HOW TO

How to invert an image

Inverting swaps every colour for its opposite — black becomes white, and a negative becomes a positive. The other controls let you fix the result.

  1. 1

    Add your image

    Drag a file in or click to browse. JPG, PNG, WEBP and GIF all work.

  2. 2

    Choose an effect

    Pick invert, greyscale or sepia, then fine-tune with brightness, contrast, saturation and blur. Flip or rotate if the orientation needs fixing too.

  3. 3

    Download the result

    Save it as a PNG at the original pixel size. Your source file is never modified.

USE CASES

What people use this for

Inverting is more useful than it first sounds.

Film negatives

Turn a photographed negative back into a viewable positive image.

Dark-mode screenshots

Flip a dark interface capture to light so it prints without flooding the page with ink.

Faint pencil scans

Invert a light sketch to make the lines stand out clearly.

Design checks

See how artwork reads in reverse before committing to a colour scheme.

Greyscale conversion

Strip colour out of an image for a print job or a monochrome layout.

Quick corrections

Lift a dark photo or add contrast to a flat one without opening an editor.

TIPS

Working with the controls

The adjustments stack, so order and restraint both matter.

  • Effects apply on top of your adjustments, so invert plus brightness gives a different result to brightness alone.
  • Small contrast changes go a long way. Pushing it to the extremes crushes detail in the shadows and highlights.
  • Use greyscale rather than dropping saturation to zero if you want a true black and white — the maths behind it is different.
  • Rotating in quarter turns keeps the image sharp, because nothing has to be resampled.
  • Reset puts every control back to default if the adjustments get away from you.
  • The download is a PNG at full resolution, so nothing is compressed on the way out.
