Frequently asked questions

What does inverting colors do?

Each pixel color value is subtracted from the maximum (255). White becomes black, black becomes white, and all colors shift to their opposite hue.

Can I invert back to the original?

Yes — apply the invert tool twice and you get the original image back, since inverting twice cancels out.

Does inversion affect image quality?

No. The transformation is mathematically reversible and does not affect resolution or sharpness.

Can I invert only part of an image?

Our tool inverts the entire image. For partial inversion, use a desktop editor.

What format is best for inverted images?

PNG for images with sharp edges and graphics. JPG for photographs.
