Image Negative Filter

Flip every colour to its opposite

Inverting an image replaces every colour with its opposite: black becomes white, and each colour becomes its complement. This tool applies that negative effect to a photo, producing the film-negative look and, along the way, a genuinely useful transformation for reading certain images.

Why a negative is sometimes easier to read

A negative is not only an artistic effect. Faint detail in a dark image can become obvious once inverted, light text on a dark scan can flip to dark on light, and some documents are simply easier to read reversed. The inversion is exact and reversible: applying it twice returns the original, because each colour maps to its complement and back.

Instant and local

The inversion is a per-pixel operation that runs instantly in your browser, so even a large image flips at once and nothing is uploaded. Use it for the film-negative aesthetic, to reveal detail in a dark image, or to reverse a scan. Export the result when you are done.
