Use the tool. Respect the source.
These terms govern your use of SilMaker at silmaker.com and the files it creates. By using the tool, you agree to use it lawfully and only with images you are allowed to process.
LAST UPDATED: AUGUST 2, 2026The service
SilMaker is a browser-based utility that attempts to detect the main subject of an image and create three raster PNG outputs: a solid-color subject over the original scene, a matching subject on transparency, and a transparent outline version. Features, supported formats, and availability may change as the tool improves.
Your images and your rights
You keep whatever rights you already hold in an image and its output. SilMaker does not claim ownership of the image you select or the PNG generated from it. The conversion does not give you new rights to a photograph, character, logo, artwork, person's likeness, or other protected material.
You are responsible for making sure you own the image, have permission or a suitable license, or otherwise have a lawful basis to process and use it.
Acceptable use
Do not use SilMaker to:
- infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
- create or distribute unlawful, abusive, exploitative, or deceptive material;
- interfere with the site, bypass reasonable limits, or attempt to compromise its software or hosting;
- misrepresent an output as proof of identity, authenticity, or factual events.
Output quality
Subject detection is automatic and can make mistakes. Fine hair, transparent objects, low contrast, reflections, overlapping subjects, and cropped shapes may produce incomplete or inaccurate results. Review every output before publishing, printing, or relying on it in another project.
No warranty
The tool is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without a promise that it will always be available, error-free, or suitable for a particular purpose. Save important source images and finished files somewhere you control.

Changes
These terms may be updated when the service, its business model, or legal requirements change. Continued use after an updated version is published means the updated terms apply to later use.
