Already Saved So Much Time and Money!

If you are like me and have a vision for design projects, but don't know how to make it happen, or just need ideas and templates to complete graphic design projects, this is for you. There is a review incentive, but this is a straight-up review. In less than two weeks, I have already done one logo and 7 other projects from banners to thumbnails to gig images. Saved a lot of money and time. The mad button and ability to do it just for particular elements e.g. fonts or colors is awesome. The inspiration from tons of templates is everything! Here's some great features I have gotten a ton of value from:

Snap grids
Huge photo and image library
Tons of Templates
Resizing Images
The Mad button and individual AI variations of colors and fonts
Folders to organize projects
Full hex color picking
Duplicate image or object or project
Documentation and Tutorials
The undo/redo feature
Intuitive layer features
Unlimited downloads
Ability to upload own images
Intuitive interface for novices
I haven't use workspace or Brand Kit yet, but they look good.

Here are some things that either I haven't learned to do yet, and are features, or could be future improvements:

Snap grids are great! But I don't see a measurement ruler option (unless I just missed it)
Can remove backgrounds of images, but what about transparent backgrounds for logos?
If the above are features, then they are not intuitive.

Would like to see in the future:
Ability to copy an element from one slide to another on same project.
Ability to take one slide in a project and start a new project
Ability to copy and paste from the hex color box
Ability to use the mad ai for just one selected text box and font while not changing others.
Transparent background slide

The above is nitpicking, though I do hope they are future features.

Here is my one major gripe: While you get free and premium images. Elite images are a whopping 15 dollars each. At least offer a volume discount... or a 5 image package or something.

Though overall for all of the premium credits and free images included, the amount of images included is truly awesome. Great value for those.

This is a great software and an overall great value. You don't have to be a designer or expert to quickly create awesome graphics with this software. Definite buy recommendation from me. Especially for the lifetime deal.

Hey devwoco,

Thanks for taking the time to leave us such a detailed review. Reviews like this absolutely make our day. We're a small team and reviews like this push us to make Picmaker better for you, every day.

I'll answer all your queries in order below

Snap grids are great! But I don't see a measurement ruler option (unless I just missed it)

- We are working on this and you should see it coming LIVE this year.

Can remove backgrounds of images, but what about transparent backgrounds for logos?
If the above are features, then they are not intuitive.

- You can download logos with a transparent background with the following steps

1. Go to download
2. Select filetype as 'PNG'
3. Check the 'Transparent background' box
4. Hit download

Would like to see in the future:
Ability to copy an element from one slide to another on same project

- You can do this by clicking on the element and using the (Crtl+C, Ctrl+V) options if you're on windows. Or the Cmd+C, Cmd+V on a macbook.

Ability to take one slide in a project and start a new project

-This is a neat idea. I'll add this to our roadmap so that my team can take a look at it. Here's the ticket I've raised for this feature request -> https://trello.com/c/x3Pg9CeT/115-ability-to-start-a-new-project-by-selecting-one-slide-inside-picmaker

Ability to copy and paste from the hex color box

-Yes, you can do that inside Picmaker. Click on the 'selected colours' and you'll see the hex option below.

Ability to use the mad ai for just one selected text box and font while not changing others.

-This is a request we have received from a ton of other users too. You should see this coming LIVE this year.

Here is my one major gripe: While you get free and premium images. Elite images are a whopping 15 dollars each. At least offer a volume discount... or a 5 image package or something.

We understand your concern about Elite Images. But we don't own these images. We are just partnered with organizations who own these images and they choose to charge a premium for these images. With that said, we'll try to include discounts and bring them together as packages.

I hope that answered all your questions. Please do let me know if you have any other questions. I'll be more than happy to help you out.

Happy Designing :)
