## Overview

Easily shift the colors of your photos and graphics with our Image Hue Adjustment tool. By rotating the hue spectrum, you can instantly transform the color palette of any image, create artistic filters, or correct color imbalances without complex editing software.

## Inputs

- **Image File** (file): Upload any image file (JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, TIFF) to adjust hue
- **Hue Shift** (range): Hue shift in degrees (-180 to 180). 0 = original, positive shifts colors clockwise
- **Output Format** (select): Choose output format or keep original. PNG recommended for maximum quality
- **Quality (1-100)** (number): Output quality for lossy formats (JPEG, WebP). Higher = better quality but larger file size

## When to use

- When you need to quickly change the color scheme of a graphic or logo to match a new brand identity.
- When you want to create stylized, artistic photo effects by shifting the entire color spectrum.
- When you need to batch-process images to ensure consistent color tones across a series of assets.

## How it works

- Upload your image file (JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, or TIFF).
- Use the Hue Shift slider to rotate the color spectrum between -180 and 180 degrees.
- Select your preferred output format and quality settings.
- Download your color-adjusted image instantly.

## Use cases

- Creating consistent color-coded icons for web design projects.
- Applying creative color tints to black and white or neutral-toned photography.
- Rapidly prototyping different color variations for product marketing assets.
