💡 Pro Tips & Tricks
🎯 Image Selection
Choose images with strong contrast and interesting lighting. Photos taken during golden hour or with dramatic shadows work exceptionally well with duotone effects.
🌈 Color Psychology
Pink tones evoke warmth and emotion, while green suggests nature and tranquility. Use reverse mapping to create different moods - pink shadows for mystery, green highlights for energy.
📐 Composition Matters
Duotone effects work best with simple, strong compositions. Busy backgrounds can become distracting when color-filtered, so focus on images with clear subjects.
⚡ Performance Tips
For large images (>10MP), consider resizing before processing on mobile devices. Our tool handles any size, but smaller images process faster on limited hardware.
🎨 Creative Applications
Try duotone effects on black and white photos for unique results. The lack of original color information often produces more dramatic and artistic effects.
