Add a border, inner padding, rounded corners and a soft shadow to a picture - the finishing touches that make a product shot, a social post or a print-ready photo look deliberate rather than raw. The preview updates live so you can judge the proportions before exporting.
Typical uses: e-commerce main images that need a consistent frame, avatars with a rounded edge, or photos you want to print with a white margin. The output is a PNG, so transparency is preserved and the border colour you choose is drawn exactly.

FAQ
Can I add a white margin around a photo?
Yes. Increase the padding value and the image is placed on a white or coloured background, which is what you want for printing or for a uniform shop grid.
Are the corners really transparent?
Yes, when you set a corner radius the area outside the rounded edge is transparent in the PNG, so it sits cleanly on any background.
Can I keep the original size?
The exported file grows by the border and padding you add; the picture inside keeps its original pixel dimensions.
Which colour formats are supported?
Any HEX colour for the border and the background, plus a transparent option when you do not want a fill.
Does it work for a batch of product photos?
Yes, apply the same frame to several images at once so a shop grid looks consistent.
Are my images uploaded?
No, the frame is drawn locally in your browser.

How much quality you actually lose
Lossy compression throws away detail your eye is least likely to notice - first fine texture, then edges. In practice most photographs look identical to the original down to roughly 75-80% quality, and differences only become obvious around faces, hair, foliage, fabric patterns and text. That is why a portrait and a screenshot need different settings: a face at 60% shows blotchy skin where a landscape at 60% still looks fine. Resizing matters more than quality for perceived sharpness: halving the pixel dimensions usually saves far more than dropping quality from 90 to 60, and the result looks better. If you need a specific file size, reduce dimensions first, then quality, and stop as soon as you hit the target rather than going lower than necessary.
Choosing between JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF
These formats solve different problems, and picking the wrong one costs you either quality or file size. JPG is the safest choice for photographs and for anything you need to send to someone else, because every device and program opens it - but it is lossy and has no transparency. PNG is lossless and supports transparency, which makes it right for logos, screenshots, diagrams and anything with sharp edges or text, at the cost of a much larger file. WebP typically beats JPG by 25-35% at the same visible quality and supports transparency, but a few older programs still cannot open it. AVIF compresses even further, especially at low quality settings, but encoding is slower and support is the newest of the four. A practical rule: JPG to send, PNG to edit, WebP for your own website, AVIF when every kilobyte counts and you have checked that your audience can open it.
