Design a product process starting with your backend image

Discussion Forums Ideas & Suggestions

I was in my backend image folder and saw a powerful photo of mine that I had completely forgotten about and thought… wouldn’t it be cool / I wish I could select that photo and start a product design process right from there. 

So my idea suggestion: the alternative design process of designing a product starting with your image / graphic right from the backend image folder it’s in. I would call this our reverse design process.  Maybe the way this could work is: you select your graphic or image you want to start with, then maybe be brought to a search box for the blanks page to select the product you want to put this on and continue the design process as usual. 

You could consider this an alternative step 1 in using the process of transfering a design to another product… except in this case we are starting the process from any of our image folders.

This is not a suggestion as a reverse quick create… this is for one off product creation.

So design community what do you think?

Not sure how this is so different from design transfer? Isn’t that basically what it does. You see a product  you’ve made and think hmmm I could make a great pair of socks from this scarf,  I could use this postcard image on a mouse pad, etc. - do a design transfer, tweak and voila new product. Key words description and all carry over.

Many moons ago we were able to start creating from our image folder … just as you summarized. Don’t know why it was removed.
