User Experience: FOTOR Online Photo Editor
Christmas is just around the corner and themed decoration is now everywhere be it at physical stores or websites. In order to make sure our audience and Facebook fans would feel the joy of the festive seasons as well, we have decided to put up some simple Christmas artworks. to get things started, we will be putting up a Facebook Page Cover and it couldn’t be any easier than using a preset design template.
Traditionally, we would try to look online for open source templates for Adobe Photoshop. This route is definitely not for everyone unless they have an active subscription of the pricey Adobe CC suite. Enter FOTOR Online Photo Editor – a versatile online photo editing application that is powered by HTML5.
FOTOR User Experience
We kick start the design process by looking through the available design templates. I mean, unless you’re extremely talented in making lines look interesting, otherwise, this is the simplest method to get things rolling.
They have plenty of categories from photo cards to social media specific templates. The resolution has been optimised for their use case so you don’t have to worry about cropping or alignments.
We have chosen this template and start working on it. The online tool has plenty of preset materials for users to customise the design.
In this case, we have uploaded our own logo artwork and position them in the template. The process is straightforward and there is even snapping guidelines to assist in positioning.
After we’re done with the design and the artwork is ready to be exported.
There we have it, a cover image that is fitting of the Christmas spirit.
Final Words
Granted, it may not be as powerful as Adobe Photoshop or any desktop class image editor. It is not even meant to replace them altogether. What FOTOR brings to the table is versatility. User can work on graphic designs without having the need to installing the photo editor on their computer. Just fire up the browser and the web app is more than capable of handling all the user requests.
Our experience with FOTOR has been pleasant and it doesn’t take long until our new Facebook Page Cover is ready to be uploaded. If you’re not good in design or lack of the artistic sense, this kind of simple to use tool is extremely helpful.
