Downgrades resolution! Result is ok.

My use case is probably not topical but just sharing. Still satisfied with the outcome.
Added a lens flare to a RAW photo that was 37MP 8292x4608 and over 48MB. After the lens flare was added and photo exported, its size became 9MP 4095x2304 and 1.6MB. Didn’t see a quality setting but it would be great if it could export the same resolution that you are modifying.

Get It

These apps are some of my best tools for editing pics! I barely even share what app I use, I keep it a secret! And you will too! The only thing I’d like is to control the second end of the flare, but very good!

Floja

La App para iPhone es genial. Estoy suscrito y va de coña!
Pero la misma App para iPad es súper floja, apenas puedes a hacer cosas y encima me la hacen pagar de nuevo.
