One of the great strengths of Divi is that you don’t have to bother with creating a mock-up of your site, you can jump straight into Divi and start creating.

And the process has just got a whole lot more creative with the latest Divi feature update, which comes with a full range of visual adjustment tools including colour filters, effects and blend modes that can be applied to any image and all Divi modules, rows and sections.

To use these new features, a new options group and a collection of custom controls have been added to all Divi modules, rows and sections that make it easy to make colour adjustments, apply stylistic effects and blend elements together on the page.

Now you can create stunning depth-of-field effects that really bring your pages to life, without having to play around with Photoshop or compromise the integrity of your original image.
And as an added bonus, there is now no need to use super-big transparent PNG images that take forever to load.
