To create an NFT you must first create the work which will become a unique digital asset. It can be a photo, a video, an audio, and you must put it in JPEG, PNG, GIF, MP3, MP4 or other format as appropriate and depending on the platform on which you go register your NFT.
Once the work is created, add it to your NFT platform. Among the most popular are OpenSea, Rarible, SuperRare and Mintable. This step allows you to register it on a blockchain and may incur costs, unless you opt for a solution allowing the free creation of NFTs such as OpenSea.
When registering for the chosen platform, you will be asked which wallet you are using (Metamask, Coinbase Wallet, WalletConnect, Phantom, BitKeep or others depending on the platform).
You can then link your NFT creation account to your collection. Here, you will be asked to provide metadata associated with your NFT, namely title, description, rarity, copies available, price, and any other related information. When subscribing to your NFT, the platform will also ask you to pay the “gas-free” or “fuel costs”. Note, however, that these costs are not the responsibility of the seller (therefore you) on certain gas-free platforms such as Rarible.
