I hesitated in purchasing Pixelied. I signed up for the free version and was impressed enough to buy the lifetime deal on Appsumo.

Is is a Canva alternative? Not yet, but I can see the potential. The foundation is in place. There are lots of good quality templates.

Pixelied has a great background remover that works very well. I tried the background on several images and it worked flawlessly on all of them.

You can also create mockups, book covers, and graphics for all the social media platforms. I believe this is where Pxielied's strength is (for now). The amount of social media graphics is amazing.

There is support for illustrations as well as a large icon library.

Once I had a chance for play around the platform for a few days I was convinced that this is a great buy.
