Snappa – A Cloudeight Site Pick
Today’s site of the week ought to appeal to 82.3% of you. That’s the percentage of our subscribers who love to work with graphics. Of course, it’s based on an EB International Poll, and she does not bother polling anyone. She uses my top hat, writes numbers on pieces of paper, then picks three numbers, averages them, and adds “point 3” to it so it looks official. See what I have to put up with?
I spent a goodly amount of time on this site playing around with graphics. But instead of trying to make a graphic to dazzle you, I tried to make a graphic to ingratiate myself with EB. But I know I’ll fail… no one ingratiates themselves with EB. Go ahead and try. I dare you!
Anyway, in my futile attempt to please her and thus get a paycheck from the famously parsimonious EB, I created this flattering graphic.
Ain’t it cute? Imagine a t-shirt like that? Or perhaps a bumper snicker… don’t correct that EB, that’s what I meant SNICKER. Feel free to download the above graphic and send it to EB and see if she’ll like you more than she does me!
How about another one? This time without the surly influence of EB.
And we all love Cloudie, right? Wouldn’t that make a great t-shirt!
Do you think you’re the only one who loves this part of these articles – where I stop my oral – or in this case- written – perambulation, and bring in the developers to top things off and tell you what the heck this Cloudeight Site Pick is good for? I love it too! And it’s okay. I know you’re tired of my rambling by now. I get it. I work with EB. I have tough skin,
I can take it. I’m used to it I tells ya! Yes, I can take a hint. I herewith present you with some words from the developers of our site pick… Snappa – not to be confused with the once popular sugary drink Snapple.
Take it away, developer people:
“A Brief History
Snappa was founded in 2015 when we noticed that a lot of small businesses struggled to create quality online graphics. The tools available were not only complicated, but they were incredibly time consuming. Hiring a graphic designer was also out of the question.
Since then, we’ve been optimizing our graphic design tool to be as quick and easy to use as possible.
Today, Snappa is used by thousands of marketers, entrepreneurs, and non-designers to create a wide range of graphics for social media, display ads, blog posts, and more.
The TeamSnappa is proudly headquartered in Canada. We’re a small, but hard working team that spans across the country.

At least 82.3% of you will.

If you’re a serious designer and do stuff for money or fame, you can create unlimited graphics and downloads for $10 a month.
Now it’s time to say goodbye and send you off to make some eye candy or dazzling graphics. Or should I say it is time for 82.3% of you to take a trip to Snappa and see what you can do?
Thanks for the scientific poll, EB. You’re a peach!
