# Filtering Images

Comic Life comes equipped with a number of image filters to give your photos a comic book look.

Filtering your image:
- Select the photo you want to filter.

  Remember to double click if the photo is within a panel.

- Click on the filter control in the Format Bar

  If the filter control is disabled make sure you've actually selected the image and not just the panel.

- Choose the filter you want to use.

  Comic Life 3 filters come with a Level slider that lets you adjust the amount of the effect.

  Filters from earlier versions of Comic Life are available under the Old Filters item in the popup menu.
