BeFunky Launches Intuitive New All-In-One Creative Suite For The Web
PORTLAND, Ore. (PRWEB) May 15, 2018 -- In the midst of celebrating their ten year anniversary, BeFunky, the pioneers of powerful-yet-simplified photo editing and design tools, today announces the launch of their much anticipated and newly reimagined Photo Editor, Graphic Designer, and Collage Maker, perfectly packaged in a browser based all-in-one Creative Platform. Rebuilt from the ground up on WebGL, the new BeFunky features a stunning, easier-to-navigate user interface, more intuitive tools and functionality than ever, and smart changes that create a streamlined creative experience for their 45 million users worldwide. It’s also unparalleled in speed and more accessible than ever before, having dropped it’s Adobe Flash-based foundation.
“From the beginning of BeFunky, we’ve always been about creating powerful photo editing and design tools that are approachable. After learning what our users want when it comes to their creative experience, we’ve been able to make their workflow more seamless than ever,” explains BeFunky CEO Tekin Tatar. “Now that we’ve rebuilt on WebGL, we finally have the perfect platform to offer an all-in-one web app that makes editing photos, creating collages, and designing graphics with more intuitive tools and capabilities possible. It’s a true game changer.”
BeFunky’s new Creative Platform is more intuitive than ever, as the team behind it has pinpointed areas of stress or complication and turned them into opportunities to let the web app do more for the user. Uploading is now as simple as dragging-and-dropping an image into the interface, saving the user time. It will now Autosave projects that users are working on to ensure that their work is right where they left it, even after they close or refresh the browser tab. There’s even a Save As Project feature for saving photos, collages, and designs in editable format, so the user can take a break and come back to their project at a later date to continue editing. These smart features allow the user to edit at their own pace, gain more flexibility in their workflow, and ultimately frees them from the complications that have previously hindered the photo editing process.
All three web apps within the Creative Platform are so tightly synced that within one click, users can easily toggle between them to work on a design, edit a photo, and create a collage simultaneously. A new Image Manager tab was added to all three platforms so that when users upload a photo, it is universally accessible from within the Photo Editor, Collage Maker, and Graphic Designer. This improves workflow for the user, saving them from having to upload images multiple times. In addition, users can access millions of free stock photos from Unsplash and Pixabay to use in their projects, searchable and uploadable right from within the Creative Platform, saving them an extra trip to a stock photo site.
“We wanted to create a photo editing and design experience that just works. Plain and simple. Something that our users can depend on for whatever their workflow might be, with tools that let them accomplish exactly what they’re envisioning for the end result,” says Tatar. “The new BeFunky takes care of important details like autosaving artwork and universally storing images, so the user can focus on what they do best: creating amazing photos, designs, and collages.”
Since all of BeFunky’s tools are built in-house, from scratch, the team has developed a method for building professional-grade photo editing and design tools that work in such a way that anyone can use them without prior knowledge. Joining their already vast library of photo editing features are a whole new set of Photoshop-level tools that, true to BeFunky’s nature, have been simplified for people of all skill levels. The Graphic Designer features precision snap lines, an expanded library of free-to-use fonts, and design templates created by professionals, easily customizable for a variety of high quality design work. In more complicated software, tools and features like these require a certain level of knowledge to use, but in BeFunky, they’ve been made to function so easily that everyone can benefit. Taking the learning curve out creates a less intimidating environment for users to enhance images and create designs at the same quality as a professional.
“What sets BeFunky apart is our attention to detail. We’re inspired when we see what more complicated software is able to accomplish and we want to give that same level of quality to our users in a non-complex environment,” explains Tatar. “There shouldn’t be an intimidating learning curve when it comes to editing photos or creating designs for people like small business owners and bloggers, who don’t always have time to learn a new program. We always strive to make the process of creating approachable, so there’s always something for everyone.”
