Questions people ask
How do I make text readable on a busy photo?
Use a thick outline in a contrasting colour, for example white text with a black outline of 6 to 10. Bold sans fonts at a large size are easier to read than thin serif fonts.
Does long text wrap onto a new line?
Yes. Text wraps automatically when it reaches the edge of the picture. Press Enter in the text field to force a new line.
Is the output the same size as my photo?
Yes, up to 3000 px on the longest side. Larger images are scaled down to that size so the editor stays fast.
