Learn how to create a 360° virtual art gallery using Canva templates and ThingLink. People often think that you need to have a professional tool like Adobe Photoshop to create a 360° image using graphic design. However, images with a 2:1 pixel aspect ratio can be created with other, less sophisticated presentation tools, and stitching the images together is possible, although a bit tricky.
The ThingLink team has come up with a quick and easy way to create 2:1 panoramic gallery images. You can use them to create virtual art exhibitions, various virtual events, or online exhibitions. You can copy the templates created in Canva and create your own! Now you can show off your art in your own online exhibition space. You can embed, link, share on social media, or even share it through a VR exhibition experience in VR mode.
