CSS Filter Generator (filter & backdrop-filter)

Adjust blur, brightness, contrast, grayscale, hue, saturation, sepia and more on a preview image (or your own) and copy the CSS filter or backdrop-filter rule.

Runs in your browser. Nothing you enter is uploaded. Last updated

How to use

  1. Optionally load your own image to preview on; it stays on your device.
  2. Move the sliders or pick a preset.
  3. Switch to backdrop-filter for frosted-glass panels, then copy the CSS.

What this tool does

CSS filters apply graphics effects in the browser without editing the image file. The generator writes only the functions you changed, in the order shown, because filter order affects the result.

Why it matters

Filters are handy for hover effects, consistent image tones and frosted-glass panels, without keeping several edited copies of an image.

Common uses

  • Greyscale logos that turn to colour on hover.
  • Frosted-glass navigation bars with backdrop-filter.

Tips

  • Filters cost rendering time; avoid large blur values on big, frequently repainted areas.
  • For backdrop-filter, give the panel a semi-transparent background.

Limitations

Filters change how an image looks, not its file size. To make images smaller, use the Image Compressor.

Frequently asked questions

Is backdrop-filter supported?

Yes, in current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. Older Safari versions need the -webkit- prefix, which the generator includes.
