Product updates

RantLayout Changelog

Simple release notes for the Maker, gallery, sharing, remix, and community features.

Version 1.1.44

Cheaper AI cutouts, and AI drafts to start from

  • ImprovedAn AI cutout now costs 2 credits (was 3) and an AI recolor 7 (was 8). Three AI cutouts a day stay free.
  • ImprovedLayouts from your words are now drafts to start from and make your own. Your included drafts are unchanged.
  • ImprovedFewer, clearer AI tools: cut out and recolor. Edges of an AI cutout can still be touched up by hand, free.

Version 1.1.43

Match your layout to your sprite, and save it to Photos

  • AddedMatch the layout to your sprite: three colour sets read from your sprite. Frames, stickers and drawn pieces take the colours; your sprite and your own pictures stay as they are. Undo brings the old colours back.
  • AddedOn phones, Save to Photos puts your PNG straight into your photos, where CapCut picks it up as an overlay.

Version 1.1.42

Cleaner backgrounds and a sticker edge for your sprite

  • ImprovedPictures saved on a plain background (black, white, a green screen or any one colour) come in with the background removed, and only the background around the drawing: black lines and white eyes inside it stay.
  • AddedRight under the canvas: Undo if you wanted the background, or cut it out if some is left.
  • AddedSprites start with a white sticker edge. Pick edge, glow, both or none, any colour, and how thick, right under the canvas or in Edit.

Version 1.1.41

Become a Supporter

  • AddedSupporter: US$12 once for a year, never renewed. A star on your name, a gold edge on your Gallery cards, a theme for your creator page, how often each of your layouts is used, and 1,000 AI credits.
  • AddedThe pricing page shows this year's goal for keeping RantLayout free, and how close Supporters have brought it.

Version 1.1.40

Say how others may use your layout

  • AddedWhen you publish a layout, choose how others may use it: free to use, credit appreciated, credit required, or don't repost.
  • ImprovedLayout pages show who made the layout and when it was published, with the maker's wishes right above Remix and Download.

Version 1.1.39

Name tags and a Discord kit

  • AddedName tags in the Maker: your @name on one of 11 labels from the library, added to the layout as one piece. Pick one under Your watermark.
  • AddedDiscord kit: a profile picture and a banner cut from your layout, ready to download from the export panel.

Version 1.1.38

Two drawings to choose from, cut out many at once, Creator without renewal

  • ImprovedA drawn layout now comes as two drawings from your words; open the one you like.
  • AddedPictures that kept their background in "My Pinterest finds" can all be cut out with one press: today's free cutouts first, then the usual credits each.
  • AddedCreator for 30 days, paid once and never renewed: US$9.90 for 800 credits and 30 drawings.
  • ImprovedThe purchase buttons say how you can pay: card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The checkout shows your own currency where it is offered.
  • FixedWhen signing in with Google, Discord or TikTok takes too long, the sign-in page now says so and that one more press is enough.

Version 1.1.37

Tools named for what they do

  • ImprovedThe Maker's tools are named for what they do: Cut out, Recolor, Clean edges, Find an area, Draw from your words, Repaint the set.
  • ImprovedSigned in with TikTok or Discord and no email address yet? The free cutouts and drawings are yours straight away; an address is only asked for when you buy.

Version 1.1.36

AI that helps you make it yourself

  • AddedAI stickers: have six separate see-through stickers drawn from your words, then place them yourself or have them arranged in one press. Every sticker can be moved, recoloured or deleted.
  • ImprovedThree free AI cutouts a day with an account, up from one, and a free account now gets an AI drawing every day instead of three in total.
  • FixedWhen the AI cannot tell which part of a picture you picked, it now cuts out the whole picture instead of stopping with an error. Picking the part again is one press away.

Version 1.1.35

More ways to sign in

  • AddedSign in with a code sent to your email: no password to make up, and no confirmation link to find. New here? The code creates your free account.
  • AddedSign in with Discord. It now creates an account on its own instead of only connecting to one you already had.

Version 1.1.34

More credits in every plan

  • ImprovedEvery plan and pack now holds more AI credits at the same price: Creator 800 a month (was 300), Creator Lite 400 (was 150), the Trial pack 200 (was 60), and packs of 1,100, 2,700 and 5,000.
  • AddedCreator Lite can be paid yearly: US$39 a year, with 400 credits arriving every month.
  • ImprovedCreator yearly is now US$79 a year, with 800 credits every month.
  • ImprovedChoosing a plan goes straight to secure checkout, with no extra step in between.
  • FixedIf you left a checkout unfinished, you can now pick a different plan right away instead of waiting for the old checkout to run out.

