It&#8217;s a little like being stranded out on the ocean.

You can see them in each library category. Speaking of the library, we separated the characters from the props to make it super easy to find friendly faces for your Powtoon.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8596\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8596\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"style-svg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.powtoon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/5-visual-styles-props-sep-characters-img-3-.png\" alt=\"5 visual styles\" width=\"650\" height=\"352\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8596\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We&#8217;ve separated the characters from the props.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<p>Bottom line: You still have all the styles you?re used to (with new ones released all the time), we&#8217;re just organizing them a little bit differently for 4 very important reasons:<\/p>\n<h3>Number 1: Your Powtoons are going to look amazing!!!!<\/h3>\n<p>You can be confident that any style family you choose in one of The 5 Looks&nbsp;will be consistent with the others. No more searching forever, or plunking down mismatched characters and props. The 5 Looks&nbsp;instantly improve your design consistency. That makes for a Powtoon with more wow factor and a more professional feel.<\/p>\n<h3>Number 2: A better experience for you<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of only seeing assets from one style family, you&#8217;ll now be able to easily see all the assets that fit your Look, right there in the editor.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8607\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8607\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"style-svg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.powtoon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/5visual-styles_630x420_1_icons.jpg\" alt=\"5 visual styles\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8607\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A better experience for you!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Number 3: Get working fast!<\/h3>\n<p>We made it easier for you to chose the overall look for your Powtoon first so you can quickly determine the tone of your video, and can get started fast. And, finally&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>Number 4: Massively reduce loading time<\/h3>\n<p>This change massively (and I mean massively) reduces loading time. Get editing, publishing and sharing faster than ever before.<\/p>\n<h2>So What Are You Waiting For?<\/h2>\n<p>Awesomeness awaits you \u2014&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.powtoon.com\/my-powtoons\/\">Go make a Powtoon<\/a>!
