In this article, let us guide you in just how far you can go by using one the newly-introduced creative filters, Polar Coordinates.<\/p>\n

What is the Polar Coordinates filter?<\/b><\/p>\n

If you are just starting your journey in photo editing, this particular filter may come off as daunting at first. You may even struggle in finding the perfect image that would suit it. Not to worry! We are here to provide you with the most effective solution.<\/p>\n

With the Polar Coordinates filter in Pixlr, you can create \u201clittle planets\u201d. This edit is pretty self-explanatory based on its name. The idea is to select a horizontal panoramic image and transform it into a sphere using the Polar Coordinates filter.<\/p>\n

As a result, you would create your very own tiny planet (or miniature globes, if you will) with the landscape of your choice. This new filter makes it easy for you to achieve this cool effect, as it only takes a few steps to create this personalized small world of your own. Here\u2019s how;<\/p>\n

Step #1: Start with the right image<\/p>\n

To ensure your editing journey goes smooth-sailing, it is imperative to start by choosing the right image. This image must be able to illustrate its potential, preferably panoramic and has clean edges. You can choose from cityscapes, mountains or even trees.<\/p>\n

Though there is no specific formula as to know exactly which image will work, we can tell you for sure that practice makes perfect, and that the more editing you do with this filter, the more you can gauge which types of images produces the best result.<\/p>\n

Once you find one, open up Pixlr E and upload it onto the platform by clicking \u2018Open Image\u2019. If you would like to select one from our vast collection of premium stock images, you can do so too. Simply upgrade your plan to Creative Pack to remove the images\u2019 watermarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
