Before we go deeper to the step by step guide, let’s clarify why image overlaying technique might be necessary. Here are 3 quick answers straight away:
- to protect photos with transparent watermarks or personal logos;
- to change photo background or cover/hide original background;
- to add photo effects like color distortion (for instance: old/grey/pink photo covers).
Photoscape X photo editor. Photoscape X is a simple but effective photo editor.It has a lot of functions with which to get the most out of your images, like retouch, manage, capture screen, add filters, create effects, etc.

Popclip 2019 1099. Let’s assume you have 2 usual PNG or JPEG photos. Here is what you should do to overlay two images:
- Download PhotoScape and open the “Editor” Tab;
- Open the folder with your 2 images using the left navigation menu;
- Choose an image you plan to place above and right-click it. Now select the option “Copy to Clipboard”;
- Choose the second image that serves as the basis. The image will be shown on the big photo editing area on the right. Now go to the bottom toolbar menu and click on the “Insert Photo” icon.
- Then select the option “Paste from Clipboard”. You will see that the first image is pasted over the second one.
- Soon a window will appear that enables you to play with opacity. This is the most important step because it let you adjust overlaying image transparency. So set the transparency level as you wish and proceed to image saving.
- The final step is image saving. PhotoScape let you replace original photo or create a new one. I suggest making a new photo as you might be not fully satisfied with the result.
I have to mention, you’d better try several times, before you become a PhotoScape guru. Don’t be afraid to play with opacity and image proportions. You can cancel all changes any time with the “Undo” button.
