After you submit your custom intro request, your video is generated and delivered directly to your email. This page explains the delivery process, what to expect, and how to troubleshoot any issues.

​
How delivery works

Your custom Stranger Things intro is delivered through a simple, automated email process:
1

Submit your request

Fill out all required fields on the Stranger Things Intro Creator form, including your email address and chosen resolution.
2

Video generation begins

Your custom intro enters the rendering queue. The server processes your text customizations and generates your video at the selected resolution.
3

Email is sent

Once rendering is complete, an email is automatically sent to the address you provided with your custom intro attached or linked.
4

Download and enjoy

Open the email, download your video, and start using your custom Stranger Things intro.

​
Email address requirements

Provide a valid email address to receive your custom intro:
You can use any valid email address where you can receive attachments or download links:
  • Personal email (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.)
  • Work or school email (if allowed for personal use)
  • Custom domain email
Use an email address you check regularly so you don’t miss your delivery.
Your email address is used to deliver your custom intro video.
Provide a valid email address where you can receive attachments or download links.
Each intro request requires one email address. If you want to send the same intro to multiple people:
  1. Download the video after receiving it
  2. Share it manually via your preferred method
  3. Or submit separate requests with different email addresses
Submitting multiple requests for the same intro uses server resources. Consider downloading once and sharing the file yourself.

​
Delivery timeline

Understand when to expect your custom intro based on various factors:
Standard delivery: Shortly after submissionYou’ll receive your custom intro via email shortly after submitting your request:
  • Higher resolutions (4K) generally take longer to process than lower resolutions
  • Delivery times may vary based on server load and queue length
  • Most videos are delivered within minutes to an hour
Actual delivery times depend on current demand and the resolution you selected.

File delivery method

Troubleshooting delivery issues

If you don’t receive your custom intro, try these steps:
Automated emails sometimes get filtered as spam:Steps:
  1. Open your email spam or junk folder
  2. Look for an email about your Stranger Things intro
  3. Mark it as “Not Spam” if found
  4. Check your inbox settings to allow future emails
Add the sender to your contacts or safe senders list to prevent future emails from being filtered.
Confirm you entered your email correctly:Common mistakes:
  • Typos in the email address
  • Missing @ symbol or domain
  • Wrong domain extension (.com vs .net)
  • Extra spaces before or after
If you made an error, you’ll need to submit a new request with the correct email address.
Some email providers have restrictions:Issues to check:
  • Maximum attachment size limits (4K videos may exceed limits)
  • Security settings blocking video files
  • Inbox storage quota full
  • Firewall or corporate email restrictions
If your email provider blocks large attachments, the email may be rejected. Try using a different email service for 4K videos.
Sometimes delivery takes longer than expected:
  • High server load during peak times
  • Large queue of pending requests
  • Complex rendering for 4K videos
If it’s been less than an hour, wait a bit longer before troubleshooting further.
4K videos can take up to 30 minutes or more during busy periods. Be patient before assuming there’s a problem.
If all else fails, submit a new request:
  1. Use a different email provider (Gmail, Outlook, etc.)
  2. Ensure the email address is correct
  3. Submit a new request with the same customizations
Gmail and other major providers generally have high attachment limits and reliable delivery.
