A finished layout, using your own pictures
Show the difference, with the labels in the right place
Put an original and an edited image together for a renovation, a product update or an AI-edit review. Add your own labels and keep the two views at a comparable scale. The comparison maker combines supplied pictures; it does not perform the transformation or prove what caused the difference.
Editable comparison labels
Write short labels that match your actual source images.
Consistent framing controls
Move the crop and zoom in each slot before judging the difference.
No extra transformation
The layout does not generate a new face, room or product.
Compare an original with a deliberate crop
The example shows one source photograph in a wider framing and a closer crop. It demonstrates layout and labeling only, not an AI enhancement result. For your own before-and-after work, upload the actual two versions and position the same subject consistently so the difference is easy to inspect.
Try this tool
Use labels that describe what really changed
Change Before and After to Original and Edit, Option A and Option B, or dates that match your images. Use a horizontal or stacked layout according to the source proportions. Keep lighting and framing differences in mind: a visual comparison is more trustworthy when the labels explain the context instead of exaggerating the outcome.

What can you make with it?
Spaces and renovation plans
Show the original room beside a proposal, and label simulated designs clearly.
Product and design iterations
Compare packaging or color directions with Option A/B labels when neither is a before/after result.
How to make your first design
- 01
Bring the actual two versions
Upload the original and changed image, or two options you want to compare. The tool does not create the edited version.
- 02
Align the crops and edit the labels
Choose a horizontal or stacked comparison. Put the subject at a similar scale, and replace the default labels with accurate wording.
- 03
Review and download the comparison
Read the labels and inspect each side at the final size. Choose the output format and download according to the selected free or member design.
Why use a layout tool after generating images with ChatGPT?
AI image generation is useful for creating a scene, exploring a style or inventing a visual. Combining finished image files into a specific layout is a different task: you may need a specific number of photos, the same face in every source, equal gutters and a caption you can edit without generating the whole image again.
ChatGPT can attempt collage-like images and may also assemble files with code. This comparison concerns generating a new picture from a prompt, not every capability of a chat assistant. Image models can still struggle with precise placement in structured compositions; a layout editor gives you direct control over where existing files go. Read the image-model composition limitations
| What you need | Generate a new collage image | Arrange files in this editor |
|---|---|---|
| Keep the selected source pictures | A generative edit may reinterpret details. | Place the supplied files into slots; no generative redraw. Cropping and resizing still apply. |
| Control count, position and spacing | Describe the layout, then check whether the result follows it. | Choose a known layout, swap positions and set the gap directly. |
| Change a caption or one crop | Another generation or edit may be needed. | Edit the caption or crop control while keeping the other slots. |
| Understand the cost | Generation depends on the service and model pricing. | These photo tools use no AI credits. Premium designs are an existing subscription benefit. |
Generate with AI. Finish the layout here.
No need to replace the image model you already use. Keep the pictures you like, then combine them into one deliverable. You do not need to write prompts for margins, learn layers or connect your ChatGPT account.

Choose the layout and download
Arrange the photos, check the crop in every slot, add labels if needed and choose the output size. Sign in for a free-content download, or use an active subscription for premium designs.
A few choices for a cleaner result
Keep the same subject scale
A close-up on one side and a distant view on the other can make the comparison misleading.
Be clear about simulations
Label AI-generated proposals, staged rooms or concept images so viewers understand the context.
Use neutral labels for alternatives
Use Option A and Option B when you are choosing between two ideas rather than showing measured improvement.
File support and export settings
- Input formats
- Static JPG, PNG and WebP. Convert HEIC, GIF, animated files and other formats before upload.
- Upload limits
- A project can keep up to 16 source photos; each file must stay within 10 MiB and 20 megapixels, with a 50 MiB combined limit. The selected template determines how many slots are shown.
- Output dimensions
- 64–4096 pixels on either side, within 16 megapixels in total. Export size does not recreate detail missing from a small or blurry input.
- Download formats
- PNG for graphics and text; JPG or WebP for smaller photographic files. Check the file at its intended display size after compression.
- Printing and social posts
- Choose the final aspect ratio before adjusting crops. Pixels are not a print-size or DPI guarantee; confirm dimensions, bleed and safe areas with your printer or publishing platform.
Questions before you start
Will the tool create the after image for me?
No. Supply both versions yourself. You can create or enhance an image with another tool first, then bring the original and result here. The example on this page compares framing choices, not an automated transformation.
Is this an interactive before-and-after slider?
The current output is a static combined image with labels. It is not an interactive slider, GIF or video. Use it when you need one downloadable comparison graphic for a post, presentation or message.
Can I compare two generated concepts instead of before and after?
Yes. Replace the labels with Option A and Option B or other accurate descriptions. The layout will not evaluate quality or choose a winner; it simply makes your supplied images easier to compare.
Can I use images generated by ChatGPT or another AI model?
Yes. Download them as supported image files, then upload them here. This does not connect to your external account or regenerate the pictures. CreateVision images can also be selected from My creations when their source files remain available.
Will this change faces, invent details or remove existing watermarks?
No generative redraw is used. The editor crops, scales, rotates and places your input images. Export encoding can change pixels, and an existing watermark stays part of the input. Review source-image rights and any AI-service usage terms before publishing.
What is free, and when do I need an account?
You can upload, edit and preview without an account. Sign in to download a design containing only free layouts and backgrounds without a platform watermark. Selected premium layouts and materials require an active paid subscription for a clean preview and download.
Do premium templates cost credits or need a separate plan?
No extra tool plan or AI credits are required. Active Basic, Premium, Ultimate and Max subscriptions include all member layouts, styled frames, themed backgrounds and custom row-and-column grids. Credit packs and single-image original purchases do not unlock these benefits.
Where are my files processed and saved?
Free editing runs in your browser. Premium previews and exports use encrypted temporary cloud files with 24-hour access expiry and scheduled physical cleanup. Local drafts stay on this device for up to seven days. A fresh tool visit starts empty; use Resume previous draft or the same draft URL to continue your work.
Why does a photo look soft after export?
A low-resolution source, a heavy crop or strong JPG/WebP compression can soften detail. Start with the original file rather than a screenshot, keep important subjects inside the crop, and avoid exporting far beyond the input resolution. If the source itself needs enhancement, use a separate enhancement tool before arranging it.
Make the comparison easy to understand
Start with your own photos and a free layout. Adjust the result directly; no prompt-writing or layer-editing experience is needed.
