GBI get it's free, but... it's very bad. I get that this thing is free, and I realize I shouldn't expect top notch performance from it, but this thing was just so bad. I mean, I would try to change colors, and mind you I had nothing selected, but random parts of my art would change to that color. Not only that, but little bits would just disappear if I closed out the tab then opened it again. On top of that, the fill tool doesn't look very good, as you'd have to do touch ups around the edges, kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me. Then I had to go on a side quest to import reference photos. After that, I had the issue of duplicate objects being automatically grouped together and when I tried to ungroup them, guess what? More problems! Parts would be transported to different parts of the canvas, some even off it, and if that didn't happen the whole drawing would get moved. Overall, this site is absolutely trash, I don't recommend it, not even for just messing around.

GBAuto-save is unreliable Avoid using this for deadline-based projects! I was 6 hours into my final project this evening when I lost everything. :-( I don’t see anything in the documentation that worked to recover the work, so I’m left to start from scratch.

GBbugs but rest is good First, bug: After grouping some items, the items seem to jump around and won't reset using undo or reload If I move the screen around a bit on the graph, some lines disappear and reappear When using the color wheel, the color picker jumps around from different shades and hues. The rest is pretty good, especially for a free app. There's a good amount of creative freedom with all the functions it has.

CASketch.IO Intern Review As a recent intern at Sketch.IO, I can attest to their knowledge, experience, warmth, teamwork and consistent effort. They always had time to offer advice and clear solutions, within the context of helping me to learn a new skill. I felt honored to learn from the Sketch.IO team! Regarding Sketchpad, once I explored the icons and components, I found Sketchpad an easy to use graphics platform with lots of options. I continue to use it for wire-framing, creating logos, and personal art projects. In particular, I find the shapes an effective shortcut tool, and the drawing tools are intuitive and precise. I enjoy the clipart, (though the library could be expanded a bit). And I find auto save and file share options very clear and obvious. 'Bravo, friends!

GBExcellent business service We used Sketchpad for an installation in our museum a few years ago and couldn't be happier with the results. The team at Sketch.IO provided top-notch service and ensured we had a successful launch for our Art of Wordless Storytelling exhibit. Kids in the museum had a lot of fun painting on the touch screens and this wouldn't have been possible without Sketchpad! THANK YOU!
