August 2021: While the steps for creating a brand kit remain the same, note that pop-up palettes have moved to the side tabs and side panel.
A brand kit is like a portfolio of all your regularly-used fonts, logos, colors, graphics, and other assets. Once you add all your favorite design elements to your brand kit they will "follow you" around in PicMonkey, appearing at the top of palettes and panels. That means you'll never have to search for your often-used graphics or colors ever again.
This feature is available to Pro subscribers only. Learn more about Basic vs. Pro subscriptions.

Create your brand kit in PicMonkey:
1. From the PicMonkey homepage, click Brand Kit at the top of the left panel.
2. Click the "+" signs to add your favorite elements to each section.
Now when you design in PicMonkey, your brand's design elements will appear front and center. You'll also be able to find them elsewhere. Like the color picker and fonts list, for instance.

How do I remove an asset from my Brand Kit?
