Here's Brett Rutecky's take:

However beyond that Drop Mock is also really great for branding. You can take your logo and make some really cool, professional quality graphics that you can then use for ads like Facebook ads or for social media posts like Instagram or Pinterest. This is the thing  I was most interested in actually. Making nice branded graphics to post to my social media accounts, use as ads, or even as cover images for my videos and video ads.

Here are a few images I made with Drop Mock, in total these images took me about 2 minutes to make (DropMock is super fast)

Creating a branded mock up with Drop Mock is super easy. Simply log into your account you will see a screen that looks like this:

The number of templates you see will depend in the version of the software you have. If you have the FE (front end) version you will have around 30 templates to choose from. If you have the upgraded pro version you will have an additional 100+ templates.

Simply select a template, and then click the place holder image in the preview to upload your own graphic.

Wait a few seconds and then crop or clip your image as needed.

The image cropping tool worked well. It allowed you to move or resize the area to crop and it even allowed you to zoom out (or in) your image with the mouse wheel. This is great for if you don't actually want to crop your image and instead want to shrink it so that the entire image fits into the cop area.

The one thing I did notice that was kind of strange about the DopMock crop functionality though is that it has one button “CROP & SAVE” but in my tests you actually have to press it twice. Once to crop, and once to save. This is not the expected behavior given that there is one button and it has both functionalities as the buttons text. I would have expected to press the button once and it perform both functions, not require a double press. I pointed this out to Lee. I'm not sure if he disagreed with my opinion on this or if it's just something that they have not gotten around to updating yet, but either way at the time of writing this article this is still how the system works. You must press the “CROP & SAVE” button twice.

Once you do that the software will then automatically add your image into the template, taking into account the template itself, adjusting / skewing and even texturing the image to make it look like it was actually a part of the photograph and not just an image added over it.

From this point you have different options depending on if you have the front end version of the upgraded pro version.

If you have the front end version your final option will be to download a standard resolution image. This is a VGA image. The resolution depends on the actual image but are normally between 640×480 and 800X600px. If you have the upgraded pro version you can also download a very high definition version of your image, a few thousand pixels by a few thousand pixels normally.

I'll be totally honest. The definition you need is going to depend on what you intend to use the image for. For most online applications such as posting to social media, using as a ad, or even as a cover / preview for a video the standard resolution is going to be fine. However if your doing a presentation or any kind of offline / print media your going to want a high def image.

So what did I think of Drop Mock over all? Well I really like the concept. I like that it allows you to mock up previews in different scenes. This is going to be great for presentations or proposals. However beyond that I personally am really interested in using this to make cool branded images for posting to social networks, for ads, and for video covers. These are just some of the cool things you can use these images for.

While there where a few things that I thought could be improved, such as the “CROP & SAVE” button or the fact that there is no user image library and you have to upload your image for each template every time you make a new image, over all I found DropMock to be super easy to use, very fast, and intuitive. With it anyone is going to be able to make professional quality, branded, photo realistic images super fast, super easy, and without needing to be some kind of PhotoShop wizard. In my opinion this one is a definite winner, and its one I can guarantee you that I will be using myself.
