Happy Friday!    Wanted to drop a quick note to remind you that Anaplan Live! is next month and registration is active!    This is a great opportunity to understand what has been solved with Anaplan and how companies see themselves continuing to use the tool in the future.   The sessions aren't too long and are spread between two days (November 9th and 10th).  As with most Anaplan events,  this is a great chance to learn how other teams have solved key issues in their business model.    KEY RECOMMENDATION: the interactive sessions are great for any level of model builder.    Hope to see ya there!  ...

Hey y'all!    Wanted to do an appreciation post for images in the UX.  With a new update of URLs being integrated into the UX platform, I figured it would be a good time to talk about maybe some best practices with using images in Anaplan.  What I love about this new URL integration is that it works great when it's just to add a pop to a page -- especially if you're in an ALM environment (No revision tag necessary!).     However, I would say that using a module with the URL link is probably more efficient in the long run if the image is going to be re-used throughout the App -- unless you're some sort of savant who know the URLS for all your links in Imgur (which seems to be the preferred means of creating URLs when not working with an IT department).   One thing that usually is a total "Wow-Moment" for me is when I've been able to incorporate dynamic images.  If you can create URLs for each item in a product hierarchy, or for every department in a department hierarchy, it can really add a personalized touch that makes someone in my audience more engaged.   Anyone else have some best practices that they utilize with Images in Anaplan?  ...

Hey there everyone!     Just wanted to start a trend of welcoming our newest members: @MerveGollu , @SevdaK , and @jupiter !    If any of you are comfortable, please introduce yourself and let us know your favorite Anaplan feature.
