Siempre regreso a tu canal en busca de nuevas ideas. I LOVE YOUUU 💖 THANKS FOR BRING US YOUR KNOWLEDGE 🌹🌹🌹😘

Hi Dinata! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Is it free? Or have to pay for downloading?
@@javalearner4227 Canva has free and paid options. I created the site in the video using all the free options. I think there are plenty of free images on Canva to be able to make a beautiful site without purchasing anything. In the video, I show how you can tell which images are free and which are paid.
I love youuuuuuu 💖😍😘. I like so much your angelical voice 💖
Good tip.Thank you now i can make my google sites more fun.i really love Canva.The tools in Canva make my work more easy.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Really helpful, amazing
Thanks for watching!
Thank you!
Thank you for watching! I hope this information is helpful.
Great tip! I was able to create a button that is readable. (The text on the built-in Google Sites button is 11 point and cannot be increased, with a color scheme of black on olive green (my site's theme colors). Using Canva, I made a rounded green shape with white text in a large font, saved the image and added to my Google Site with a link.
Thanks for watching, Judith! Your Google Site sounds beautiful!
Wowwwww, creo que tú respondiste un interrogante que tenía, y era de cuál es el tamaño de banners y de los headers para Google SITES. It's amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩 la verdad, no se me habría ocurrido usar canvas para diseñar los header y banners para Google. Cuando yo vea que medidas tienen Los header y banners, regreso aquí, para compartir lo que aprendí.
Hi Pirata! Thanks for watching and commenting. I definitely recommend using Canva to create your headers and buttons. I have tried many other programs and ways of doing it and Canva is definitely the easiest way to make your Google Site look professional. I'm sure your students will love what you create!
Hi Vestal! Thank you so much for sharing. This has been very helpful and I love that your explanations are clear and concise. Thanks again!! Keep up the good work. Love from Malaysia
Hi Hidayah! Thanks for watching! I am always excited to read that our channel is supporting educators around the globe!
@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom May you keep growing and spread the good vibes! :)
THANK YOU so much for your video! I could not figure out why my banner was looking so dark until I saw you click the stars to get rid of the overlay!
Hi Carol! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you so much...
Thanks for watching! Hope your Google Site turns out great!
Thanks a lot ❤
Thanks for watching!
With a customer banner ,its much easier to add the text "Welcome" within google sites not within the banner text will resize and stay center when in mobile. You can change the anchor position of your image to show the parts you need. Top bottom, right , left etc .
When using buttons allow small margin, padding to all sides of your images before saving to avoid clipping.

THANK YOUUUUUUU........ TEACHER......................

Thank you so much for this awesome video!
Do you mind telling us which application you used here to capture your screen?- Well done, ma'am!
Thank you!
Hi! Thanks for watching and commenting. I think the program I used is the free version of Flashback. It's not the best screen recorder but it gets the job done.
thank you so muchh maam
Thanks for watching!
I'm not a teacher I'm a grade school student and I'm look to make a big website called skillspree so...this helped
Thanks for watching!
Thanks🥰
Thanks for watching!
Great Video! Can we center the Header menu? because right now when we publish our site Header menu is on the far right hand side and logo on the far left hand side
Thanks for watching and commenting. If you clicking the settings cog to left of the header, you can change the navigation to "top" or "side." At this time, if you have the navigation set to the "top," it will automatically go to the left-hand side. Google is always making updates though so maybe this is something they will update in the future.
@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom thanks for confirming. What do you think about the SEO in GOOGLE sites ?
Great, helpful video! Just FYI - Teachers can upgrade to a FREE Canva Pro account by using their school email. :) Then the backgrounds can be downloaded as transparent. They'll also be able to upload any fonts they'd like to use for their designs. :)
Thanks for sharing!

“Hey teachers”
The non teacher audience: “yes that is me 👁👁”
After creating my new google sites, i couldn't find the "edit button" usually located on bottom right corner of the screen. How do i edit my website again?
Thanks for helping!
Hi! Thanks for watching. Usually, when I want to edit a site, I go to sites.google.com and make sure I am logged into my Google account. When going to that URL, you should see a page that lists all of the Google Sites you have made. Click on the one you want and it will immediately take you into the editing mode for that site. Hope this helps!
@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom It works! Thank you!!
@@acer950 yay!
Brilliant video...tqsm
Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope your Google Site turns out amazing!
Excellent
Hi Thomas! Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope this video tutorial helped you create your own custom google site!
@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom It was very helpful. I did a website for a Recreation Council using the program. I found your tutorial very helpful.
Can I add Ads section in Google site?
You save my mood. Hahahaha thanks for this video...
Thanks for watching!
When I want to save my buttons from canva, it keeps saving as zip even though I chose JPG or PNG. Can someone help??? 😩 edit: I got it. If u have the same problem, u should seperate the download and make them in seperate files. It's a lot of work but I need it to work anyways
Thank you for sharing what you found. This is helpful!
why my image blurry when i do the button at goggle site?
It's hard to say for certain without being able to see what is happening on your end. Save your images as PNGs. PNGs usually appear clearer than JPEGs. Hope this helps!
Bravo!
Thanks for watching!
Nice
Thanks for watching!
Amazing one...
I need a help... I need a tutorial on how I can make other teachers upload homework on this google site.
Hi! Thanks for watching. I am happy to help, but I am not certain what you are looking for. Do you want other teachers to be able to post homework assignments to the same Google Site or are you looking for ways for students to upload their homework assignments? If you're looking for ways for students to upload assignments, I recommend using Google Classroom.
@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom
Exactly madam.... Is it possible in google site???
@@phubdorji6806 Google Sites are more of a way for teachers to present and share content with students. At this time I do not know of a way students can upload their work through a Google Site. You could provide a link on the site where students can go to upload the work through Google Classroom. Then, they would only need to click and would be take immediately taken to where they can upload the assignment.
@@phubdorji6806 maybe convert your new Google site into an app for downloading things.
Thanks a lot😊
Thanks for watching!
Perfect

I don't understand why you added the text to the image, rather than using the Sites text box?
CANVA BETTTER BE SPONSORING THIS VIDEO.
Hi Angela! Thanks for watching. Canva is not a sponsor of this video. I've tried a few different options for customizing my Google Sites and have found this one to be the easiest to use and most professional looking.
Video starts 3:00
Does anybody know how to create a plain box? not a button, just a box where you can put text inside. I saw a difrent person do it, so i'm sure it is possible.
Hi! We have another video here on the channel where we go over the basics of creating a Google Site, including adding textboxes. You can find that video here: th-cam.com/video/RL0BeWlth04/w-d-xo.html
