Decorate Your Amidakuji Event Page: Branding with Themes, Images, and Descriptions

When you run an amidakuji for a company event or a campaign, have you ever felt that the participation page looks the same for every event and falls a little flat? No matter how much thought you put into the draw, if your brand colors and the spirit of the event don't come through, it's hard to get participants excited.

With the event decoration feature in Amida-san's Organizer Plan (Pro), you can freely customize the participation page with theme colors, custom images, and a description. This article walks through how to decorate your event page and put your brand front and center.

The "every event looks the same" problem

Most lottery tools have a fixed design for the participation page. That's fine functionally, but it leaves something to be desired when it comes to setting the mood for an event.

What happens with a bland participation page

• Your company's brand colors and the character of the event never reach participants
• When you run several events in parallel, it's hard to tell them apart
• There's nowhere to communicate the event's purpose, notes, or how to take part
• It looks like a "draw thrown together at the last minute," with no sense of occasion or trust

The look is part of the participant experience

The participation page is the first thing participants see when they encounter your event. Whether or not it's polished makes a big difference in whether it reads as "a carefully prepared event" or "a routine draw." Decoration isn't just window dressing -- it's an element that builds reassurance and anticipation for participants.

Amida-san's event decoration feature

With the Organizer Plan (Pro), you can decorate the participation page with three elements. The organizer sets them up on the edit screen, and the finished decoration is shown to every participant on the participation page.

Set the mood with theme colors

Just pick one of five themes (Default, Cherry Blossom, Ocean, Night Sky, Forest), and the background and text colors of the entire participation page switch to match. They're built around tasteful, understated pastel tones, so they never feel out of place in a business setting.

• Cherry Blossom for welcome parties, new-hire training, and other warm spring occasions
• Ocean for summer events and fresh, breezy campaigns
• Night Sky for anniversary parties and moments that call for a sense of occasion
• Forest for calm study groups and workshops

Choose "No decoration (Default)" to return to the standard look at any time.

Get the message across at a glance with custom images

Upload your company logo or a campaign visual to display it in the header of the participation page. JPEG, PNG, and WebP images are supported.

A brand logo signals "this is an official event" and builds trust, while a campaign image conveys what the event is about at a single glance.

Communicate the purpose of the event with a description

You can add a description of up to 1,000 characters. Write whatever you want participants to know -- the purpose of the event, important notes, how it works, even the dress code. Putting it all in one place ahead of time cuts down on explaining things on the day and helps participants take part without confusion.

Only the organizer sets it up; everyone sees the result

Only the organizer who created the event can set up the decoration, so there's no risk of a participant accidentally changing it. The decoration you configure is shown to everyone on the participation page, and it stays available from the event details even after the draw is over.

Ways to use decoration

By mixing and matching themes, images, and descriptions, decoration fits all kinds of events. Here are a few examples.

Add some flair to welcome parties and company gatherings

Pair the Cherry Blossom theme with an event banner image, and you get a festive participation page like the one at the top of this article. Note the start time and how things will run in the description, and participants won't be left guessing. For company events and seasonal events, you can create just the right atmosphere for the occasion.

Decide the seating on the spot and show it in a diagram

For an amidakuji that assigns numbers, attach a seating chart as a custom image. Participants look at the number they drew and immediately find their table and seat in the chart. The draw and the seating guide both fit on a single page.

Set a calm mood with the Night Sky theme, and even when seating arrangements at a social or dinner are tricky to decide, you can assign seats fairly, right on the spot.

Guide online events and communities

For online events and community management, you can put how-it-works and important notes in the description. Participants can move ahead without confusion, and organizers spend less time explaining.
