It’s October again and that means it’s time for a long-standing Ribbet tradition: our annual Halloween photo editing contest!

The winner will take home $500 cash and we are also giving away 5 runner-up prizes of $100 each. For full details and rules, see the description in our contest post on Facebook or Instagram.

If you’re looking for inspiration on what you can do with Ribbet and how to get your Halloween photos to really stand out, check out the recording from our latest live webinar, in which we show you how to use pro tools like clone, burn, dodge, pro adjust and Halloween stickers.

You can also ask our community or find inspiration on our Facebook group dedicated to learning Ribbet, which anyone is free to join here.

We’re running a new contest this month to see what social distancing has looked like for our community.

This time around, the winner will receive access to a photography masterclass taught by world-renowned portrait photographer, Annie Leibovitz!

The deadline to enter is May 18th and a winner will be selected by May 25th. To get all the details and to make your submission, click here.

Good luck and we look forward to seeing your submissions!

Happy Halloween from the Ribbet team (wait that almost rhymes!)

The latest version of Ribbet for iOS has just been released and now supports applying your favorite effects and filters selectively.

How does it work?

This feature lets you choose an area of your photo where you’d like an effect to be applied. Simply open an effect, tap the Eraser icon and paint the area you want to erase.

This lets you adjust contrast, exposure, color and sharpness on selective areas of your photo. You can color splash one part of a photo, leaving the rest black and white, or apply any other Ribbet filter or tool selectively.

How do you remove backgrounds from images?

1. Start with a Blank Canvas or a new background image
2. Add your photo as a Watermark
3. Use the Erase tool to remove the background.

We’re in love with this new capability and can’t wait for you to check it out! Selective effects will be available on Android soon.

We’re working on a brand new product! Set to be Ribbet’s flagship software, we’re building a new, browser-based photo editor, collage maker and design tool. There’s a lot to be excited about, but we can’t share many details just yet. But, if you’d like to become an early, beta tester, now is your chance. You can sign up here.

Add a little magic to your photos with Ribbet’s new Overlays section, featuring effects like Bokeh, Light Leaks, Vignette and Gradients.

Available now on desktop and web
