Can I make a stream background for free?

Yes. A free account gets 30 credits a day, up to 200 a month, and one stream background on this page costs 15 credits, so you can make two a day for free. It comes out as a PNG, 1824 × 1024 px.

How is a background different from a stream screen?

A background stays behind your webcam or model while you stream. A stream screen, such as Starting Soon or Be Right Back, fills the screen when you are off camera; make those on the Stream screen page.

Can I use it behind a VTuber model?

Yes. Say where your model sits, such as 'center left calm for my model', and that area stays low-detail.

How do I add it to OBS?

Download the PNG, add an Image source at the bottom of your scene in OBS Studio or Streamlabs, and place your webcam or model source above it.

Can I make an animated background?

No. You get a still PNG image, not a video loop.

Can I change one thing after it's made?

Yes. Tell FontVibe in chat what to change; only that part is redrawn.

Do I get an editable template?

No. You get a finished PNG image of your background, not an editable template file or a font.
