# Edit image

If you have an image asset (jpg, png, webm, etc) you can modify it with the in-built Image Editor in a multitude of ways, including cropping, resizing, applying filters or watermarks, and so on. You can save the results as a new version of the main image or as an entirely new asset.

### Edit image
