Course Image

I am almost halfway through the Course creation, and I keep bouncing on the course image. After searching the Quality Standards and some "solution" on this board, i am still unclear about the following points:

1- Can the image have the Course Title displayed on it;

2 - what is the use of the course image VS promotional Welcome video that always appears on the course sale platform? I understand the course image becomes the image of reference for communications/ payments/ instructor message board etc for the course, but where else does it appear?

I searched and reviewed many course images and all of them have text, /Course title on it. So i am totally confused with the requirements since it specially says NO TEXT, but also " Text should not cover image" Sounds dissonant to me! Help please.

    Hey @zenyogi
    , good questions!

    1. As a general rule, you may use text in an iconic way such as a logo or product name related to the course. I'd suggest, however, you reach out to policy@udemy.com for more details or specifics about your individual situation.
    2. We use course images for all onsite/mobile "course cards." If your course appears in Search, in a recommendation unit, in a Frequently Bought Together carousel, etc., it will display your course image. We may also use your course image in offsite advertising.

    Hope this helps!
