Puts me off a little when a design focused website has low-quality images on the site... I'd suggest making any images/mockups etc on full display to highest quality you can :)

@bentossell Hey Ben, agree. We have an updated landing page to be released very soon! We are not in the business of making excuses, but we are a very small (and dedicated) team. If you get the chance to give it a try, please do let us know what you think of the core technology :)

if you have multiple tabs open they change the title of the page to "Hey, come back!" - I like that hack ;D

@duanewilsonsf haha we love that people like that :-) Hope you enjoy using Desygner!

I was thinking of building a canva competitor. however I couldn't figure out how to beat them. what makes this better? also, the ability to import and use non-creative commons images in your work is dangerous. I don't like putting that responsibility on the creator to know they can't use the images.
Mariana Aguiar
Hey @thejeremycarson, we're focused on developing a stable and open platform where you can expect to render files with pixel perfect precision, search through millions of royalty-free images, and import elements from existing PSD and PDF files. We also allow people to design and edit from any device, including mobile phones. Our plans and how we see the technology being used in the future is quite different from the other players in the online design market. Regarding the images, we aim to be more than a platform where people come to create generic social media posts, so the ability to import your own content is essencial to us.

Looks like a very interesting product. Downloaded on my phone and played with the web version as well.
Mariana Aguiar
Thank you @haseeb! We are still in beta, so please let us know what we can improve on!

Hey #ProductHunt followers, we just released a big update of our web version www.desygner.com @DesygnerApp. Leave your feedback here :)

This reminds me a lot of Canva. With a ton of more free options.

Hey @dredurr, thanks for checking Desygner out! We're focused on developing a stable and open platform where you can search through millions of royalty-free images, and import elements from existing PSD and PDF files. We also allow people to design and edit from any device, including mobile phones. Going forward, our plans for Desygner and how we see the technology being used are very different from the other online design tools in the market :) Hope you enjoy using the Desygner and let us know if you have any suggestions.

what is your plan to monetize this, I couldn't find any pricing details.
Mariana Aguiar
Hey @saijo_george, we are always going to keep a free version with loads of free content. Our monetisation plans include team collaboration and module upgrades. But at the moment, our sole focus is to improve the core product and nail the user experience.

Come on guys ... you don't need my Facebook friends to log me in!
Mariana Aguiar
Hey @benjaminmock, we were originally asking for Facebook friends to facilitate the design collaboration process. I am a big spam hater, so we were never going to use anyone's friends information unless they wanted to invite their friends to co-design/view a project. But I hear you - this could have been scaring people away. We changed it and the new sign up process no longer requests this information. Check it out www.desygner.com :)

Wait till Guy Kawasaki will see this one :)
Mariana Aguiar
Hi @adigold1, thanks for your comment! The market space for online design is huge - 84% of communications will be visually based by 2018. Personally I have a lot of respect for Guy Kawasaki and the Canva team, but our plans for Desygner and how we see the technology being used are very different from other online design tools :) Hope you enjoy using the Desygner!