Version 1.1.33

Creator Lite

  • AddedCreator Lite: a smaller plan at US$4.90 a month with 400 AI credits. Unused credits roll over one month, and it includes 15 custom-drawn layouts a month. See Pricing.

Version 1.1.32

A faster home page

  • ImprovedThe home page now opens right away for most visitors instead of taking a couple of seconds on the first visit.

Version 1.1.31

Layouts get a real name

  • ImprovedA Gallery layout nobody named is now shown by what it is, such as Pink Cute Rant Layout, instead of Untitled. When you publish, the title, category and tags start from your layout's own main colour; anything you type stays as you wrote it.
  • ImprovedCreating an account with a Gmail address: Continue with Google appears right at the email field and signs you in at once.
  • FixedA layout you had drawn with AI before signing in is still there after you sign in.

Version 1.1.30

Publishing works on iPhone

  • FixedPublish to Gallery and Save & Share stopped with an error on iPhone and iPad. Both work there now.
  • ImprovedAfter signing up with an email address, the next page takes you straight to your inbox, or signs you in with Google in one tap when your address is a Gmail one.

Version 1.1.29

Start from a picture, not an empty page

  • ImprovedThe home page shows starters right under the title. Tap one and it opens in the Maker, ready to edit.
  • ImprovedThe Maker opens on a starter the first time instead of an empty canvas. On phones, Try another swaps it in one tap and Blank clears it.
  • AddedCome back later and the home page takes you straight to your layout. If a starter link replaces a layout you were working on, Bring back my earlier layout restores it.
  • ImprovedIn Sprite, Cut out with AI and Select by hand are two large buttons after you add a picture.
  • ImprovedLighter pages on phones: the logo and the decorations on the home page are a fraction of their old size.

Version 1.1.28

Try AI cutout without an account

  • AddedAI cutout now shows you the result before asking for anything: one free preview a day without an account. Sign in free and the same cutout is yours at full size.
  • AddedWhen a picture you add still has its background, the Maker offers to remove it with AI in one press. In Sprite, Cut out with AI is now the first button.
  • ImprovedAfter a download you see that the PNG is saved, can keep the layout with one press (Continue with Google brings you straight back to it), and can start the next one from there.
  • ImprovedAI layout from a few words: tap one of the example pictures and it is drawn for you, or match the colour of what is on your canvas. Typing your own words still works.

Version 1.1.27

Sign in without losing your place

  • ImprovedSigning in from the Maker no longer opens a new tab. Your layout is saved in the browser first, and after you sign in you are back on the same layout, in the place you left.
  • ImprovedThe sign-in page opens on Create account for new visitors, and on Sign in once you have used an account in that browser.
  • FixedSeveral things that looked pressable but did nothing now work: on phones the canvas button zooms in and back, and the back arrow closes the options it opened; the Maker preview and the asset cards on the home page and the Make card in the Gallery open the Maker.

Version 1.1.26

White and black backgrounds are trimmed away too

  • ImprovedWhen the Maker removes a white or black background, from an upload or with Remove white and Remove black, the layer is trimmed to the drawing that is left. Turn the cleanup off and the whole picture is back, with the drawing exactly where it was.
  • FixedThe buttons in Edit › Clean now answer right there in the Clean panel, for example when no checkerboard was found in a picture.

Version 1.1.25

AI tools no longer wait without end

  • FixedIf the AI service has not answered a cutout, recolor or repair after a few minutes, the request is stopped and you are told so, instead of showing Queued without end. Nothing is charged, and a free cutout that never ran does not use up your free try of the day.

Version 1.1.24

Cleared uploads are trimmed to the drawing

  • ImprovedWhen the Maker clears a checkerboard from an upload, the layer is trimmed to the drawing, so it is easy to grab, size and line up. Untick Remove checkerboard and the whole picture is back, with the drawing exactly where it was.

Version 1.1.23

The Maker clears fake transparent uploads too

  • AddedUpload a picture that has a grey-and-white checkerboard instead of a real see-through background and the Maker clears it for you. Your picture is stored as you uploaded it: untick Remove checkerboard in Edit › Clean to get it back.

Version 1.1.22

Fake transparent pictures become really see-through

  • AddedPictures saved with a grey-and-white checkerboard instead of a real see-through background are cleaned up when you add them to be arranged: the checkerboard is removed, white outlines and white drawings are kept. Done on your device, free.

