This Web-based app lets you create custom, professional-looking posters in minutes based on a large curated library of themed templates. ‘DesignCap’ includes an editor made specifically for creating posters & a lot of stock images & other resources are at your fingertips to help you make engaging poster art.
Graphic design apps can be a pain in the butt to master & quite often all we want to do is put together something simple like a poster. If you have to learn all the ins & outs of a complex design product like PhotoShop or InDesign you’ll be spending days or weeks just learning to do enough to get by, but to get good at is like a full-time job. Not to mention the arm & a leg it’ll cost you to get the software.
DesignCap is quick, easy to use, free, & to the point. To get started with DesigCap just go to the project Webpage & start using the editor. Choose a template from 100s available. Some of the categories available are advertising posters, sale posters, wedding posters, event posters, sports posters, holiday posters & a lot more.
After adding your template you can customize it by adding your own photos or artwork & by searching through 1000s of stock images that you can use. Also available are elements for touch-ups from a large library, including fonts, shapes, clip-art images…
A large number of professional editing tools can be used to further customize your posters. Some of the features are adjusting size, position, rotation, changing text font, color, effect, alignment, applying specific background & managing layers.
According to the product page, the app is free to use, & you are taken to the poster editor if you click on the ‘Make a Free Poster’ button.
DesignCap was developed by the China-based company PearlMountain, which was founded 10 years ago & is well known for other graphic design & editing apps, like FotoJet, a free graphic design & collage maker.
