PLEASE Affinity shareholders buy Photopea?

[Affinmac]

Hello Affinity, I really need to be able to use mockups to showcase my work to clients so they can see what their brands etc are going to look like when implemented in the real world scenarios through a PSD Mock-up.  it's becoming very frustrating and off-putting ( as in the use of Affinity Products) that I cannot use a PSD Smart Object. I've seen numerous tutorials, using all sorts of weird and wacky workarounds to try to and get a smart object to work in Affinity Products ( a lot of which are very time consuming, and time is an important factor to a designer, especially with scheduled projects).

As a designer, I just want to be able to open a PSD Smart Object, place in my logo, press CTRL and Save ( JOB DONE). Here a suggestion, what about Affinity buy out Photopea and built its technology into both "Photo" and "Designer" as a smart object persona tool? I'm sure I speak for a lot of designers that have made the switch from Adobe to Affinity

I like it, when person A proposes person B, how he should spend his money in order to satisfy person A.

What if anything makes you think Photopea's technology would be compatible with the Affinity code base?

I've never made an electronic mockup. I've done physical ones, though. Something the client can touch and pass around their meetings. 

Not saying a smart object type of technology isn't a good request. It is. But Serif can roll their own if they so choose.

Well the way I look at it, MikeW your right, to a point, I've done that myself in the past, printed off actual mock-up posters etc that the client can get their hands around but more often than that, I've been to meetings where a lot of my clients have requested digital presentions beforehand, rather than physical presentation.

Hi Affinmac. I think you'll have a nice surprise coming very soon - and we didn't need to acquire anybody else to do it either

So we can expect Photoshop Smart Objects to work in Affinity Photo soon?
