Getting Started

First things first selecting a picture you can do this by either dragging your image file onto where it says "Drag and Drop Photo Here" or you can click "Get Photo" if you would rather browse your files. Once you have a picture selected you can start tracing parts of the image which will use the inside adjustments located to the right of the image, while the parts of the image not traced will use the outside adjustments, but if you would prefer you don't have to trace anything and just use the Outside adjustments to edit your image.
