Basics
Learn the basics of background removal with Clipping Magic: how to apply the red / green marks, and how to deal with some common pitfalls.
Refine Edges: Handle Noise, Low Contrast, Blur
You have complete control over how the edge of your image is handled.
You can set the level of smoothing that is applied, to avoid jagged edges on noisy images, while still preserving details on clean ones.
Feathering lets you specify how wide you want the transition zone to be between fully opaque and fully transparent / background color.
While Clipping Magic offers you industry leading fully-automatic halo reduction, a configurable offset enables you to handle any halo gracefully.
Configurable Defaults
You can set the defaults for new images to match your preferences so you don't have to start every image configuring the basics.
Everything from the brush size and the background color to the crop details are fully under your control – just configure an image to have the settings you like, then make the ones you want to keep the defaults for future images.
Tip: Turn on Auto Color Levels, Fit To Result, and set a Target Size to produce vibrant, clean, and consistent catalogs.

Help is only a click away
Officially supported file formats are: JPEG, PNG, BMP, and GIF images using the sRGB color space. That said, we do our best to accept any image format your browser can read. CMYK causes some browsers to show you the wrong colors while you edit, though the result should still come out ok.
The maximum allowed image size is 8 megapixels, regardless of aspect ratio. Your active size limit can be configured in the app up to the maximum limit. Images larger than the active size limit will be shrunk to that size. Note that this is pixels, not bytes, and there is currently no image byte size limitation.
Officially supported browsers are the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge running on modern desktops and laptops, though other modern browsers may also work.
