Pick a sign.

Each sign is a single full-screen page meant to be held up on camera or filling a Zoom tile. Big lettering, distinctive backgrounds, instant read — designed to pop in a gallery view alongside other faces. Click any sign to open it full-screen, then share your screen or use it as a virtual background.

For your Zoom tile

How to use these as Zoom tiles

Easiest: open the sign in a browser, full-screen it (F11), and use Zoom's screen share to share that window.

Better: use OBS or mmhmm with the sign URL as a browser source, and route the output as a virtual camera.

For the slideshow / dashboard: these are designed to run on a second monitor next to your main camera — arrow keys jump panels, space pauses the slideshow.
