So today, from the bottom of my heart, I\u2019d like to thank you for being a part of our community and for using PicsArt to create amazing art. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The inspiration for PicsArt came to me one day when I found my 10-year-old daughter crying. When I asked her what was wrong, she held up her laptop and told me she had shared one of her drawings online and received a bunch of rude comments. Her desire to share her art was met with such negative feedback that she was quickly discouraged. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I decided I wanted to create a space for artists like her, where everybody could feel free to express their creativity. A place with excellent photo editing and drawing tools that anybody could use to make awesome pictures. I wanted it to be free, and I wanted it on mobile so anybody could access it, any time, any place. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And most importantly, I wanted it to be a positive space, where everyone could learn, create and share art, experiment and collaborate. That was in 2011, and that\u2019s how PicsArt was born. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then, it\u2019s been a whirlwind. We started out as an Android-only app, later expanding to iOS and Windows. When we noticed that people were organically using the #FreeToEdit hashtag to invite others to edit their photos, we understood that we had succeeded in making PicsArt a collaborative place. And we embraced it. We turned the hashtag into part of our product. And look what PicsArt has become \u2014 a thriving ecosystem of collaborative art, and a totally unique place to create.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So today, I\u2019d like to thank all 100,000,000 of you for making PicsArt what it is today \u2014 a thriving, positive, artistic space. We are a community of artists, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> artists, and we truly couldn\u2019t have done it without you. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>PicsArt <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b><i>photo editor<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i>, <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/collage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b><i>collage<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i> maker and <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/picsart.com\/stickers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b><i>sticker<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i> maker is all about you.
