Imgix

Real-time image processing and delivery service for asset management, transformations, blending overlays, color adjustments, and origin imports.

Helps image-heavy apps that import assets from origin, blend overlays, position and align watermarks, and apply auto-optimization parameters.

Example Use Cases

These are example ways Snow can use Imgix when building apps with you. This list is meant to show examples, not document every possible capability. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these automatically on its own.

Adjust Image Brightness

Tool to adjust image brightness. Use when you need to modify an image's brightness level (−100 to 100) by supplying your source domain and asset path.

Adjust Image Contrast

Tool to adjust image contrast. Use when you need to modify an image's contrast level (−100 to 100).

Adjust Image DPI

Tool to embed DPI (dots-per-inch) metadata for print output on an Imgix-rendered image. Use when preparing images for print to set accurate DPI. Supports JPEG and PNG only.

Adjust Image Highlights

Tool to adjust highlight tonal mapping (−100 to 0). Use when preserving detail in bright areas of an image.

Blend Color Over Image

Tool to blend a solid color over an image using CSS keyword or hex. Use when you need to apply color overlay transformations to an existing image URL.

Blend Overlay

Tool to overlay an image, text, or color onto a base image using imgix blending parameters. Use after specifying the base image URL and blend parameters to composite layers.

Draw Image Border

Tool to draw a border around an image. Use when you need to overlay a border without resizing.

Force Aspect Ratio

Tool to force a target aspect ratio on an Imgix image. Use when a specific W:H frame is needed after choosing fit=crop or fit=fill. Example: 'ar=16:9&fit=crop&w=800' yields a 16:9, 800px-wide URL.

Imgix Auto Optimization

Apply automatic image optimizations using imgix's auto parameter. Use this tool to automatically optimize images for web delivery. Common use cases: - Reduce file sizes with 'compress' for faster page loads - Auto-select modern formats (AVIF/WebP) with 'format' based on browser support - Enhance image quality with 'enhance' (adjusts brightness, contrast, saturation) - Remove red-eye from portrait photos with 'redeye' Multiple options can be combined (e.g.,

Imgix Blend Align

Tool to align the overlay relative to the base image when blending. Use after constructing a base Imgix URL to specify horizontal and vertical alignment (e.g., 'left,top').
