Examples

1. Vibrant Landscape Enhancement

Travel Blogger

Background

A collection of landscape photos taken on a cloudy day appeared dull and lacked the natural beauty of the scenery.

Problem

The images needed more color depth to look professional and engaging for social media.

How to use

Upload the JPEG files and set the saturation level to 40 to bring out the greens and blues.

saturation: 40, format: 'jpeg', quality: 95

Outcome

The photos look significantly more vivid and eye-catching while maintaining natural detail.

2. Minimalist Grayscale Conversion

Graphic Designer

Background

A project required a set of uniform, desaturated images to match a monochromatic website theme.

Problem

Manually editing each image in professional software was too time-consuming.

How to use

Upload the images and set the saturation to -100 to achieve a clean grayscale effect.

saturation: -100, format: 'png', quality: 100

Outcome

FAQ

What is the range for the saturation slider?

The slider ranges from -100 to 100. -100 removes all color (grayscale), 0 keeps the original saturation, and 100 maximizes color intensity.

Which file formats are supported?

You can upload JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and TIFF files.

Can I change the file format during adjustment?

Yes, you can choose to keep the original format or convert your image to JPEG, PNG, or WebP.

Does adjusting saturation affect image quality?

The adjustment itself is a color transformation. You can control the final output quality using the quality setting (1-100) for lossy formats like JPEG and WebP.

Is there a file size limit?

Yes, the maximum file size for uploads is 10 MB.
