Create a new design

Yes. It is a free, in-browser photo and image editor with no signup and no watermark. The instant tools — brightness/contrast/color adjustments, text, shapes and 100+ templates — run locally in your browser, while the 50+ artistic effects and the AI features (background removal and 2x / 4x upscaling) are processed on our secure servers over HTTPS and your upload is deleted automatically afterwards; we never store, share, or sell it.

It works as a general picture editor for any raster image — phone photos, screenshots, scanned pictures, product shots and graphics. Crop and resize, adjust brightness, contrast and colour, apply effects, remove the background, then add text, shapes or a new background behind your subject.

Live filters and adjustments, advanced photo effects, AI background removal and upscaling, plus text with fonts, gradients, shadows and outlines, shapes, 200+ icons and adaptive frames. Multi-select, align, group and layer your elements with full undo / redo, then export to PNG, JPG, PDF or SVG.

Yes. Drop a photo onto the canvas and it gets the full photo toolset (filters, effects and AI), while the same canvas gives you Canva-style design tools — text, shapes, icons, gradients, frames and 100+ templates. Editing and layout happen together on one page instead of switching between two separate apps.

These five sliders in the Adjust tab apply instant, non-destructive changes to the selected photo: Brightness lightens or darkens it, Contrast controls the gap between light and dark areas, Saturation makes colors more or less vivid, Hue rotates every color around the color wheel, and Blur softens detail. They update live on the canvas and can be reset or replaced anytime with a one-click preset like Vivid, Fade, Vintage or B&W.

Adjust applies instant, free client-side tweaks (brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, blur, plus toggles like grayscale, sepia, invert, solarize and emboss) that update in real time with no upload. The Effects tab instead runs 50+ artistic, more processing-heavy looks — cinematic grades, vintage film, watercolor and more — on our servers with its own intensity slider.

Select the photo on the canvas, open the AI tab, and pick Remove Background, Upscale 2x, Upscale 4x or Colorize. The image is sent to our AI servers, processed, and the result is swapped back into your design automatically, so you can keep building text, shapes and layout around it on the same canvas.

Open the Background tab: click one of the quick-swatch colors, pick a fully custom color, or switch to the gradient option to blend two colors behind your design. This changes the whole canvas backdrop, separate from any border or shape background color.

Select the photo, apply the Vintage preset in the Adjust panel (sepia tone, reduced contrast and light grain), then add a Poster or Retro look from the Effects tab for a printed-poster texture. Finish with a warm gradient Background and a bold layer from the Text tab, then export as PNG or PDF once it looks right.

Select a text box and the floating toolbar lets you change its font (10 families), size, bold/italic and left/center/right alignment. Click the sparkle icon for Text Effects to curve the text along an arc, add a drop shadow with its own colour, blur and X/Y offset, or add a coloured outline with an adjustable width — combine curve with a heavy outline for a badge or logo-style wordmark.

Select a shape or text object and click the Blend icon in the floating toolbar, or open the Background tab for the canvas itself, to open the gradient editor. Choose linear or radial, drag the angle slider, and add, remove or drag colour stops along the gradient bar — or pick one of the built-in two-colour presets for a quick brand-coloured fill.

The Start screen and the Size tab both offer ready-made presets — Instagram Post, Instagram Story, Facebook Post, Twitter/X Post, YouTube Thumbnail, Presentation 16:9, A4 Document, Logo, Poster and Business Card — or you can type a fully custom width and height from 16 to 8000px. Changing size later in the Size tab resizes the whole canvas without leaving the editor.

This style switcher in the Elements tab restyles any shape or single-colour icon before you add it: Outline gives a thin stroked line, Black fills it solid black, Flat fills it with a solid brand colour, Gradient adds a two-tone diagonal gradient fill, Lineal color combines a soft fill with a bold outline, and Hand drawn gives a looser sketched stroke. Switching styles updates every icon preview live so you can match a whole design's look before inserting anything.

Yes — the Templates tab and the icon Graphics section in Elements are gated behind a free sign-in, since these are curated, premium assets fetched from our servers rather than bundled into the page. Shapes, text, uploads, colours, gradients, adjustments, effects and AI tools all work without an account, and your in-progress canvas is auto-saved locally, so signing in mid-design brings you straight back to it.

Select two or more objects (shift-click or drag a marquee) to reveal a floating toolbar with six alignment buttons (left, center, right, top, middle, bottom), horizontal/vertical distribute for three or more objects to space them evenly, and group/ungroup so a whole set moves and resizes as one unit. You can also nudge any selection one pixel at a time with the arrow keys, or 10px at a time holding Shift.

Yes — every export (PNG, JPG, PDF or SVG) requires a free account. Clicking Download while signed out automatically saves your canvas, sends you to sign in, and brings you straight back to the same design afterwards, so nothing is lost. Everything else — shapes, text, photos, colours, gradients, adjustments, client-side filters and even the AI tools (remove background, upscale, colorize) — works fully signed out; only the final download step and the Templates/Graphics libraries require an account.

Select a multi-colour graphic from the premium icon library and the floating object toolbar shows one colour swatch per layer instead of a single fill colour, so you can recolor each part of the icon independently — for example an icon's outline and its inner shape separately. If you want the original colours back, click the reset (circular arrow) button next to the swatches to restore every layer to how it looked when inserted.

No — your canvas auto-saves to your browser roughly every second as you work, so a refresh, a login redirect, or closing the tab restores your in-progress design automatically when you return. If you also click the explicit Save button, the design is added to a named 'Your designs' list on the start screen that you can reopen anytime, and each saved design has its own delete (trash) icon if you want to remove it from that list.
