What’s New on Picmaker
Here are some features we released and bugs we fixed - for you. Stay up-to-date with the latest updates and enhancements in Picmaker.
Last year, we launched Love Updates to celebrate our passion for DIY design. It was awesome 😎
Now, we’re even more excited because we’re extending our passion to social media marketing too.
Picmaker has evolved into a complete suite of social media marketing tools. Pretty cool, huh❓
We’re ready to revolutionize the social media space with this update 🚀 , which is packed with exciting features that cover everything from content creation to scheduling.

It has become highly complex and it is kinda BIGG problem.
You’ve got so many different types of Content, Channels, Campaigns, Engagements, Metrics, and different tools.
The list goes on and on 😐
Yet, there’s no way to manage them all from one single platform 💡
That’s where we come in.
Introducing Picmaker Social❗️
The social media scheduler for smart marketers.
You can now totally manage all your social media accounts from Picmaker Social.
How cool is that?
This includes Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and even Pinterest!
And hey, hold on to your hats, because we’re planning to roll out integration for your absolute favorite TikTok, YouTube, and WhatsApp super soon.
Timeline allows you to plan and schedule content days, weeks, or even months in advance.
In short, you get a holistic view of your entire social media plan 🗓️
This means you can focus on creating great content while we take care of the rest.
The Media Library feature is where it’s at❗️
You can store and organize all your images and videos in one spot.
That way, you can get to them easily and use them on all your social media accounts without any hassle 👇🏻
Creating social media posts just got way easier with Picmaker Social.

If you are looking to create a promotional flyer for your business in 2022 you’ll need to consider asking these questions:
We’ve answered all of it in this video 👇🏻
Can I maintain margins while designing on Picmaker?
An image that neglects using margins – is a mess.
It looks rushed and communicates that you don’t care about what you are selling. It all boils down to 1️⃣ simple thing: If you don’t care, why should your audience❓
This is why we have our Margin Feature to rescue you from such fiascos. Think of it this way: it i as simple as using a box shape to give us a boundary to work to.
Can I link my Picmaker design to an external website?
You can now add a hyperlink 🔗 to your text, pictures, icons, or elements within your Picmaker design❗️
No need to open a new tab and manually type a link. No need to scroll through numerous slides to show a reference.
Just add hyperlinks to any design element in your artboard.
Yes, it’s that easy. ANY design element❗️
Does Picmaker have a Print Bleed option?
With our hottest new update, you can now activate Print Bleed on Picmaker.
Print bleed is the part of the document 📄 that’s beyond the trim edge of the page. It’s ⅛ of an inch, serving as an allowance for potential cutting misalignments.
If you don’t add this allowance, you’ll risk having white gaps on the edges of the final product.
Think of it as a universal instruction to cut off until this part of the document, leaving no white gaps to the edge of the paper. Also, this serves as a guide for the designer itself to extend the image or elements of the design beyond the trim line.
That’s all for now. Stay tuned for more updates❗️