Version 1.1.21

Repaint your saved pictures in one colour with AI

  • AddedAI repaint for your own pictures: pick a colour and the whole set is repainted in it, shapes and shading kept, and comes back as separate see-through pictures. 10 credits a set; a repaint that fails costs nothing, and your originals are one press away.
  • ImprovedPictures you add to be arranged are remembered in your browser for a few hours, so they are still there after you sign in or come back.

Version 1.1.20

Turn the pictures you saved into a layout

  • AddedArrange my Pinterest finds: add up to 8 of your own pictures at once, by choosing, dropping or pasting. White and black backgrounds are cleared, the pictures are arranged around the page, and one colour can be put across all of them. Free, and done on your device.
  • AddedIt is in the generator and inside the Maker, where the arranged pictures land on your canvas as separate layers.

Version 1.1.19

Have a layout drawn without leaving the Maker

  • AddedDraw a layout with AI is now inside the Maker: describe it, and the see-through layout is added to your canvas under your other layers.
  • AddedThe Gallery has a Draw one with AI link, and a search that finds nothing offers to have those words drawn. Layout pages offer a new layout in your own theme; it uses only your words, never the creator's artwork.

Version 1.1.18

A drawing card that always answers

  • FixedDraw mine no longer looks dead when nothing was described. The drawing card has its own box for your words, shows what is missing right under the button, and starts working the moment you press.
  • ImprovedGenerator layouts no longer come with a “rant time” caption or a title plate: they are clean frames. Type a title under More options if you want one.
  • AddedThe Trial pack, 20 drawn layouts for US$2.99, can be picked right in the generator.
  • FixedOn wide screens the Maker's Add editable text cards no longer run past the side panel, so their Add buttons are fully visible again.

Version 1.1.17

Generator layouts are see-through from the start

  • ImprovedLayouts from the generator now come see-through by default, ready to drop over a video. Choose Paper under More options if you want a filled page.
  • ImprovedLayouts drawn with AI arrive as see-through PNGs too: the borders and decorations stay, the middle is clear.

Version 1.1.16

Keep drawing layouts with AI credits

  • AddedWhen your included drawn layouts are used, each extra one is 3 AI credits. The Trial pack covers 20, and a drawing that fails costs nothing.
  • ImprovedThe pricing page now shows what a drawn layout costs next to the other AI tools.

Version 1.1.15

Try an AI-drawn layout without an account

  • AddedDescribe a layout on the home page or in the generator and have it drawn with AI. One a day is free with no account; a free account adds 3 more.
  • FixedA drawn layout is no longer lost if you reload or leave while it is being made. The page picks it up again, and it is waiting for you when you come back.
  • ImprovedDrawing shows its progress, and choosing Creator after your free drawings now opens right where you are.

Version 1.1.14

A generator that builds a layout to match your sprite

  • AddedRant layout generator: type an idea, pick a colour or add your sprite and get four matching layouts. Each one opens in the Maker with every piece still editable.
  • AddedAny colour you like: the ribbon and Y2K packs can now be turned pink, purple, green or any other colour in the generator.
  • ImprovedOverlays saved on a black or white background turn see-through as soon as you upload them. Edit › Clean also has one-tap Remove black and Remove white buttons.
  • AddedCustom layouts in the generator: describe any theme and have a new layout drawn around it in about 20 seconds. Free accounts get 3; Creator includes 30 a month. These are made with AI.
  • AddedSign your layouts: type your name once in the generator or the Maker's Text tools and it is added as a watermark. It is remembered in your browser, and on every device when you are signed in.
  • FixedSmall outlined text in the Maker no longer turns into a blob on phone-sized canvases; it now looks the same as the exported PNG.

Version 1.1.13

A roomier Maker on every screen, working email confirmation, and AI credits

  • FixedEmail sign-up works again. The link in the confirmation email now confirms your address and signs you in. If you signed up earlier and could not finish, we are sending you a new link.
  • ImprovedThe Maker gives your canvas much more room on phones and tablets. On tablets the steps sit in the top bar and tips share a row with the layer actions; on phones open tools take less space.
  • ImprovedHolding a phone sideways now shows the canvas and the open tool side by side, instead of the tool covering the canvas.
  • ImprovedThe Sprite step has a larger picture area on every screen size and opens full screen on phones and in landscape. On desktop you can drop an image straight onto the upload area.
  • ImprovedAdding decorations on a phone shows the first row right away, with search, collection, and upload on one line.
  • AddedAI credits are available: a Creator plan billed monthly or yearly, a 7-day trial, and credit packs that do not expire. The Pricing page shows what the main AI actions cost. Editing and exporting in your browser stay free.
  • ImprovedWhen AI cutout cannot read a small selection, the Maker explains what to try next, and those attempts no longer use up your free daily tries.

