Transformations

PixelBin's image transformations enable you to:

1. Transform the image size and format based on your platform of choice.
2. Bring focus on a particular element of the image, and apply effects and visual enhancements to bring the best out of the visual.
3. Automatically remove backgrounds and watermarks in one click.
4. Generate fresh images by adding layers such as backgrounds, watermarks and logos to the image.
