Online Designer

Make changes to your website's text and images, even at the same time as others, on any device and from anywhere in the world.

Create Mobile Websites

Create websites that are optimized for various display sizes. Just make a standard design that can then be used to define other versions for smaller or larger displays. This way, you can make websites that fit smartphones, tablets, and extra-large desktop monitors. All contents are automatically synced. The positioning and design of individual objects can be separately defined for each type of display. For displays with a higher pixel density, such as smartphones, high resolution versions of your images are automatically delivered.

Fixed Elements

Easily prevent individual objects from moving when users scroll on your website. For example, you can fix the navigation bar so that it's always visible to visitors.

Image Editing

Image Optimization

Make the most out of your photos by adjusting brightness, contrast, colors, and saturation instantly. Each aspect can be controlled with its own slider or use the 1-click optimization tool.

Advanced Image Optimization

By changing the way the values are distributed, you can customize the brightness and contrast or create special effects. You can also achieve a professional white balance by defining white, gray, and black points in your images.

Restore Lights & Shadows

Difficult lighting conditions with high contrast between light and dark often give rise to dead areas in images. You can edit such overexposed and underexposed spots. This allows you to pull more detail out of extreme areas and increase the dynamic range of your photos.

Blend Modes for Color Dodge & Color Burn

Enhance individual color ranges in your images. With the tool for color dodge and color burn, you can darken or lighten precise sections.

Special Blend Modes

Intelligent Scaling & Zoom

Change the proportions of your photos (intelligent scaling) or change individual elements in an image (intelligent zoom) without distorting other important elements.

Photo Retouching

Crop Image Elements

You can select and extract image areas with the help of colors (color select tool) by drawing selection lines or selection areas around certain sections. In just a few steps, you can take image elements out of context and reposition them.

Morphing Effect

Using the "liquid color" filter, you can change the shape of people's bodies. You can make people look thinner or more muscular. Or you can even use this filter to make caricatures or apply artistic effects.

Perspective Correction & Horizon Straightening

"Converging lines" often occur when taking photos of buildings using a wide-angle lens. Converging lines are in fact parallel lines that meet at a single point in the distance. Correct them with just one click.

Magnetic Lasso

Clipping sections in an image is now quicker than ever before. Draw an outline using the mouse and the intelligent selection tool will automatically create a path.

Use the huge selection of creative effects to transform your photos into works of art. Simply drag the filter you want to use onto your image. Or select a specific section of the image for targeted editing to give it a unique look.

Non-Destructive Editing

Your original photos remain unchanged, so you're free to let your imagination run wild. All changes can be undone at any time without affecting quality, even after rescaling images.

Graphic Design

Draw Vector Graphics

The powerful drawing tools allow you to draw lines, shapes, and curves exactly the way you want. Since images created in this way are made of vectors, they remain sharp to the tiniest detail and can be scaled without any loss to quality. The rendering engine is fast and is able to handle pages that feature complex graphics and drawings.

Special Effects with Direct Action Tools

Using the direct action tools, you can intuitively create effects like transparency, edges, or gradients. Simply select the necessary tool and apply it to the graphic. You can see direct results, which means there's no need for any extra dialogs.

Smart Shapes

For simplified graphic production, use smart shapes from the content catalog. These are intelligent shapes which can be easily edited with the help of special handles. You can easily adjust the position and alignment of a shape. If you change the text within a shape, the shape will automatically adjust to fit it.

3D Tool

Using the integrated 3D tool, you can create three-dimensional objects in real time from text, graphics, and forms - includes true-to-life light reflections and shadow.

Blend Tool

The blend tool lets you join two objects together. For example, you can simulate movement in images, create long shadows, or show one form developing into another.

Vectorize Photos

Transform photos and logos into vector graphics with just a click using the powerful bitmap tracer. Scan in pencil drawings and transform them into graphics.

Liquefying Vector Graphics

Customize your vectors by blowing them up, compressing, skewing, or blurring them.

Linked Colors
