In May, BrandBird introduced many major (and even more, smaller) handy features that can ease your design workflow.
In a nutshell, the core features are:
→ Unsplash integration for images
→ Pixelate sensitive information
→ Export with transparent background
→ Chrome Extension beta (!!!)
But let's have a deeper look together!
🌅 Unsplash Integration & Image Layers
You can search & use free Unsplash images for your graphics. Add them either as a background image or **drumrolls** an image annotation layer.
Yes! Now, BrandBird supports image layers for annotation.
🕶️Pixelate sensitive data
Easily hide your sensitive information with the new pixelate feature.
Its main benefit is that it's not reversible so it's more secure than the default blur option.
🔍Transparent Background
Now you can completely remove the background of your graphics with a single click.
Really useful when you want to:
→ Use the image as overlays above other graphics
→ Import the image to other design tools, like Figma
→ Create transparent landing page graphics
🖱️Drag-n-Drop images
Flawless image import process. Simply drag them inside the editor and drop them at the image you want to replace.
🔥Brand new Chrome Extension (Beta)
The BrandBird Chrome extension is getting a major update.
It's still in beta but already includes many new handy options:
→ Capture visible tab
→ Extract elements from the page
→ Highlight a specific element
→ Create OG images for a page
Excited to share the beta version with anyone interested to check it. Please, send me an email and I’ll share the installation instructions.
That’s all for now! Talk soon!
