Presswell Art Direction helps simplify how custom image thumbnail sizes are defined, cropped, and generated.
Features
<ul>
<li>Control image cropping with hot-spots</li>
<li>Select custom image sizes in the WordPress editor</li>
<li>Dynamically generate image thumbnails</li>
<li>Delete all cached thumbnails</li>
</ul>
Image Cropping
Presswell Art Direction adds the ability to set a focal point hot-spot for all images in the media library for fine grain cropping control. Simply identify where the subject of the photo is and the plugin will crop all custom image thumbnails to ensure it stays in frame.
Thumbnail Sizes
Presswell Art Direction adds an easy to use interface for defining and editing custom image thumbnail sizes. Custom image sizes will be available for selection when inserting images in the post editor.
Dynamic Images
Presswell Art Direction prevents custom image sizes from being generated automatically. Only standard WordPress thumbnails will be generated when a new image is uploaded. All other image sizes will be dynamically generated when called via code or requested via URL, saving server space when many custom image sizes are defined. Note: URL based image generation requires that <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks" rel="nofollow ugc">pretty permalinks</a> are enabled.

Digiwidgets is an online image-editor that makes it easy for anybody to add and edit images on their wordpress website. While Digiwidgets incorporates popular image-editing tools such as filters and cropping, it also has more photoshop-style features such as history-tracking, multiple layers, google fonts, and its most important feature – predefined templates.
The template feature is for designers/developers who create WordPress websites for clients and want their clients to be able to easily add/edit images on their website. No more distorted, squashed or wrong-sized images. With Digiwidgets, you can create a ‘template’ for each image area on a website (bio pic, header image, content slider…) so your clients can create their own images without your help and without expensive photoshop software.
Features
<ul>
<li>Predefined templates and one custom template (specifically sized spaces to fit images into)</li>
<li>Multiple layers (of images and text, easy to change layer order)</li>
<li>Google fonts (add interesting and fun fonts to your images)</li>
<li>History tracking for the life of the project (can undo all the way back to the beginning… even if it started months ago)</li>
<li>Filters (including grayscale, brightness, and contrast)</li>
<li>Resize and rotate images and text</li>
<li>Flip images horizontally or vertically</li>
<li>Add borders to images or the entire canvas</li>
</ul>

DigiWidgets Image Editor

I have given DigiWidgets to many designers to test out with their client base and I have heard nothing but good reviews and praise for DigiWidgets. As the developer, I work towards fixing bugs anyone might have or even listen to suggestions that they would like DigiWidgets to do for them.



DigiWidgets perfect for Designers!

You need to pay for literally everything.

Bad, very bad
