Create digital backgrounds for photography and other design mediums with Backdrop Designer. Pick from hundreds of premade digital backdrops or customize your own backgrounds. This Adobe Photoshop plugin creates beautiful resolution-independent backdrops, very similar to those expensive muslin drapes you may currently have in your photography studio.
Backdrop Designer comes with over 900 pre-made Photoshop digital backdrops. These pre-made colorful backgrounds get you quickly started with your design. Pick a Texture preset from an infinite variation of colors and patterns.
Backdrop Designer backgrounds are resolution independent. This means you can apply Backdrop Designer to a file of any pixel resolution. The digital backdrop will take on the physical dimensions and the pixel-based resolution of your Adobe Photoshop file. Whether you apply Backdrop to a 4 x 6 inch, 72 ppi file or to a 12 x 20 foot, 300 ppi file, your graphic will look sharp and color perfect.
