Image Layering Tool

The Image Layering Tool provides a non-destructive canvas where users upload multiple image assets and arrange them in a stacked order. Each layer carries properties such as opacity, blend mode, visibility, and an optional mask, allowing precise control over how assets combine visually. The system prioritizes reproducibility, enabling designers to save layer configurations and apply them to similar projects, ensuring consistent results across assets and export targets. This makes it suitable for marketing visuals, product imagery, and portfolio work where compositing accuracy matters.

Conceptually, layers are composited from bottom to top using standard alpha-blending rules. The tool supports several blend modes (normal, multiply, screen, overlay, darken, lighten) and per-layer masking to reveal or hide portions of layers. It validates inputs, resizes or clamps assets to the canvas when needed, and exports to common formats such as PNG, JPEG, or SVG. Batch presets and saved configurations speed up recurring tasks, while non-destructive history preserves previous stacks for experimentation or rollback without re-importing assets.

Who benefits includes graphic designers, web publishers, social media teams, and e-commerce merchants who produce hero images, product collages, or layered graphics. The tool's differentiators are its explicit non-destructive workflow, support for both raster and vector inputs, flexible export options, and the ability to serialize a complete layer stack into reusable presets. Typical workflows include combining a logo with a textured background, tints and masks for branding variations, or creating composite thumbnails where alignment and overlap shapes matter.
