Creating Social Media Images?

11 years ago

Canva is a free online resource that is worth checking out. They have a bunch of premade templates. Different networks, sizes, etc.

  I have only made and downloaded several images. Their designer is drag and drop... very simple. I think they have some items you can purchase, but a good number of free template designs (w/background images).

I have found them really helpful in the past, you sign up for free and then create your visuals (pictures, infographics etc) and download them as images or pdfs. of course, if you have a paid subscriptions, they offer more resources and customisation options.

Thanks

Canva is really great. Additionally, if you can afford, be sure to explore graphicriver, creativemarket and alike to purchase graphic content and use. For stock photos, explore ShutterStock, BigStockphoto.

What's the best program for creating images for Social Media...there was one WSO last month but I can't find the thread now.

If I can find something it will cut the photoshop time down etc.

Thanks

I made this image in about 10-15min just using Word and Paint.

In my opinion these are two very overlooked free tools that can dramatically cut down your image creation time in the most simplest way....just cutting and pasting.

That is amazing! I am assuming all these different fonts are from word? Are you using 2007 ?

Thanks

I personally recomment Piktochart. I've been using it for a while now to create graphics. Its very easy to use! You might as well want to sign up for stock photo membership because its very useful.

Thanks

You can also consider using the following 3 cool tools as well:

(1) Fotor - Free & easy-to-use tool that lets you create collages, image quotes, slide shows etc from your own photos. You can also apply multiple image effects as well.

(2) Picmonkey - Choose from dozens of editing tools to create cool images, overlays, collages etc. Some of them are free while others are for premium users.

(3) Share As Image - Lets you upload background images, apply filters and add watermarks to turn your text into images. Comes with both free & premium versions.

Using Paint would be an idea, sure, but it kind of limits your horizons, there's only a few things you can do with it.
I also use Paint, don't get me wrong! But I only use it for "small stuff", not creating images for sharing on social media
