3 Tools To Create Social Media Visuals


Do you create custom images for social media? Looking for tools to streamline the design process?

There are some new desktop design tools that make it easy to quickly create multiple graphics for social media.



Why Create Images via Desktop?

If you want to batch your visual content, desktop tools are the way to go. While mobile apps are convenient, they aren’t as efficient or easy to use when you want to create more than a few images.

Canva and PicMonkey, two of the main tools people use on their computers, have evolved over the years. Canva is now even available in multiple languages, making it the ideal solution for users around the world.

However, some of the visual content creation tools launched in the past year (some in recent months) offer even more options. While you can’t start an image from scratch with complete customization, their automation functionality is perfect for batching social media graphics.

Here are three new desktop visual content tools and how to use them.

#1: Relay

Relay is template-driven. It was the first tool that allowed people to create images without having to do much design. There’s a free version of Relay available that includes the Relay watermark. Jump to the paid version to remove the watermark and get extra features.

#2: Designfeed

The new tool on the block, Designfeed, is all about automated graphics and an excellent user experience. The templates are beautifully designed and showcase the images well. Plus the font combinations are outstanding. Designfeed is easy to use. Simply enter a little data and Designfeed will create an endless number of designs from which to choose.

#3: Adobe Spark

Adobe Spark, which launched in May 2016, allows you to create different types of visuals: posts, pages, and videos. Note: Adobe Voice (previously only on iPad), Adobe Slate (an app that creates beautiful web pages from your phone), and Adobe Post (a popular image creation app) are now part of Adobe Spark.
