Moodboards are a great way to easily save, collect, organize, and share your favorite works and moments on Cohart.
What are Moodboards?
There are two main types of moodboards:
- Private Moodboard: This is the default location for your saved artworks/moments. This moodboard is private to you; and you can edit the content inside anytime, but you cannot delete the moodboard or edit its name.
- Custom Moodboard: You can create as many moodboards as you like. Think of these as your personalizable boards with a unique theme or purpose. You can use them to give visibility to your favorite artists, gather inspiration, and collaborate with friends.
Refer to our Community Guidelines to ensure your content contributes to our safe and respectful community.
