Continuerò ad usarlo Pros L'interfaccia è intuitiva, usabile e familiare a chiunque abbia avuto a che fare con la grafica. Per absolute beginners è un pò affollata, ma il tutorial è fatto molto bene e aiuta. L'importazione dei file .sketch è immediata ed efficace. Ha tutto quello che serve per iniziare e molto di più. Non conoscendo l'originale Apple, non posso fare confronti Cons Sembra molto esoso in fatto di risorse hardware. Finchè non disporrò di un pc più prestante, non potrò utilizzarlo al meglio perchè è molto lento.

Departmental Chairperson Higher Education Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "An excellent graphic editing software for Educators!" August 9, 2021 5.0 I use Lunacy to create and edit images and graphics for the university classes that I teach. While I am not a power-user nor the ideal type of user for software like this, Lunacy is just perfect for making quick designs and new compositions on the fly. One practical example is removing the background on character images to superimpose them on another image. Traditionally one would have to learn how to use complex tools or pay to achieve great results. With Lunacy the software will do all the heavy lifting and nine times out of ten I get professional-quality results without breaking a sweat. Pros Lunacy has several excellent features that make it a very compelling tool for a broad range of users but I like the background removal feature most. At the click of a button, I am able to remove the background from photos and create new compositions without having to hire a graphic design or photo editing superstar. The results are phenomenal and I cannot recommend this tool enough. PS\*\* I might also mention that it is great to know that this is a cross-platform tool. Cons To be honest, it is hard to fault a tool like Lunacy. If I were to be nit-picky, it can take a little time to load the software on old computer systems, but to be fair, that is more of a problem with the age of the system than with Lunacy. Review Source Response from Icons8 November 9, 2021 Clyde Eugene thank you for the review! We're happy to know that Lunacy is useful for educators.
