What image inversion does

Create a negative image in one click

Image inversion replaces each red, green, and blue value with its opposite, creating the familiar negative-image effect. The alpha channel is left untouched, so transparent PNG and WebP backgrounds stay transparent. Because this tool uses Canvas in your browser, you can preview the result before downloading it.

How to invert an image online

A simple three-step workflow for negative images and color experiments.

01

Upload your image

Choose a JPG, PNG, WebP, or another image your browser can read. You can drag, paste, or select a file.

02

Choose an inversion mode

Reverse all RGB channels for a full negative, or invert only red, green, or blue for a channel-specific effect.

03

Preview and download

Compare the original and inverted previews, then download a PNG that keeps the processed image dimensions and transparency.

Built for practical edits

More control than a one-click filter

Use the mode selector to create a full negative or experiment with one RGB channel while keeping the workflow simple.

Full negative

Invert every RGB value to create a classic negative image for photos, scans, and creative work.

Channel-specific color

Invert only red, green, or blue when you want a controlled color shift instead of a full negative.

Transparency preserved

The alpha channel is never changed, so transparent areas in PNG and WebP images remain transparent.
