→Frequently asked questions
- How do I give a photo a volcanic look?
- Select your photo and Ember Rock crushes shadows toward black, pushes highlights toward molten orange-red, and adds drifting embers automatically.
- What does the Ember Rock filter do?
- It applies a shadow-and-highlight split tone toward black and ember orange, boosts contrast, layers in sparse ember-spark particles, and adds coarse grain.
- Can I control how intense the ember effect is?
- Yes. The intensity slider scales the color grade, contrast, ember particles, and grain together.
- What file formats can I export?
- You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
