Artboard 2 is positioned as an alternative to more complicated and expensive vector drawing software.

Spend more time drawing and less time searching for elusive commands. Overflowing with new features and a tidy user interface, its speed and responsiveness are complemented by smart techniques for interacting with drawing objects. With its affordable price point and plethora of in-app and online resources, Artboard 2 puts quality graphic design tools squarely within reach of new and experienced creatives.
Free in-app resources make Artboard 2 all the more appealing. Artboard's built-in library of over 1900 styles and clip art include a wide assortment of maps, shapes, color swatches, and more. And these aren't just standard clip art images - they are crisp vector graphics that you can completely change the size, color and design of to make your own. Flexible templates help small businesses, students, hobbyist and 2D game designers get started on their projects quickly, such as making business cards, posters, pixel perfect icons, and right-sized social media graphics.

The following are just some of Artboard's many new features: Completely new and modernized user interface improves performance and simplifies access to every command New object features, such as Divide objects and Skew objects, and more Enhancements to Smart Shapes, such as individually squared corners on round-cornered rectangles, makes them even smarter N...Artboard is a vector-based drawing tool for Mac that helps you create your own greeting cards, flyers, posters, and many other. By using this graphic utility, you have access to a comprehensive set of drawing tools, various templates, and a wide range of clip art images.

The program brings you an intuitive interface, so any user would be able to handle it with ease. If you wish, you can customize the app's appearance by hiding the toolbars you don't require and give the interface a clean and simple look.

A good thing about working with this drawing tool is that it brings you templates which makes creating business cards or flyers a fast and easy task. Your only job is to enter the card's details (business card: name, address, etc.), add some clip art images if necessary, and the card is ready to be saved or printed.

Another aspect I like is the fact that the program allows you to create and manage layers of the artwork you create. You can lock the layers once you're done with the editing, make duplicates, and change their order.

To conclude, my belief is that Artboard is a great drawing utility as it brings a wide range of tools to help you get the results you require. This app is very simple to use, supports various image formats, and comes at a reasonable price.
