With its new video creation tool Say Thanks, Facebook lets users create personalised video cards for friends

New York: In a bid to push more users to share videos, the social networking site has launched a personalised video creation tool.

Named Say Thanks, the tool lets users put together personalised video cards for your friends on Facebook by combining preset themes, their own posts and photos. This allows users to make shareable, customised videos to post on theirs and their friend's timelines. There is no limit to how many personalized videos you can create and share.

To create the video, visit facebook.com/thanks, select a friend for Facebook to generate a preview of the video.

"You will have the ability to select a different theme and edit photos and posts that represent your friendship," explained a blog post by Facebook.

After users finish making their video, they have an option of adding a personalised message before posting it to their own timeline, and tagging their friend.

The service is available on desktop and mobile in English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish.
