Don’t Post on Social Media Without These 3 Tools
Anyone not living under a rock knows that the key to achieving social media success (aka getting all the “Likes” and comments and potentially becoming an influencer) starts with a great — no, stunning— image. Whether it’s for professional or personal reasons, creating a beautiful photo will not only get your creative juices flowing, but it will also impress your followers. While it’s possible to get a flawless shot with no editing required, it’s rare, unless you’re a professional photographer. The more common way to go about posting on social media — be it Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, or YouTube — is to run it through a photo editing tool, like PicsArt’s Photo Editor, which features endless tools, like Template Editor, Text Editor, Sketch effects, Magic effects, and many more.
Then, of course, there are hundreds of filters and effects out there that can transform your shots in one click. But when it comes to creating eye-catching edits, there are also three tools in particular that you should never post without. One will remove all the background noise (and annoying photo bombers), one will add a funky backdrop to your selfies and portraits for a more stylish shot, and one will help you get in on the meme game (warning: Once you make memes, you’ll never go back!). They are all awesome for different reasons, which I will talk about below. Your friends and fans will thank you.
Remove Tool
The first tool to consider when posting to your social media channels is the PicsArt’s Remove tool. Because let’s face it, even the most perfect shot has imperfections in it. Driven by user need to quickly remove objects from photos, PicsArt created this one-tap tool that will save you hours. All you have to do is brush over the area you want to delete, click “Remove,” and the object will disappear in mere seconds. The best part is that you don’t need to be a professional editor, or even have a lot of spare time, to pull it off.
Whether it’s background clutter, unwanted text, or a logo, there are instances when you need to polish up an image — and fast. Removing objects from photos is super easy with PicsArt’s Remove tool. In just a few taps, you can get rid of anything or anyone getting in the way of your beautiful image. The last thing you want is for the world to see a disheveled backdrop in an otherwise stunning shot. That’s when the Remove tool comes into play and saves the day. Easily remove objects, like bottles, and dirty dishes and power lines and buildings, that could tarnish a squeaky clean image.
There are also times when you need to remove an ex boyfriend or girlfriend (or just anyone who you don’t want in your shot) from your photos. Sometimes strangers standing in the background of your photo can really ruin the aesthetic. Photobombing is yet another reason to use the Remove tool to your advantage. If you still want to preserve those pictures, that’s when the Remove tool becomes your go-to. These things are out of your control, but with this tool at your fingertips, you can get rid of them in a snap — and a few taps.
Change Background Tool
The next tool to consider when wanting to polish up your social images is the PicsArt’s Change Background tool. While the Remove tool gets rid of objects deleting them, the Change Background tool layers on a whole new backdrop to any of your pictures. This is a great option if you want your photo to have more of a lighthearted, less serious tone. You can choose from preset textures and prints, every color in the rainbow, or you can even add your own image! Want to make it look like you’re at the beach instead of your bedroom? Not a problem! Want to change the background of your profile pic? Do it with PicsArt’s Change Background tool. Want to add donuts or unicorns or cactus or cats or any other cute image to your selfies? Why not! As long as you have a photo of it, you can get it done. Or, for something a little more subtle, you can go the route of just changing the color of your backdrop. You can even go the extra step to give the color you love a gradient look. Basically, you can give any of your photos a way more exciting backdrop than reality. Once you post, it’s sure to elicit lots of comments and adoration.
