About this tool
A simple editor with a layer workflow
What are layers for?
Layers keep every element separate. You can move text without disturbing the photo underneath, or hide one element to see the composition without it. This approach is cleaner than flattening everything into a single element.
Start with the canvas and hierarchy
Set the canvas size for the intended use, such as square for a feed or vertical for a Story. Place the main photo on the bottom layer, then add text and accents above it. Keep important elements from covering one another.
Save in a suitable format
PNG is useful when the canvas needs transparency, while JPG is lighter for full photos. The download is a flat image, so keep the supporting files if you want to edit the composition again later.
Quick guide
How it works Layer Photo Editor
-
Prepare the canvas and main photo
Choose a canvas size, then open the photo that will serve as the base. Position it so the subject sits in an area that text will not cover.
-
Add text and other layers
Add text or images as new layers. Adjust order, size, color, and position one at a time.
-
Review and download
Check the layer stack from bottom to top and move any elements that overlap. When you are happy with it, download the result.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can layers be edited after saving?
The download is a flat image, so the layers are no longer separate. Save a project file if the tool offers one, or note the key settings so the design is easy to recreate.
Which format is used for the final result?
The format follows the base photo: a PNG source exports as PNG, while a JPG source becomes JPG. To preserve transparent areas, start with a PNG photo.
Can I use my own photos and logos?
Yes. Use a photo from your device as the base, then add a transparent PNG logo as a separate layer so it is easy to reposition.
Is my work uploaded?
No. The canvas and layers are processed in the browser. However, since the work is not saved to a server automatically, download the result before closing the tab or reloading the page.
