We’ve recently posted beta release 33 of SlideRocket which improves asset management, printing capabilities, and keywords. It also fixes issues with build animations assigned to bulleted text.

Thank you to everyone who has been submitting bug reports, we’re listening and fixing things as quickly as we can. We didn’t publicize the release of version 32 but that included some great new shape drawing tools as well as resolutions for a number of issues.

I’ve included the full list of additions and fixes for both versions below, and you can always find this info within SlideRocket by clicking the “Feedback” button after you log in and looking in the Release Notes.
