### "A great solution" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 November 2019* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sometimes as a designer I need resources to streamline and to be able to shape different projects. I am a user of this type of websites since I download many images, vectors and so I can also find inspiration.
>

> 
> In general it is good. But if they improve every day their options could be better.

It provides a checkerboard pattern, which allows graphic designers to determine image backgrounds and flatten them to white or other colors.\n\nIllustrators can check the input quality of images for any defects, select custom colors from the palette to be applied in vectorized results, and reprocess the images and edit them manually.
