What’s New on Picmaker
Here are some features we released and bugs we fixed - for you. Stay up-to-date with the latest updates and enhancements in Picmaker.
Last week we thanked all the incredible women out there in the world who’re crushing it💃. If you haven’t watched our video for International Women’s Day, then shame on you! 😄 Just kidding, watch it here.
Did you know that 14 March is Pi Day? 𝛑 Well, what the hell is that? Ask the math lovers. Because the value of Pi can never be calculated. Yes, it is rounded up to 3.14, but it is, actually, infinite. Like our love for you. ❤️ And, it was also Albert Einstein’s 143rd birthday.
We care about you more than the math lovers care about Pi. How do we show that? With feature updates 🥳
Enjoy the exciting updates of this Fortnight 👇
Have you ever been in a situation when you download all the slides in a presentation and notice that one of the slides needs to be reworked? 😅
That pain is real. What’s even worse? Downloading all the slides just for the sake of one.
We get it. We always feel the pulse of our users. So, here we go.
Introducing “Specific Slide Download” 🥁. Now you can choose to download a specific slide from your presentation design.
That’s not all. You can also set a range to download – like 1 to 6 slides. This way, you can present only your finished designs.
The download section is getting advanced 🚀 over time. And we are happy to bring a lot to the table.
What if the design elements like objects and text can be linked 🔗 to a website or another slide? Fun, isn’t it?
No need to open a new tab and manually type a link. No need to scroll through numerous slides to show a reference.
Just add hyperlinks to any design element in your artboard. We said it right. ANY design element!
Interlink for better reference 😇
Picmaker template search bar is a powerful engine that helps you to find a relevant design from thousands of templates. You know that.
The search bar is now available inside the workspace 🥳. You can find the right template for your design right from the sidebar.
It’s handy and extremely helpful if you change your mind to choose a different template while designing. And, we’re working on making it even better!
We launched our affiliate program last month to support our users and influencers to make money using Picmaker. We are excited 🤩 to see that many are making the best use of it.
In case you need a hand to join our affiliate program, here is a detailed blog that shows you how to register, a deep view of the commission structure 🤑, and eligibility.

You might have heard the term “Color palettes” while working with colors.
But what is a color palette❓
An inevitable tool in the graphic design world that you must know to become a pro designer 👑
Where to learn and how long it takes to master the tool? – Just 2 minutes.
Watch this quick tutorial on how to create a color palette in Picmaker.
Yes! You can be more aware of the design’s elements, their dimensions, and placement with our hottest new feature – the ruler.
Considering different screen resolutions is a pro tip to present your design flawlessly. Now you can double, triple, and quadruple the resolution while you download the design with Picmaker!
When it comes to aligning things on a page and you have an element selected, you can always enable Guides from your artboard settings in the File menu.
That’s all for now. Stay tuned for more updates!
We knew it! Los Angeles Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in a tight game to win Super Bowl LVI. In a game that wasn’t decided until the dying moments, the Rams secured victory to seal the deal on their second Super Bowl title after 1999.
Phew, what a way to start the week! 💪
Elsewhere, it has been a busy February for us so far. We’ve been developing new features every day to make you keep coming back for more.
So, let’s roll! ⛸
First up, we’ve got you the ‘Feature of the Fortnight.’ Aaaaaand that is – Yay! We’ve launched our affiliate marketing program.
So, for those of you who’re interested in selling a fabulous DIY Design product here’s your ticket to glory – Picmaker’s affiliate link!
Go ahead, tell your audiences about Picmaker, and you stand a chance to win tons of dollars in commissions. 🤑🤑🤑
We’re putting together a detailed blog on how to get enrolled in Picmaker’s affiliate program, so watch out for that.

Remember how you got rapped on knuckles for not maintaining margins while writing?
Well, that’s why we brought Margins to Picmaker. Now, you know where to draw the margins for your designs.
Staying on the lines of margins, we’ve also gotten you the Print Bleed feature.
We know it is near impossible to print exactly to the edge of the paper.
That’s why you can use Picmaker’s Print Bleed to print your designs on oversized papers and cut it to size while your design ‘bleeds off the paper.’
So many of you reach out to us every day, and we love you for that.
That’s why we’ve enabled you to chat with us whilst you’re working on your artwork. Go on, fire away – bring us all your queries, and we’re glad to help you out.
Well, it’s not just compression pants that are in vogue. Picmaker’s ‘Compress File’ feature is becoming famous too. 😆
Now, you can compress your designs and reduce their file sizes while downloading.
(Your computer memory will thank you for that!)
No matter the type of design elements. Be it a frame or a collage.
Just flip it. Now you got the control of changing the orientation of frames and collages.
We are happy to bring you more options to unleash your creativity.
Being organized is being in control. But steering clear of an unorganized workspace is tiresome in graphic design.
We get it. And what do we do about it?
Here comes the option in the File menu to move your design directly to your desired folder from the workspace. So, no more clutters, no more chaos!
We talk about our AI-based MAD button which suggests different unique designs.
The intelligence is not just limited to the MAD button.
Now, Text Prebuilts change the text color automatically based on the background. The text changes to white for the dark background and black for the light background.
Save time and spend more on creativity!
For all those of you wondering how old Picmaker 2.0 is, here’s a fun fact.
We’ve just completed one year, and to celebrate that, G2 surprised us with a sweet announcement – we were ranked #20 in G2’s Top 50 Design Products of 2022.
The award is determined by G2’s proprietary algorithm that is based on verified user reviews on G2 and publicly available market presence data. They further explain how their algo works:
“G2 scores products and vendors based on reviews gathered from our user community, as well as data aggregated from online sources and social networks. We apply a unique algorithm (v3.0) to this data to calculate the customer Satisfaction and Market Presence scores in real-time.”
Nevertheless, we’re over the moon to win this award. It goes to show that if you keep your heads down and keep your users/customers happy, anything’s possible.
February is the month of love. That’s why we’ve got you covered with our newest launch of hundreds of Valentine’s Day design templates.
