FAQ

What is this tool used for?

It creates blurred, dimmed versions of photos for use as hero section backgrounds, banner overlays, presentation slides, or anywhere you need a softened image background with text on top.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All processing is done locally in your browser using CSS filters and the Canvas API. Your image is never sent anywhere.

Why use the Scale slider?

Heavy blurring creates soft transparent edges around the image. Scaling the image up slightly hides those edges so the result looks clean and edge-free.

What resolution is the downloaded PNG?

The download is rendered at the original image's natural resolution using the Canvas API, so the output quality matches your source file.
