We're feeling that glow up magic! ✨ Always a delight to craft with you!

[@jeevanicharika]

Thank you!

[@user-vh8fh9zq2b]

Becoming more organized is always a goal of mine, so I'd love a video about using Canva's folders.

[@jeevanicharika]

I'll definitely look into it. I could do with tidying up my files too!

[@ClareFlynnwriter]

I have the new interface. The keynote was awful so I gave up watching after a few minutes. I'd love a video on keeping folders and projects in order, Jeev!

[@jeevanicharika]

It was a bit weird, wasn't it. A lot of the 'new' features weren't actually new. I suspect they were aiming to wow the corporate audience, not us.

[@jeevanicharika]

PS: If you have early access, but want to use the old interface, you can turn the glow up off and on again through a toggle switch in the Settings.

[@ClareFlynnwriter]

@@jeevanicharika happy using the new one

[@EmmaBennetAuthor]

I'm so basic with my canva use lol

[@jeevanicharika]

You only need what you need, right? I'm a massive nerd, so I like playing with the animations and things.
