Image Text Editor

Hi HN! I built ImageTextEditor — a small web tool to edit text that’s already inside an image. The goal is to keep the workflow minimal: upload → select the text area → type replacement → generate. I’m focusing on making the edit look natural by removing the old text and reconstructing the background, instead of just overlaying new text. Current status: [what works best], known limitations: [hard cases]. I’d love feedback on: cases where the result looks “patched”, what export/pricing model feels fair for a tool like this, which image types you most want it to handle well (screenshots…

What it does

Image Text Editor helps you replace words already embedded in JPG, PNG, and WebP images when the original design file is unavailable. Instead of adding text on top, it detects existing text areas, lets you choose what to change, and generates an edited image while preserving the surrounding background and layout. Useful for posters, product images, screenshots, banners, and labels.

Replace text in JPG, PNG, or WebP images online without changing the background or losing quality. Keep the original size and layout intact. Try it free.

Change text inside a JPG, PNG, or WebP without rebuilding the image. Choose the words you want to replace, compare the result with the original, and download the finished image. The editor uses the original lettering and surrounding design as a visual reference. Always review spelling and nearby details before publishing. We’ll detect the visible text so you can choose exactly what to replace. An image text editor is an online tool for changing words already embedded in a JPG, PNG, or WebP image without the original design file. Select the text you want to replace, enter the new wording, then review and download the edited image. Ready to make a focused change? Start to edit text in your…from imagetexteditor.dev

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
