Prnst.app – The Best Moodboard Builder for Designers

For a long time now the designers preferred go to thier moodboard building has been Adobe Photoshop, Powerpoint and the most familiar Olioboard. All of these are very suitable for the task at hand. However, they all require some time and for a novice who is new to creating moodboards, you have to worry about cleaning up images, which can drain you of time in completing projects.

Like most of you I was heartbroken when Oiloboard shutdown. I could create beautiful boards for clients and upload pictures and build rooms fairly quickly. Design Files can do relatively do the same thing, but the price…its up there even for a new designer trying to develop their brand. Then one day,  I thought I would scour the internet to find a better and more affordable way to build beautiful boards without the hassle.

My search results found Prnst.app  . It looked good, simple and the price was right to start out and learn- it was free. What I enjoy most is that it was easy to learn right out of the gate. Similar to Oiloboard but the interface is web based, very clean and the pricing is fantastic so it made it easier to go up a level or go pro. The packaging reminds a bit of my Planner 5D I use all the time.

To start off be sure to download the Prnst.app web clipper for chrome. Most board builders usually have one, but this one is wonderful because you can pick more that one item at a time. I don’t think I have ever seen that and it can even save the links to the page and item. Very handy. Prnst.app in action

You can build with ease and with Prnst.app you are able to move items from back to front, remove the background, add text to your board, add your logo to every page. The caveat to add your logo is that it has to be on a paid plan, but you could simply upload it. If you do a lot of boards like me, it would make sense to go pro.

The best thing I could say about this app is that it saves time, its cost effective and looks professional and its about the best design moodboard builder I have ever used since Oiloboard. They are in the midst of adding new features and there will be tablet apps in the future. I insist you go out and try Prnst.app today and design moodboards that impress.

Happy Designing!

Forget the Taxis Ride in Style with Uber

Since the age of seventeen I have been a independent woman. I’d would walk everywhere I wanted and needed to go, but then there would be that special day, usually pay day, when I took a taxi to get my bi-weekly manicure. The trips across the busy streets of Dallas made me feel like a chauffeured princess. It had its advantages…and disadvantages.

Once in a while there were the few cabbies that were unreliable or would pick up someone else while I was melting in one-hundred degree heat… a less than pleasant experience. Then theres that exhausting experience of riding in cabs that have that mix of strong berry air freshener and Taco Bell; you had to hold your breath for the entire trip. Fear not my tweeties because that was then, this is now. Let me introduce you to my new personal driver – Uber

Uber is a new on call driver service available now in most major cities. You have a choice.. you can ride in clean, beautiful luxury cars often reserved for the well to do or successful business man at very reasonable rates.

You get a price right up front when you select your pick up and drop-off locations; tap on the car and you are off! At the end of the ride your card is charge the exact price that is quoted. Under settings you can select a tip rate and its automatically added to your payment.
