Invert PNG Colors

Flip every colour in your PNG

Inverting an image swaps each colour for its opposite, turning a normal picture into a photo negative. It is useful for creating striking artwork, building light-on-dark versions of icons and diagrams, or simply seeing familiar images in a completely new way.

This tool inverts the red, green and blue values of every pixel while leaving transparency alone. It runs in the browser, so a single image or a whole batch flips instantly and never leaves your device.

How to invert PNG colours

1. Drop your PNG images into the box above, or click to choose them.
2. Each image is inverted to its negative automatically.
3. Preview the flipped colours against the original.
4. Click Download PNG, or export the batch as a ZIP.

What inverting is good for

Dark-mode assets

Inverting a black-on-white diagram or icon is a quick way to produce a light-on-dark version for a dark interface.

Creative negatives

The negative effect can turn an ordinary photo into something bold and unexpected for art or design projects.

Reversible and lossless

Because inverting twice restores the original and the alpha channel is untouched, you can experiment freely without losing anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my images uploaded to invert them?

No. The colours are inverted by your browser on your own device, so the PNG never leaves your machine and nothing is stored online.

What does inverting the colours do?

It replaces each colour with its exact opposite, so white becomes black, black becomes white, and every hue flips to its complement, giving a photo-negative look.

Is the transparency kept?

Yes. Only the colour values are inverted; the alpha channel is left untouched, so transparent areas remain transparent.

Can I undo the effect?

Yes. Inverting an already inverted image returns it to the original colours, so the effect is fully reversible.

Can I invert several PNGs at once?

Yes. Add multiple PNG files and download all of the inverted results together as a single ZIP.
