Publishing and Community Engagement
Once your creation is complete, you have several options: save it locally only, export it for external use, or publish it to the YouArt Community.
The community is not just a gallery; it is also a library for inspiration and a hub for learning workflows.
Why publish to the community?
In YouArt, a work is not an isolated result; it is a visible, learnable, and extendable creative process. Once your work is approved and published, other users can see:
- Your final result.
- The models you utilized.
- Your creative path (optional).
This means your creative methodology becomes content itself, and your workflow holds intrinsic value.
How to publish your work
After completing an image or video node in the workflow editor:
- Select the final node.
- Click Publish Template in the top-left corner of the canvas.
- Fill in the project information and upload your local video (if applicable).
Typically, you will need to provide:
- Title: the name of your work.
- Description: a brief summary of the project.
- Tags: style, genre, or keywords.
- Workflow visibility: choose whether to share your logic.
Hiding vs. sharing workflows
When publishing, you can choose between two modes.
| Mode | Best for |
|---|---|
| Show Results Only | Commercial projects, client work, or creations where you wish to keep your methods private. |
| Show Full Workflow | Tutorials, sharing methodologies, or experimental style showcases. |
The benefit of the second mode: when the workflow is public, other users can view your node structure, understand your creative path, and even continue creating based on your nodes. This significantly boosts your influence within the community.
If you keep the details hidden instead, the published template still shows the result, and visitors see a notice that the author has chosen to hide the workflow details.
How to properly understand YouArt
YouArt is not a tool that "thinks of ideas" for you. It is a creative system that makes your ideas structured, visualized, and reusable, and publishing is the step where that system becomes shareable.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I publish my work to the YouArt community?
After completing an image or video node, select the final node, click Publish Template in the top-left corner of the canvas, then fill in the project information and upload your local video if applicable. You will typically provide a title, a description, tags, and your choice of workflow visibility.
Can I share a finished result without revealing my workflow?
Yes. When publishing you choose between two modes. Show Results Only keeps your method private, which suits commercial projects, client work, or any creation where you do not want to reveal how it was made. Show Full Workflow is the alternative, and it is better suited to tutorials, methodology sharing, and experimental style showcases.
What can other users do with a published workflow?
When the workflow is public, other users can view your node structure, understand your creative path, and even continue creating based on your nodes. If you hide the workflow details instead, the template detail view tells visitors that the author has chosen to hide them.
What information do I need to provide when publishing a template?
A title, which is the name of your work; a description, which is a brief summary of the project; tags covering style, genre, or keywords; and a workflow visibility setting that decides whether you share your logic. The publish dialog also lets you pick a preview image or video for the template.
