How to use Replace JPG Colors
- 1. Upload the JPG photo. Add the .jpg or .jpeg file with the color you want to swap out. The preview appears so you can check exactly which shade you are about to target.
- 2. Set the Color to replace, New color and Tolerance. Pick the existing shade in Color to replace and the shade you want instead in New color. Raise Tolerance to catch the compression variation JPGs naturally introduce around that color.
- 3. Download the recolored JPG. Every pixel within tolerance of the original color is repainted with the new one, and the rest of the photo is left alone. Download the updated file when it looks right.
When to use Replace JPG Colors
Replace JPG Colors swaps one specific color throughout a photo for another, without touching the rest of the image. It is built for targeted recoloring, such as changing a product's shown color, rather than a full-image color grade.
- Showing a product in an alternate color. A retailer photographed a shirt in red but wants a quick blue variant for a listing. Replacing #ff0000 with #0000ff at a moderate tolerance repaints the shirt without a new photoshoot.
- Correcting a brand color in a photographed sign. A storefront photo shows the old logo color; swapping it for the current brand hex gives marketing an updated-looking image without redesigning the sign itself.
- Adjusting team colors in a diagram photo. A whiteboard photo used red and blue for two teams, but the presentation needs green and orange to match slide branding, so the colors get swapped directly on the image.
- Fixing a color that scanned wrong. A scanned illustration turned an intended purple into a muddy brown under JPG compression; replacing the brown with the correct purple restores the intended look.
Examples

Input
