Introduction

Hello everyone! In this video, I'm going to show you how to generate your own NFT collection without writing any lines of code. We will be using our NFT generator, which allows you to create NFTs step by step. We will cover everything from generating NFTs with metadata to uploading them to IPFS, generating a smart contract, and minting your NFTs. So let's get started!

1. Uploading Layers to the Website

To begin, you need to upload your layers to the website. There are two ways to do this: you can upload PSD files directly or upload images one by one. Let's start with uploading images individually. To add a new layer, click on "Add New Image" and upload your images. By default, the metadata will be the same as the name of the layer, but you can change it to your preference. Repeat this step for each group of layers.

2. Setting Metadata for Layers

In this section, we will learn how to set metadata for each group of layers and individual layers. By setting metadata, you can add more information and details to your NFTs. To set metadata, click on the "Add New Image" button and upload your images. You can change the metadata for each layer as desired. This gives you control over the information displayed for each layer in your NFT collection.

3. Uploading PSD Files

If you have your layers in a PSD file, you can upload it directly to the website. The tool will convert the PSD file into groups and layers automatically. To upload a PSD file, click on "Upload PSD File" and select your file. This is a convenient way to upload multiple layers at once and streamline the process.

4. Verifying Images and Metadata

Once you have uploaded your layers and set the metadata, it's crucial to verify that everything is correct. You can add or delete layers and groups, and also make changes to the metadata of each layer. This step ensures that your NFT collection is accurately represented and ready for generation.

5. Using Rarity in Your NFT Collection

If you want to make your NFT collection more unique and valuable, you can activate the rarity option. This allows you to set rarity for each layer in your collection. By setting rarity, you can control the number of NFTs generated with specific features or attributes. For example, you can set the number of NFTs with a yellow background color to 10. Additionally, you can skip generating items that lack rarity. Rarity adds an element of scarcity and exclusivity to your NFT collection.

6. Setting the Name and Description of Your Collection

Now it's time to give your collection a name and description. By setting a name, you provide a unique identity to your NFT collection. This name will be displayed alongside your NFTs on various platforms and marketplaces. You can also set a description, which provides additional information about your collection, its concept, or any other details you want to share with potential buyers or collectors.

7. Generating NFTs

In this step, we will generate our NFT collection. For this tutorial, we will generate 100 NFTs with disabled rarity. You can adjust the number of NFTs according to your preference. After setting the limit for the number of NFTs, click on the "Generate" button to start the generation process. The tool will create your NFT collection based on the uploaded layers, metadata, and any specified rarity.

8. Downloading and Unzipping the NFTs

Once the generation process is complete, you can download your NFT collection as a zip file. Click on the "Download" button, and the zip file will start downloading. After the download is finished, unzip the file to access your NFTs and metadata. This step allows you to review and ensure the correctness of your generated NFTs.

9. Uploading NFTs to IPFS

To make your NFTs accessible and store them securely, we will upload them to IPFS (InterPlanetary File System). Click on the "Upload to IPFS" button, and the tool will upload your NFTs to the IPFS network. You can preview your uploaded NFTs on IPFS to verify their availability and accessibility. This step ensures that your NFTs are ready to be displayed and traded on various platforms.

10. Generating a Smart Contract

A smart contract is essential for minting and managing your NFTs. In this step, we will generate a smart contract using the provided tool. Click on the "Generate Smart Contract" button, and the tool will generate a smart contract for your NFT collection. This contract will allow you to mint your NFTs and perform various functions related to your collection.

11. Filling in Smart Contract Details

To finalize the smart contract, you need to fill in some details. Set the name and symbol for your collection, which will identify your NFTs when they are traded or viewed on platforms. "Max supply" refers to the maximum number of NFTs that can be minted. "First mint amount" represents the number of NFTs that will be minted when the smart contract is deployed. "Max mint amount" is the maximum number of NFTs that can be minted in a single transaction.

12. Deploying the Smart Contract

To deploy the smart contract, we will use Remix Ethereum. Copy the code of the smart contract generated by the tool. Open Remix Ethereum and create a new file with a .sol extension. Paste the code into the file. You can review the code and make any necessary amendments. Once you are ready, compile the smart contract by clicking on the "Compile" button. This step ensures that the smart contract is error-free and ready for deployment.

13. Minting NFTs

After deploying the smart contract, you can mint your remaining NFTs. Open the mint function in the contract, and you will be prompted to set the wallet address and the number of NFTs you want to mint. Specify the wallet address and the desired amount, then confirm the transaction. The smart contract will mint the specified number of NFTs, making them available for ownership and trade.

14. Viewing Minted NFTs on OpenSea

To see your minted NFTs on OpenSea, go to the OpenSea website and connect your wallet. If you are using the testnet network, go to testnet.opensea.io. Once connected, you will be able to view your minted NFTs. Open your collection page, and you will see the name of your collection and the minted NFTs. This step allows you to showcase your NFTs to potential buyers and collectors.

15. Editing the Collection

If you want to make changes to your collection, you have the option to edit it. For example, you can update the logo of the collection. Click on the logo image and select the desired image. This step allows you to customize and enhance your NFT collection based on your preferences and the feedback received from the community.
