A layered editor with nothing to install
Photo Editor keeps every element , photos, paint strokes, text, shapes and fills , as separate layers with their own opacity, blend mode and non-destructive adjustments (including Levels with a live histogram), composited live with your browser’s canvas engine. Select with marquee, lasso or magic wand (real marching ants), then paint, erase, clone-stamp, dodge & burn, flood-fill or pull gradients inside the selection. Transform with real handles, crop the whole document, jump around the History panel, then export a flattened PNG, JPG or WebP , or save the entire project as JSON and reopen it later with every layer intact. Completely free, completely private, works offline.
Everything a real editor should do.
- Edit in layers , images, paint, text, shapes and solid fills, each with its own blend mode, opacity, drag-to-reorder and non-destructive adjustments.
- Select precisely with a rectangle or ellipse marquee, a freehand lasso, or a magic wand with adjustable tolerance , complete with animated marching-ants outlines.
- Paint and retouch using a soft brush, eraser, clone stamp (Alt+click to set the source) and dodge / burn, all clipped to the active selection.
- Fill, gradient and flood with a tolerance-aware fill bucket and linear or radial gradients that respect your selection.
- Adjust and filter with brightness, contrast, saturation and more, plus Levels (with a live histogram), Sharpen, Noise, Pixelate and Vignette.
- Export or save a flattened PNG, JPG or WebP at up to 4× scale, copy straight to the clipboard, or save the whole layered project as JSON and reopen it later.
Four steps, no manual.
- Drop a photo onto the canvas or click Create canvas to start from a blank , your file never leaves your device.
- Pick a tool from the left rail, then tune its options in the Properties panel on the right.
- Add and blend layers for images, paint, text, shapes and fills , reorder them, change opacity and blend mode in the Layers panel.
- Click Export to download a flattened PNG, JPG or WebP, or Save project as JSON to keep every layer for later.