Version 1.1.12

Character is now Sprite

  • ImprovedWe now use Sprite for the cut-out image you add to a rant layout, matching the community's terminology. Find the same tools under Sprite in the Maker on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
  • ImprovedAI Lab, AI Sprite Remix, cutout instructions, and Maker guides now use the same wording, making it easier to follow each step.
  • ImprovedExisting designs still open as before. Default character layer labels display as Sprite, while your custom layer names and saved work stay intact.

Version 1.1.11

Your own reusable asset library and a smoother mobile Maker

  • AddedSave images to My uploads in your account and reuse them from Assets or the Maker. Search your library, rename images, download originals, and delete anything you no longer need.
  • ImprovedSaved designs can reopen images from your personal library. Missing images are clearly marked for replacement, and deleting an original does not remove the separate image copies in layouts you have already shared.
  • AddedSign up and sign in with an email address and password, verify your email, and reset a forgotten password. Google and Discord sign-in remain available.
  • ImprovedThe mobile Maker now puts the canvas at the center, with quick access to Templates, Assets, Text, Character, and Layers. A short guide and clearer export options help you get started and finish your design.
  • FixedAdding decorations on mobile keeps the asset picker open and preserves your place in the list. Accidental taps outside the canvas no longer dismiss the picker.
  • ImprovedCharacter editing has more reliable model loading, clearer mobile controls, and brush tools for refining a cutout. Detailed selection is available for trickier images; complex edges may still need a manual touch-up.
  • ImprovedImage uploads use simpler progress messages and no longer require the extra upload-verification step. File checks and upload limits still apply.
  • FixedThe desktop footer stays centered and aligned with the page content.

Version 1.1.10

More creative starting points and a smoother mobile experience

  • ImprovedA refreshed homepage brings softer colors, rounded headings, magical details, and a more compact mobile layout. Shared navigation is clearer across the site.
  • AddedExplore 169 new assets across eight new themed collections, bringing the library to 209 assets in 10 collections.
  • AddedStart with six new editable designs: Moonlit Magic, Fairy Garden, Honey Picnic, Pixel Bedroom, Midnight Lace, and Autumn Journal. Blue Dream and Red Apple have also been refreshed, with all eight decorated starters assembled from existing assets.
  • ImprovedBrowse Assets in two columns on mobile, filter by collection and asset type, open full-image previews, and bring selected decorations directly into the Maker.
  • AddedDiscover popular layouts with Most Liked, see view counts alongside likes, and check creation times in New. Clearer ranking descriptions explain the difference between For You, Trending, New, and Most Remixed.
  • ImprovedGallery browsing is simpler: style filters are temporarily hidden while categories are being refined, and Collections now focuses on My Likes.
  • ImprovedGallery layouts now appear in two columns on mobile, with compact cards and accessible Like and Remix actions.
  • FixedMobile Maker panels now have working, separate Close and Add controls. Moving from a starter into Decorate keeps the canvas centered without automatically opening Edit, and feedback controls stay clear of the editing tools.
  • ImprovedBlog pages use smaller text, tighter spacing, and clearer section layouts on mobile for more comfortable reading.

Version 1.1.9

A clearer path from profile to public creator

  • ImprovedAccount now shows a three-step Creator launch checklist for saving a profile, connecting a layout, and publishing the first public work, with the next action always visible.
  • FixedLayouts saved before a Creator Profile was created can now be safely reconnected to that profile, and administrators can diagnose or repair eligible ownership links without exposing account identifiers.
  • AddedAccount Privacy now supports confirmed permanent account deletion. Public layouts remain usable as Anonymous creator while profile identity, sign-in access, account ownership, and hosted avatars are removed.

Version 1.1.8

Reliable previews for Gallery moderation

  • FixedGallery Management now uses time-limited, layout-scoped preview access and automatically falls back across the available compact public images, preventing healthy submissions from appearing unavailable when an admin session is not forwarded to an image request.
  • ImprovedPreview retries now restart the complete source chain, while Full preview opens the best available image without exposing withdrawn layouts publicly.

