Crello is a visual online editor with which users can come up with a design for advertising and promotional materials using one of 10,000 ready-made templates. To do this, it will be enough to select the product you like and customize it for yourself: replace the text, select the background or change the color of the graphic elements. Photos can be found from a built-in search from the Depositphotos collection, where 65 million images are available. All images and graphics used once or repeatedly can be stored in your own profile to add them to your other designs an unlimited number of times. The finished design can be exported to JPG, PNG and PDF version for high-resolution printing.
In Crello, you can create your own graphics based on 30 ready-made formats: posts on the social network, illustrations for newsletters and brand pages, postcards, business cards, posters, flyers, gift certificates, banners for advertising online and print advertising. You can apply filters and other visual effects to images, delete or add design elements, change background images, and use a set of intuitive editing tools. It is not necessary to study the technical requirements for each case - the size and format of each design is already optimized and ready for use. The pattern set is constantly expanding.
Using Crello is free - it is enough to register or sign up for the Crello website through Facebook. Only additional design elements that the user wants to purchase will be paid - while the price for them will not exceed $0.99.
