Pixel Desk · Image Workspace

Edit images locally with layers, brushes, selections, color adjustments and text effects. Save projects and export PNG, JPG or WebP.

Pixel Desk brings layers, painting, retouching, selections and color adjustments into one image editing workspace in your browser. No account required—open an image and start creating. Use it for everyday photo edits, screenshot annotations, graphics and simple visual designs. LAYERS & MULTIPLE CANVASES Open several canvases and switch between tabs. Add transparent or solid-color layers, rename and reorder them, and control visibility or unlock the background. Move, resize and rotate content with Free Transform, and use the Navigator to zoom in on details. PAINTING & RETOUCHING Choose from Hard Round, Soft Round, Pencil and Highlighter brushes. Edit with the Eraser, Paint Bucket, Gradient, Clone Stamp, Dodge and Burn tools. Add mosaic or blur effects, arrows and shapes to obscure details or annotate an image. SELECTIONS & COLOR ADJUSTMENTS Make rectangular, elliptical or polygonal selections, or select by Color Range. Add to, subtract from, intersect or invert a selection, then copy, cut or paste the selected content. Fine-tune your image with Brightness/Contrast, Hue/Saturation, Levels, Curves, Black & White, Desaturate and Auto Tone. TEXT & EFFECTS Add editable text and choose from fonts installed on your computer. Combine Drop Shadow, Stroke and Gradient Overlay to give titles and annotations more character. HISTORY, PROJECTS & EXPORT Use Undo, Redo and History to return to earlier edits. Save a .pxdesk project to keep the original image and editable layers, or export a finished image as PNG, JPG or WebP. Save any projects you want to keep before refreshing or closing the editor. START FROM A WEBPAGE Capture the visible area of the current webpage, or right-click a web image and open it in Pixel Desk. Importing a web image requests access to its source site after you confirm. Browser internal pages and some restricted images may not be accessible. LOCAL EDITING Image editing and export take place locally in your browser. Your editing content is not uploaded to developer servers. The extension contains no ads or usage analytics. Web image imports connect to the image's source site only to retrieve the image you selected. Open an image, start creating, and make every image shine.