Version 1.1.7

Faster, more complete Gallery moderation

  • ImprovedGallery Management now opens on All submitted records so Public, Withdrawn, and Legacy items are visible without changing filters first.
  • FixedModeration cards now load compact previews through a lightweight authenticated Worker stream, prioritize the first visible row, and show a retry state instead of remaining stuck on Loading preview.

Version 1.1.6

A softer, cuter homepage

  • ImprovedThe homepage now uses a pale lavender-and-blush paper backdrop instead of a flat white canvas, while layout and asset previews keep clean white surfaces for accurate colors.
  • ImprovedRounded Fraunces headings and friendly Nunito interface text give Home a more playful RantLayout personality across desktop and mobile.

Version 1.1.5

Community and assets now keep moving

  • CommunityCommunity Mix now blends featured, trending, and new public Community layouts, removes duplicates, and can show up to 20 creations instead of only the newest page.
  • ImprovedBoth homepage artwork rails move continuously at a lively default speed, slow down when hovered or keyboard-focused, respect touch devices and reduced-motion preferences, and hide the native scrollbar track for a cleaner presentation.
  • ImprovedThe homepage asset rail now focuses on 20 Blue Dream Ribbon and Red Apple Gingham assets and no longer displays the legacy Pink Cute set.

Version 1.1.4

A more visual home for making and remixing

  • ImprovedThe homepage now leads with the Maker, real layout artwork, original asset packs, a compact creation walkthrough, and image-led style shortcuts.
  • CommunityLatest Community automatically brings the newest public Community layouts to the homepage with creator credit, Save, Remix, and a direct path to the full Gallery.
  • ImprovedDesktop layouts move gently with pause and arrow controls, while mobile uses touch-friendly manual swiping and respects reduced-motion preferences.

Version 1.1.3

Text tools that look and feel editable

  • ImprovedDecorate now keeps Add editable text open by default and gives channel names, watermarks, and titles clearer Add actions.
  • AddedSelected text layers now open a prominent live text editor with eight font styles and four font weights before the usual position and appearance controls.
  • FixedText controls now use text-specific labels and hide the image-style Density setting while keeping preview, save, remix, and PNG export behavior consistent.

Version 1.1.2

Faster, clearer Gallery moderation

  • ImprovedGallery Management now starts with public submissions and offers compact image-first cards, status and category filters, search, and current-page selection.
  • AddedModerators can withdraw or restore several layouts at once with a shared reason, confirmation, visible progress, and safe retry for individual failures.
  • FixedWithdrawn layout previews remain available inside the protected moderation console while continuing to stay inaccessible from public Gallery pages and asset URLs.

Version 1.1.1

Faster Gallery publishing with post-publication moderation

  • CommunityLayouts now become public immediately after the creator confirms they have permission to share every included image and element.
  • ImprovedGallery moderation now focuses on withdrawing noncompliant public content and restoring it when appropriate instead of making every creator wait for pre-approval.
  • ImprovedAutomatically published work is always marked Community; Official labels, monthly Featured slots, and verified creator bindings remain controlled by RantLayout staff.

Version 1.1.0

Account feedback and a calmer creative workspace

  • CommunityGoogle sign-in and the private Account workspace are now available to the controlled production test group, while the remaining community tools continue to open gradually.
  • AddedAccount brings creator profile setup, your layouts, notifications, contact requests, and blocked accounts into one consistent workspace.
  • AddedA small Feedback bubble now lets signed-in creators send private bug reports, ideas, and asset requests, then follow their status and staff replies from Account.
  • ImprovedAccount sections now switch with a persistent navigation shell, early page loading, and lightweight progress feedback instead of rebuilding the whole workspace.
  • ImprovedThe Account overview now focuses on one clear creator-profile task, compact layout and remix stats, three quick actions, and an original cat-and-notebook illustration.
  • ImprovedCharacter Cutout images can now be viewed from 50% to 300% with Fit, minus, plus, and touch-friendly zoom controls while keeping the exported character at its original quality.
  • FixedSigned-out visitors now go directly to Sign in from Account links instead of briefly seeing an incomplete page shell.

A complete, safer community Gallery

  • ImprovedStable D1-backed pagination keeps approved layouts in a predictable order and preserves direct page links.

  • CommunityNew Gallery layouts and Feedback topics now stay pending and noindex until an admin approves them.
  • ImprovedSaved layouts receive creator-only edit tokens, admin access uses an HttpOnly session cookie, and Feedback submissions use rate limiting plus Turnstile verification.

  • AddedAdded an R2 backfill workflow for converting existing community layout previews to the new WebP sizes.

Version 0.8.3
