Description

Juxtaposer lets you combine multiple pictures into creative and fun photomontages quickly and easily.

Take any element from one picture and add it to another. Remix your pets into a mythical creature, swap a statue's head with your friend's, or combine photos into surreal and beautiful works of art. Juxtaposer has the power and features of a professional creative tool, but is simple to use and just as importantly, it's fun!

Features:

- Short tutorial videos will turn you into a photomontage artist in no time.
- The new Magic Crop feature makes it super fast and easy to cut something out of your top image, thanks to a powerful Machine Learning model.
- Your composite images are exported at the full resolution of the background image, even if it's huge (40 MP+)!
- The image adjustment tools let you match your images' color and lighting, and fine-tune the look of your creation.
- Zoom in to work on fine details with pixel-level accuracy.
- Add elements from as many photos as you like to your background image.
- Load photos from your iPhone photo library, Unsplash, Dropbox or Flickr, .
- Email your photomontages to friends, share them on Flickr or save them to your Dropbox.
- Save your cutout images in the Stamp Manager for later use. You can also share these "stamps" with friends or export them as transparent PNGs.
- Undo any edit. Experiment safely, you can always get back to where you started.
- 20 blend modes (like Multiply, Screen and Overlay) let advanced users create unique effects.
- The "red mask" view mode shows you just the top image with the erased parts in red. It is helpful when precisely cutting out an element.

* WhatsOnIphone.com: "The application works incredibly well and makes an otherwise challenging process simple and fun. It blows my mind that you can do such things on an iPhone."
* IphoneAppReviews: "Pretty much everyone, at some point in time, has had the uncontrollable urge to take a friend’s photo and do something truly evil with it. Juxtaposer is an awesome photo-editing tool that can make that dream a reality!"

Juxtaposer 3.0 is the biggest update since we first released the app over 5 years ago! We've kept the fun and powerful editing you've come to expect, but added a great-looking new UI, a new icon, and many of the features you've requested. We hope you'll love it.

High resolution output
- The original resolution of your background image will now always be preserved, even if it is a 40 Megapixel photo!
- We will also automatically increase the output resolution when the background image is low resolution, but the top image is not. So everything will look nice and sharp in your saved image.

Image Editing
- New adjustment sliders allow you to change each image's brightness, saturation, color temperature and more. This makes it easy to create natural looking composites from photos taken under different lighting conditions.
- You can now undo everything, including stamping, image adjustments and image replacements.
- A full suite of blend modes and an opacity slider allow you greater control over how the top and background images are combined.

Brush Monitor
- The new brush monitor feature lets you see what is under your finger while you paint.
- You can turn the monitor on and off in the Settings menu.

Loading and Sharing
- Load images from Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Dropbox, Picasa and Google+.
- Load PNGs with transparency as the top image.
- Share your finished image on Dropbox, Instagram, Google+ and Picasa (in addition to Facebook, Twitter and Flickr).

Stamps
- We've added a Stamp Manager that helps you view and manage your stamps.
- Stamps can be emailed, saved to Dropbox and exported as transparent PNGs.
