- Create at least one high-quality preview image (min 1280×720 px, 16:9 preferred)
- Write a clear title, description, and list of included files
2. Open Creator Studio
Go to your Account menu → Creator Studio → Submit new item.
3. Fill in details

- Long description with full feature list and usage notes
- Category and tags (up to 10)
- Price (set to $0 for free items)

Click Submit for Review. The review team typically responds within 3–5 business days. You'll receive an email when your submission is approved, rejected, or requires changes.
Managing Published Items
In Creator Studio → My Items you can:
- Edit descriptions and preview images (no re-review needed)
- Change the price
- Release new versions (triggers a light re-review)
