Introduction To Photopea

 

Introduction

Photopea is an advanced image editor, which can work with both raster and vector graphics. You can use it for simple tasks, such as resizing images, as well as complex tasks, such as designing webpages, creating illustrations, processing photographs and more.

This website will teach you how to use Photopea step by step. We will start with basic tasks and gradually progress to more complex features. The chapters (on the left) have been organized, such that each chapter uses only the knowledge from previous chapters, so you can learn effectively and efficiently.

Colors

Right now, Photopea works with the sRGB color space (the basic color space for the web), with the 8-bit color depth. All exported files use sRGB, too.

Starting and using Photopea

Photopea editor works in a web browser. It can be started by going to www.Photopea.com. Photopea can run on any device (desktop, laptop, tablet, phone or any other computer), but for the best comfort, we recommend having a big screen, a precise pointing device (a mouse or a stylus) and a keyboard.

Photopea runs completely in your device, just like Sketch or Photoshop do. It does not upload any of your files to the internet. You can load Photopea.com, disconnect from the internet and keep using it completely offline. None of your files ever leaves your computer.

A guide is a horizontal or a vertical line, which is displayed over the document and can help you align elements. To add or delete a guide, select the Move tool and enable rulers. To add a guide, click on the ruler and drag the mouse into the document. To delete a guide, click on it and drag it onto the ruler. To move existing guides, click on them with a Move tool and drag them to a new location. Grid Designers often need to place some elements regularly, with an equal distance between them. Instead of adding many guides with the same spaces between them, we can use the  grid . A regular grid will be displayed over your document, which can help you align other elements. Pix
