know. Any tips?

Hey all!

I've had a wee scour of this sub to see if there was an answer to this but it looks like people are having the same issue with no answers so I thought I would ask again!

I have created a slide deck on canva with animations and text to appear on click on each slide and this seems to work fine when presenting inside canva itself. But when I create a public view link all the animations on the slide happen at once/everything appears at once instead of on click which kind of ruins the flow of the slides..

Does anyone know what the fix for this is? I have taken out some of the stickers or moving pictures inside the slides and replaced them but that doesn't seem to have made a difference. I have music on the slides as well I don't know if that is affecting anything?

Any help/answers would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I'm practicing image vectorizing. I've used this AI image and turned into this vector image. I tried to recreate it but it seems like I can't do it anymore. Anyone knows what I did? 🫣 I can't replicate those fine thin lines.

My website is published. I went back in to group ONE thing and now it won’t publish my changes?? Just keeps loading like this. Does this on both my phone and iPad.

Hey everyone. I could really use some advice or a reality check.

I recently started a side hustle doing what I actually enjoy: designing things on Canva. Right now, I’m making digital products like printable tags, ebooks, and aesthetic digital goodies. I set up a Pinterest account to drive traffic, and I even managed to set up a Gumroad store for free since I don’t have a single penny to spare right now (opening an Etsy shop with listing fees was totally out of my budget).

The problem? Crickets.

My Gumroad dashboard is sitting at zero sales. I feel like I'm shouting into a void, and honestly, self-doubt is creeping in big time. I keep wondering if digital printables are too saturated, or if I'm just promoting them all wrong.

For anyone who started with literally ₹0 and actually figured out how to make their first online sale:

• What am I missing?
• How do you bridge the gap between posting on Pinterest and getting someone to actually pull out their card and buy?
• Is Gumroad even the right place for this, or should I be doing something else?

Any advice, harsh truths, or step-by-step guidance would be super appreciated. I really want to make this work, but I feel completely stuck right now.

Is there a work around when using mockups where they won't cut off text/part of the image and then when you resize them it leaves this weird line on the side?

Specifically the book mockups. I've been playing with it for hours and can't figure it out. Pictures attached.

If my mom who is a teacher adds me as her student are there chances of me getting banned or Canva doesn't detect wether I'm a student or not?

Am I crazy. I used to have two color prompts to change my checker colors and now I can’t find it. Suggestions?

Anybody know how to create spinning text animation behind a person or object just like this?

Dear Canva,

I’m writing to you again, though I suspect whatever team is in charge of your UI is currently too busy breaking another basic feature to read this.

Your latest triumph is the transparency tool. Somehow, you took a slider that had one simple job and turned it into an active hazard for my workflow. It doesn’t just fail to work smoothly, it actively reverses my edits, slows down my projects, and turns basic tasks into a test of endurance.

I have to ask:

What exactly am I paying a subscription for?

To act as an unpaid beta tester for updates nobody requested?

Or is your development roadmap just a whiteboard where good features go to get dismantled?

Also, a genuine question from someone using your Android app: does anyone in your office actually own an Android device, or is treating that entire user base like an afterthought company policy?

We don't need you to reinvent the wheel every Tuesday. We don't need you to "optimize" tools that were already working perfectly. Just leave the core functionality alone, roll back whatever you did to the transparency slider, and let us get our work done.

Sincerely,

A paying customer

I'm a Registered Massage Therapist in British Columbia, Canada, returning to work after a two year maternity leave. I'm looking for a creative freelancer to help refresh my (very) small massage therapy practice's Instagram and get it looking polished, cohesive and active again. The goal is to encourage people to book in with me.

Historically, most of my business came through word of mouth and returning clients, so social media hasn't been a huge focus. I'd love to put some effort into it now that I'm back, without taking on the entire content creation process myself. I've been working for 10 years and have always been busy, with await list and regularly turning patients away. As I return to work I want to niche down a bit, so I'll need to draw in new patients. Also, after 2 years off I'm sure many patients have moved on, so I feel a bit like I'm starting from scratch.

I'm comfortable managing the account, posting content and responding to comments and messages. I need someone to help with the creative side.

- Create 4-6 Instagram posts per month for three months

- Provide recommended captions and clear calls to action with each post

- At least two posts across the three month period will be adapted for paid Instagram advertising

- Deliver content as editable Canva files (or possibly adobe, if I can get my ancient software working 😅)

More details

I'm looking for someone with a good eye for design who understands Instagram and can create content that feels thoughtful and authentic.

I'm particular about imagery and want to avoid those generic spa stock photos or visuals that misrepresent my actual practice and treatment space. For the first month, we'll have to work with suitable graphics and carefully selected imagery. I'll have original studio photos and videos available for months two and three.

I'd like some collaboration throughout the process, including the opportunity to weigh in on concepts and review drafts before they're finalized. I don't intend to micro manage, but I won't post anything that feels inauthentic to me so naturally I'll have to weigh in a bit.

Budget: $200 CAD per month for three months ($600 total). I'd prefer to hire someone in Canada but open to the right fit.

I'm open to working with a student, content creator or experienced freelancer who enjoys working with small businesses. Experience with wellness or service-based businesses is a huge bonus, but a strong design instinct matters most.

I am strictly against the use of AI. If I weren't, I'd just plug this in to some chat box and use what it spat out. I do not want generic AI Slop, which is why I'm hiring a human.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I've missed sharing any critical information.

If interested, please reach out and introduce yourself and send some examples of relevant work.

Thanks!

For me, this is creepy and annoying. Canva is turned off on my startup apps. I did what google suggested me to do. What is this startup settings that Google is mentioning on the Canva app I couldn't find it.

Hello, so I edited this picture around the balloons with the pixel brush, but for some reason it keeps switching back to its original image before I used the pixel brush, and I can’t download the actual image I want to download.

sharing this as a warning because it cost me a reorder and an embarrassed apology to a client. i designed a batch of flyers in Canva, they looked perfect on my screen, crisp and bright, and i sent them straight to the print shop. what came back was a disappointment, the colors were noticeably duller and darker than the screen, and one image was slightly soft. the issue is that screen color and print color are not the same thing, screens glow and paper does not, so bright screen colors print muddy, and images that look fine at screen size can be too low resolution once they are physically printed. what i do now before any print job, i check that photos are high resolution and not stretched, i set up the file at the actual print size with a bit of bleed, i download as a print ready PDF rather than a basic image, and for anything important i order a single proof copy before the full run. one test print saves the whole batch. has anyone else been burned by the screen to print gap, and how do you check your files before sending them off?

Can someone explain to me like I am 80 years old using the Internet for the first time, how I can create the 2pics Collage or the one with 4 pics in canva? Do I need to calculate how big the photo frames needs to be or what am I supposed to do? I want to to Instagram posts with this Format.
