Creating a Project

As a PledgePool Beneficiary, you can create projects and then request funding for them.

Before you create a project, you must have completed the following:

Login into your Beneficiary account and click on the Projects tab.

Click the 'New Project' button.

The 'Create Project' dialog box will appear. Here we will fill out some basic information about the project and additional information, social links and a project profile image.

Fill in the project name and then click the 'i' button to provide a basic description.

Let's add a web site to our project profile. Click on the down arrow right above the 'username' field to see a list of content you can add to your project profile.

Select 'website' from the list and enter the project's URL into the URL field. Click the '+' button to add the website to the profile. You can add addition content by selecting the content type from the drop down list, adding the link data. Now click the '+' to add the link.

Here, you can see the website has been added, because the www icon is now visible. You can also click the 'X' button is remove the content link from the project profile.

Finally, we will add a required Project profile image to complete the new project creation.

A file selection dialog box will appear. Pick the you project profile image file.

The project tile will now display the image, info link and the web page link.

Congratulations! You have created a new PledgePool project. Once you sign the transaction, you may need to refresh the screen to see your new project.

If you click on this project again, while you are logged in as Beneficiary, the project dialog will appear with some additional features. Click 'Remove' is you want to delete this project. Click 'Request a Pool' to complete a pool request. More about submitting a pool request here. But before we submit a pool request, we're going to create a token for this project.
