Announcing CGI.Backgrounds' Updated User Interface; Find Your Perfect HDRi Map or Backplate

In the world of 3D rendering, visuals play a pivotal role in conveying messages, evoking emotions, and capturing the essence of stories.
For users seeking that perfect HDRi Map or Backplate to complement their projects, the user experience on a stock media website is of paramount importance.
This is why we're excited to introduce a fresh and intuitive User Interface (UI) update that promises to revolutionize the way you search, license, and purchase images from CGI.Backgrounds industry-leading collection.

Bigger and Better Images

At the heart of this update lies the commitment to present you with larger, high-quality preview images.
We understand that the finer details in an HDRi Map or Backplate matter, and the ability to see smaller details in an image is crucial, especially when you're making a purchasing decision.
With our new layout, images are now presented in larger dimensions, allowing you to dive deep into the visual narrative, discover hidden nuances, and make more informed decisions.

A More Intuitive Licensing and Buying Process

Navigating the intricacies of image licensing and purchasing can be a daunting task. To streamline this process and make it as effortless as possible, we've introduced a revamped licensing and buying system that focuses on user-friendliness.

1. Simplified Licensing Options

We recognize that not all users have the same licensing needs. Whether you're a creative professional requiring a single image for a specific project, or a business looking to subscribe for regular access, we've got you covered. Our new interface clearly presents the two primary options:
Rights Managed: Ideal for users who need specific images for individual projects. This licensing model allows you to select and license images on a per-image basis.
Subscription Options: Perfect for those who require frequent access to a wide variety of images, such as brands, freelancers or agencies. Subscriptions grant you flexibility and value, allowing you to download multiple images over a defined period. See our subscription options here.

2. Streamlined Checkout Process

Our commitment to simplifying the process doesn't stop at licensing options. Our checkout process has been refined for swift and hassle-free transactions. The steps are clear and concise, ensuring that you can obtain the licenses you need quickly and efficiently.

3. Licensing Flexibility

We understand that different projects may require variations in licensing terms. Our new UI enables you to explore licensing options tailored to your specific needs. You can now customize your licenses, whether it's for extended usage rights, print or web usage, or any other requirements.

Mobile Responsiveness

In today's fast-paced world, we recognize that professionals often need access to images on the go. Our website is now fully mobile-responsive, guaranteeing that you can browse, select, and license images from your smartphone or tablet just as seamlessly as on a desktop.

Feedback-Driven Evolution

The improvements we've introduced are a result of invaluable feedback from our community of users. We've listened to your suggestions, and this UI update reflects our commitment to providing the best possible experience.
