FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make only a specific part of an image transparent?
Our tool features a "Regional Transparency" mode. Simply select the specific area you want to fade using our interactive preview canvas, or input the exact X/Y coordinates and dimensions to apply uniform transparency only to that rectangular selection.
Can I create a faded gradient effect with my image?
Yes! You can choose between Linear and Radial gradients. Linear gradients can fade in four directions (left-to-right, right-to-left, top-to-bottom, bottom-to-top), while Radial gradients let you fade from the inside-out or outside-in with an adjustable transparency radius.
Are my private images uploaded to your servers?
Absolutely not. Image Studio operates entirely client-side. Your images are processed directly within your browser's memory, ensuring your files are never uploaded, stored, or viewed by anyone but you.
What file formats are supported for preserving transparency?
While you can upload standard formats like JPG, PNG, WebP, and SVG, we highly recommend downloading your final semitransparent image as a PNG or WebP to fully preserve the alpha transparency channel.
