Creative Hub

What is the Creative Hub?

Creative Hub is your centralized image library. Every image generated across ILLIXIS — article heroes, social graphics, carousel slides, banner ads, landing page visuals, ad previews, lookbook photos, and more — is automatically captured and organized into one searchable collection.

Key capabilities:

• Browse all images across 8 category tabs
• Favorite images to build a Brand Asset Library
• Search by prompt, alt text, or source type
• Click "View in context" to jump back to where any image was created

Accessing Creative Hub

1. Navigate to Create in the left sidebar
2. Click Creative Hub

Browsing Your Images

Category Tabs

Images are automatically sorted into 8 tabs:

| Tab | What's Included |
|-----|----------------|
| All | Every image across all sources |
| Favorites | Images you've hearted |
| Uploaded | Images you uploaded manually |
| Content | Article hero images, inline images |
| Email | Email header images |
| Social | Social post images, carousel slides, quote graphics, freestyle images |
| Advertising | Banner ads, banner backgrounds, ad preview images |
| Pages | Landing page images, website section images |

Each tab shows a count badge so you can see how many images exist in each category.

Search

Use the search bar to filter images by:

• Generation prompt — the text used to create the image
• Alt text — the description assigned to the image

Image Cards

Each image card shows:

• Thumbnail preview
• Source type badge (e.g., "Article Hero", "Banner", "Landing Page")
• Heart/favorite button
• "View in context" link

Favorites and Brand Asset Library

Click the heart icon on any image card to favorite it. Favorited images appear in the Favorites tab.

Use favorites to:

• Mark approved brand images for easy reference
• Build a curated collection of your best visuals
• Quickly find images you want to reuse across campaigns

Favorites are per-user — each team member can curate their own collection.

To unfavorite an image, click the heart icon again.

View in Context

Every image in Creative Hub links back to the feature where it was created. Click the "View in context" link on any image card to navigate to the source page:

| Source Type | Where It Links |
|-------------|---------------|
| Article Hero | Article view page |
| Social Post | Social Studio captions page |
| Carousel Slide | Social Studio (filtered to the parent article) |
| Banner | Banner Studio editor |
| Landing Page | Landing page preview |
| Ad Preview | Advertising concepts page |
| Lookbook | Product Lookbook gallery |
| Email Header | Brand settings page |

If the source content has been deleted, the "View in context" link won't appear.

How Images Are Captured

Images are registered automatically when generated. You don't need to do anything. The pipeline hooks are built into every generation task:

• Content generation → article heroes and inline images
• Social Studio → social post images, carousel slides, quote graphics
• Banner Studio → banner ads and backgrounds
• Landing Pages → OG images and all section images
• Website Builder → all page section images
• Advertising → ad preview images
• Product Lookbook → try-on generation results
• Email → email header images

When you delete content (e.g., delete an article), the associated images are automatically removed from Creative Hub.

Uploading Images

You can also upload your own images to Creative Hub:

1. Click the Upload button in Creative Hub
2. Drag and drop or select files
3. Supported formats: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, SVG
4. Maximum file size: 10 MB per image

Uploaded images appear in the Uploaded tab and are also visible in the All tab.

Troubleshooting

Images not appearing after generation:

• Wait a few seconds — images register at the end of the generation task
• Refresh the page
• Check if the generation completed successfully (no errors in the task)

"View in context" link missing:

• The source content may have been deleted
• Some older images registered before the backfill may not have complete source tracking

Favorites not saving:

• Make sure you're logged in
• Favorites are saved per user — other team members won't see your favorites
