Latest updates:
Added content-wide search
Published September 14Content-wide search has been on my roadmap for a while, but until my recent work building up the new SVG collections, hasn't been as necessary.
New: 10 backgrounds with animation
Published September 1One of the most common requests I've been fielding from customers is to get more animated backgrounds, so I doubled the collection size.
New: 132 Geometric Doodles
Published August 15After starting off the doodle series with single purpose sets (underlines, circles, and arrows), I decided to create a wider range of decorative doodles.
New: 24 Animated loading graphics
Published August 1I designed 24 SVG preloaders. You'll be able to adjust the color, speed, and size of the preloaders. Link provided so you can view the collection.
New: 200 plump icons released
Published July 18This is version 1 of the first set of icons I ever designed. The icons are all designed on a 24x24 grid and are all a single solid color.
New: 45 Circle doodles
Published July 5The latest release of my doodle series features ovals that you can use to circle keywords or other elements. The doodle style is hand-drawn.
10 new backgrounds: blobs, depth, and gradients
Published June 27I've been rounding out the background collections, so they all contain closer to 20 backgrounds. That's why I created for various collections this time.
New: 64 Arrow doodles
Published June 15I continued designing more SVG doodle graphics, this time focusing on hand-drawn arrows. One of the new features I've added is that these arrows can be rotated.
New: 48 Underline doodles
Published June 1I designed and added a new collection to the SVG elements section of the site. Pro members get access to all 48 SVG underlines.
New SVG Elements: List Item Bullets
Published May 15I created and published a new set of icons, specifically meant for list items, you know those unordered lists that usually have blocks dots, aka HTML bullets.
Added search to help you find backgrounds
Published May 1I added the ability to search backgrounds. You can find the search page under Backgrounds > Search Backgrounds or by visiting svgbackgrounds.com/search
Introduction of SVG Elements
Published April 19The site has major developments, I added a new section that allows SVG Backgrounds to offer more than backgrounds. The site will now offer various types of SVGs
Improved the SVG to CSS converter
Published January 17When I launched in 2018, supporting older browsers meant we had to URL encode most of the special characters, but now there is a more modern approach.
10 new geometric patterns added
Published October 20The latest update include 10 new repeating patterns with a mic of hexagonal, earthy, and stipe designs.
Save your own colors with this new feature
Published September 20You can now save up to 10 brand colors, which are available for quick selection in the background editor.
5 new mesh gradient backgrounds added
Published August 12Mesh gradients have become quite popular, but SVG is limited to linear and radial gradients. I came up with some techniques to recreate SVG mesh gradients.
10 new animated backgrounds added
Published June 8Based on a user request, I designed a small set of 10 animated backgrounds.
Performance improvement: faster loading content
Published June 1After reports that the page that hosts the entire background collection was loading slowly, improvements were made to help the page and content load faster.
New export option: PNG
Published May 16You now can export backgrounds as a PNG, which is great for software that doesn't fully or partially support SVG files or code.
