Do you need a suitable poster to promote your product or business? Are you worried about the cost of hiring a designer? Or are you concerned about how to create a good poster yourself? DesignCap solves all those problems.

DesignCap is an online logo maker with a large number of resources that anyone can use to create posters online.

DesignCap contains hundreds of templates, various photos, stylish fonts, well-designed clipart and beautiful backgrounds. With DesignCap's poster maker, you can fully use and improve your creativity in stunning posters.

Recently, DesignCap, a free online poster & flyer maker, was released. I was invited to test and review it. I previously wrote an article about DesignEvo, which lets you easily design logos yourself.

Here are some of the main features:

Hundreds of professionally designed templates;

A wide variety of stock photos, clipart images, text fonts and backgrounds;

Powerful editing tools: cropping, resizing, rotating, layer management, duplicating, undo / redo, etc;

It's a fun little programme that lets you easily create beautiful posters / flyers for all kinds of events and occasions.

Templates

As a tool, DesignCap has prepared hundreds of poster templates to simplify your design process. Whatever type of poster you need, music, party, wedding or festival posters, there is plenty to choose from.

You can choose a suitable poster here. All the templates have been well designed by DesignCap's professional designers and are fully customisable to inspire you. You can easily choose a preferred language, adjust its elements and customise it completely to suit your needs.

Photos

To make things easy for you, DesignCap allows you to import Facebook photos, upload your own photos from your computer and even search through 580,000 images on the internet. When designing the poster, you can choose a good photo yourself as a background or as the subject, making the poster unique.

Decoration tools

In addition to templates and photos, DesignCap has also put together lots of clipart, background images and text for you. There are many useful clipart items in different categories, including icons, funny clipart, nature clipart and so on.

You can also search the internet for 93,000 clipart items to decorate your poster.

Another important part of a poster is the background. The DesignCap designers have created many useful background images in a wide variety of styles, such as colourful, simple, elegant and so on.

A complete poster also cannot do without text, of course. There are many stylish fonts available that you can use to decorate your poster with text.

Conclusion

DesignCap is designed to help people who need posters. It requires no download or registration. You don't have to worry if you're not familiar with design. DesignCap is so powerful and easy to use that even a beginner can create beautiful posters online.

As a final plus point: DesignCap is free! So what are you waiting for? Give it a try!

I immediately take your word for it that it is a great program but I always wonder then: 'Where's the catch? How can this be free? What is the business model? "
And those 580,000 photos from the internet, are they free of copyright?

@Martin: I asked about it, I'm also quite curious myself!

@martinphili: the now familiar story of free online services. See on the website under the heading Privacy, they provide users' data to third parties.

My suspicion was indeed already that familiar story. The question was more rhetorical than an actual request for information It’s important that everyone realizes that with free services, there’s a catch somewhere. What I’m really curious about is the story behind the copyright of those photos.

Besides data trading and advertisements, this is partly also a gateway to their other products (www.fotojet.com and www.pearlmountainsoft.com), which do require payment (one-time or subscription).

@martinphili: free photos (without the "burden" of copyright) are simple: if they don't have those photos themselves, they can immediately make use of the photos on www.unsplash.com.
Anyone can get (and put) photos there for free use for both personal and commercial purposes.

Antwoord van Sophia van DesignCap:

As for the copyright issue, all the preset resources on the website owned by us, and users can not copyright any unmodified resources like templates, clipart, shapes, etc.

And the other integrated photos from Pixabay and online clipart are free and can be used for personal and commercial use as claimed on their websites.
