Microsoft Designer is a graphic design tool powered by artificial intelligence that allows you to create stunning visuals and graphics for different platforms. With Designer, you can create professional quality social media posts, invitations, digital postcards, logos, website banners and more. Starting today, all features in Microsoft Designer are available for free to everyone.
One of the major limitations of Microsoft Designer was the size of the images it could create. Until recently, it only allowed users to create images in a square (1024 x 1024) format. Although the square format may suit different needs, users have asked for more size options. Based on user feedback, Microsoft has now added support for two additional sizes:
- Portrait (1024 x 1792)
- Landscape (1792 x 1024)
The new portrait and landscape options will make Microsoft Designer even more useful for users as it will allow them to create desktop backgrounds, images for PowerPoint presentations and more.
Recently, Microsoft announced two brand new features for Microsoft Designer. First, the new Frame Image tool can add a custom AI-generated frame to any image. Second, the new Collage Creator feature allows you to add up to ten photos, and Designer will intelligently arrange them in a neat layout and surround it with a custom-designed frame. Both the Frame Image and Collage Creator features are now available on the Microsoft Designer website in English for anyone with a Microsoft account.
Image Frame and Collage Creator can be used to create anything from wedding and birthday invitations to vision and mood boards.
In addition to adding new features to Microsoft Designer, Microsoft is also integrating it into its products and services. In April, Microsoft announced Designer integration in the Windows Photos app, allowing users to edit their photos in Designer with one click. In May, Designer was integrated directly into Teams chats and channels, allowing users to create images during their work chat sessions.
