# Welcome to 9Pic

> Your journey from signing in to delivering your first event photos in minutes.

## What This Guide Is

The **Dashboard Guide** is your hands-on reference for running events on 9Pic. It walks new organisers from signing in to delivering their first set of processed photos, and then doubles as a deep reference for every screen, tab, and toggle in the dashboard.

If you have never signed in to 9Pic before, follow the four pages in **Start Here** in order. Each one builds on the previous one, so by the end you will have a live event with real photos.
