Changing an image’s brightness, contrast, and other settings

You can use the Adjust Image window to improve or enhance a photo’s appearance by modifying its brightness, contrast, exposure, and other settings.

Note:This does not apply to photos you’ve added to the photo grid of a photos or albums page.

To modify images:

  1. Select the image on your webpage in iWeb by clicking it.

  2. Click the Adjust button in the toolbar at the bottom of the iWeb window.

  3. Image of the Adjust button.
  4. In the Adjust Image window, make adjustments using the controls:

  5. Brightness: Adjusts the lightness of the image.

    Contrast: Adjusts the contrast of light and dark tones in the image to darken shadows, sharpen the edges of objects, or make colors stand out more. High contrast makes a photo look more like an illustration.

    Saturation: Changes the color intensity.

    Temperature: Introduces more warmth (orange tones) or coolness (blue tones).

    Tint: Adds more red or green tones to the image.

    Sharpness: Makes the focus sharper or softer.

    Exposure: Adjusts shadows and highlights.

    Levels: Controlled with the slider below the histogram, changes the levels of light and dark tones in the image. The histogram depicts the relationship between the image’s shadows (on the left) and highlights (on the right).

    Enhance: Automatically chooses settings for you, even if you’ve already changed one or more settings.

    Reset Image: Cancels any changes you made in the Adjust Image window and restores the image to its original form. This works even if you close the Adjust Image window and reopen it to work on the image again.
