Follow these simple steps to edit your images like a pro
Click the "Choose Image" button to select an image from your device. The tool supports all common image formats including JPG, PNG, GIF, and WebP. Your image will be displayed on the canvas immediately after upload.
Choose your desired effect from the three available options: Pixelate for a mosaic effect, Blur for a smooth blur, or Strong Blur for an intense blur effect. Each effect can be adjusted for intensity later.
Pick a selection tool based on your needs. Use Rectangle for straight-edged areas, Brush for freehand painting, or Ellipse for circular regions. The Brush tool offers additional size control for precise editing.
Use the intensity slider to control how strong the effect will be. Lower values (2-10) create subtle effects, while higher values (30-50) create dramatic transformations. For the Brush tool, also adjust the brush size as needed.
Click and drag on your image to select the area you want to edit. For Rectangle and Ellipse tools, draw a selection box. For the Brush tool, paint directly over the areas. The effect is applied in real-time as you draw.
Once satisfied with your edits, click "Download" to save your image. You can also use "Undo" to step back through changes, "Reset" to start over with the original image, or continue editing other areas with different effects.
For faces and text: Use higher intensity (20-40) with the Rectangle or Ellipse tool for complete privacy protection.
For detailed areas: Use the Brush tool with a smaller size (10-20px) to precisely target specific regions without affecting surrounding areas.
For artistic effects: Try combining multiple effects - pixelate some areas and blur others to create unique visual styles.
For large areas: Use the Rectangle tool with lower intensity first, then use the Brush tool to touch up edges and details.
Save your work often: Use the Download button periodically to save progress. You can always reload and continue editing.
Experiment freely: Don't worry about mistakes - use the Undo button to step back through up to 20 previous actions.
