Pixel operations work with browser-decoded 8-bit RGBA. They can discard source metadata, color profiles or higher bit depth. PNG compression compares decoded pixels, not byte-identical files. Animated images are rejected here; use animation tools instead.

Are images uploaded for processing?

Image processing runs locally in your browser. Public pages can also load advertising and optional Analytics, as described in the privacy information.

Can I use large or animated images?

Still images are limited to 20 MiB and 8 million pixels. Animated images are rejected here; use the APNG or GIF tools.

Does export preserve the original file exactly?

Pixel operations use decoded 8-bit RGBA and encode a new PNG. Higher bit depth, metadata and color-profile details may change. Compare the preview and retain your original.
