Change an ID photo background colour
White, blue, red in one click; sizes ready. Photo never uploaded, no watermark.
The top reason an ID photo gets rejected usually isn't the person — it's the background colour: this exam wants white, that visa wants blue, the pension system wants red. The photograph itself is the same one; it's the patch behind the head that has to change.
What changes is the background, not you: the cutout model finds the edge of the person and replaces only the layer behind, keeping the transition through loose hair. The photo is never uploaded — the model files (about 100MB) come down from staticimgly.com and run inside your browser; the photo itself never leaves your device. The first download can take half a minute, then your browser caches it. Backdrops are white, blue, red, gray or transparent; with a colour you download a JPG, transparent gives a PNG. “Size” has 6 common formats at 300dpi: 25×35mm · 295×413, 22×32mm · 260×378, 33×48mm · 390×567, 35×49mm · 413×579, 35×45mm · 413×531 and 35×53mm · 413×626; pick one and the photo is centre-cropped to it, while the default “Original” leaves it uncropped. One thing to be clear about: this handles background colour and size only, and guarantees no official approval — rules on pose, clothing, visible ears, expression and lighting differ by country and authority.

FAQ
- Will there be a watermark? Does it cost anything?
- No watermark and no charge. Free, no sign-up, no limit, and the exported file carries no mark of any kind.
- Is my photo uploaded to your servers?
- No. The first time you use it, the cutout model files download once from staticimgly.com and run inside your browser — the model comes down, nothing goes up. The model is then cached, so it keeps working offline.
- What pixel size should an ID photo be?
- At 300dpi: the Chinese 1-inch size (25×35mm) is 295×413, small 1-inch 260×378, large 1-inch 390×567, 2-inch (35×49mm) is 413×579, small 2-inch 413×531, large 2-inch 413×626. Note that the Chinese "1-inch" is not one imperial inch — it is a photo-studio name kept from older practice.
- Will it pass official checks?
- No guarantee. This handles background colour and size only; rules on pose, clothing, whether ears must be visible, expression and lighting differ by country and authority, and the shot itself has to meet them. For physical prints, order through TutuPrints.
