Image editor tools

Image editor tools are tools that you can use to edit photos.

You start by uploading an image and then you make adjustments to it, apply filters, add effects, change colors and so on.

In the past, you would need to download and install heavy and expensive software, and learn how to use them. But now, with Image Online Tools, you can access an increasing set of image manipulation tools online for free.

Crop image

Crop images online by defining a rectangle in pixels.

Trim transparent pixels

Remove transparent space around images. Trim away transparent borders around an image.

Change image color

Change color of images by changing the red, green and blue components of each pixel of the image.

Change image hue

Adjust the hue of images. Hue rotate images by specifying an angle around the color circle.

RGB Split Effect

Separate the red, green and blue color channels of images to create glitch-like effects.

CRT Monitor Effect

Recreate the look of classic CRT displays and old TVs on your photos.

Grayscale image online

Convert images to grayscale.

Sepia image online

Convert images to sepia.

Blur image online

Apply Gaussian blur filter to images.

RGB Formula Editor

Edit images using math equations. Transform images by applying custom RGB formulas to each pixel.

Rotate image

Rotate an image, clockwise or counterclockwise.

Flip image

Flip an image horizontally or vertically.

Resize image

Resize images by percentage or by pixels.

Generate Turing Pattern from Image

Blur and Sharpen an image multiple times to generate a Turing Pattern.

Convolution Matrix

Apply Convolution Matrix to images to create effects such as blurring, sharpening, embossing, edge detection, and more.

What are image filters?

Image filters change the appearance of images by changing the colors of its pixels, following certain rules.

The online tools allows you to apply commom filters to images (for example, sepia, blur or grayscale) or experiment with unusual filters and effects.

How image filters work?

To understand how image filters works, first you need to understand how images are represented.

Each image is composed of pixels and each pixel has a color.

A color can be represented in different ways. One of the most common ways to represent a color in the web is the RGB color model, in wich the color is represented by 3 components: red, green and blue. Each component (red, green or blue) is represented by a number between 0 and 255.

So, basically, any image is represented by a set of numbers in the range between 0 and 255.

Image filters works by making changes to these numbers, following some math functions or custom rules depending on the filter. For example, if you increase the values of each pixel (red, green and blue) you will make the image lighter. If you decrease the values, you will make the image darker.

In this website you will find a set of image filters, together with explanations of how they work and how to use the online tool.

Convolution matrix

Image filters use different algorithms and math functions. For some filters, to determine the result color of each pixel, you need to check the colors from the neighbour pixels in the input image. Each pixel in the output image is a function of the nearby pixels in the input image, including itself.

In this case, we frequently use a convolution matrix. Convolution matrix is a matrix that can be used to transform an image. Convolution is the process of adding each element of the image to its local neighbors, weighted by the kernel.

The convolution matrix can have different sizes. If you want to check only the 8 neighbour pixels, you can use a 3x3 matrix. But you can also use a bigger matrix, like 5x5 or 7x7 if you want to use more neighbour pixels.
