A new month means new features, and in today’s release we’ve prepared some valuable improvements to the way users are managed in the image bank. We’ve also refined our Insights Dashboard based on your feedback to make it more actionable and useful.

We know that many people who use Pickit on the web have been wanting to see some of the functionalities they already know and love from our award-winning Office add-in. That’s why we’ve just launched an all-new responsive company image bank webpage for a smoother and more unified user experience.  

We’re excited to launch the beta version of one of our most requested features: The Insights Dashboard.

Starting today, Pickit Business administrators have access to analytics and actionable insights* in the Administration Panel, making it easy to optimize their image bank and increase colleagues’ productivity.

*Note: The Insights page currently includes data from the Office add-in and Administration Panel on the web. Data from the Public page on the web and other channels will be added in future updates.

You use PowerPoint, correct? Maybe you even think you know it so well nothing can shock you anymore? Let’s put that to a quick test!

Attention all photographers! One of our clients–a large corporation in the banking and finance sector–is on the lookout for approx. 75 exclusive images to increase their image library. This is a fantastic chance to have your photos featured in a global brand's communication, as well as earn $40 per image. Sound exciting?

Here's what we're after: 

Some of the best things in life are in fact free. Here are 10 of them. All 10 royalty free photos are included when you sign up for Pickit Free or Pickit Business! 

Social media is a constantly evolving beast. Just as hashtags, memes, and viral videos fall in and out of fashion, so too does photography. From an old-school sepia filter to a modern monochrome edit, there are countless ways of shooting and editing your snaps to keep them on trend.

Most of us probably have pretty mixed feelings about Clipart. Immensely practical and incredibly cheesy all at once. Whether you were a fan, a hater, or both, the thing had simply passed it's use-by date. 

That said, our consumption of images just keep increasing, and these days, using visuals in order to get your message across is more or less a must.  

So, we've taken the same idea and updated it. With Pickit, you can get unlimited royalty free images right inside PowerPoint and Word. But before you start having traumatic flashbacks of black and white stick people all over the school bulletin, think again. These are up-to-date icons, illustrations and clipart images for 2017, worthy of any Word doc, presentation or spreadsheet. 

See for yourself...

There’s an art to creating those simple yet effective PowerPoints that wow a boardroom. You know the type. Sleek layouts, original images, and not a whiff of WordArt. Perfect.

But guess what? It’s not as tricky as you might think. Here’s how you can become a PowerPoint pro in 4 easy steps.
