Great content. Making hyperlinks is fun. I offer this option to my clients.

Great stuff. We have been making jpgs with URLs and QR codes on them, then sending them to our market. If you hold your finger on the URL or QR code on the image it will open the link in the browser. Pretty neat stuff.

That is a great feature.

The hyperlinks addition is very cool! I was considering sharing the YouTube video, but the old Facebook logo was used, so this new feature appears outdated (to me, at least... but I'm picky 😆)
