Frequently asked

questions

How do I create an image overlay?

You’ll need at least two images to create an overlay.

First, upload your base image to Colorcinch. Then, use the Image Manager to upload a second image (or search our stock photos library).

Click on the second image and in the Layer Properties dialog box, play around with the different Blend Modes and Opacity settings. When you’re happy with the end result, click Save.

How is image overlay different from color overlay?

While using the overlay option, you’re blending two images together into one, i.e. a base image with a secondary image. With a color overlay option, you’re overlaying a single image with a solid color. It’s one of the easiest but most impactful photo editing tools you can use.

Is it necessary that I upload at least two images for the overlay effect?

Colorcinch features a vast collection of built-in overlay presets that you can apply to your image. Overlay presets only require a single image.

To access the overlay presets, navigate to Overlays where you’ll find a handful of categories such as Texture, Sun Flare & Haze, Light Leaks and others. Try experimenting with various presets until you find the one you like.

What does it mean to overlay two images?

Overlay refers to the act of adding a layer to your images. You can overlay images with transparency, create overlapping images, blend images online, or superimpose photos or photo elements onto a base image. There are plenty of editing tools that layer photos online, but Colorcinch is the easiest! And it’s free!
