I've set up all my nodes and connected the last noodle to the Composite node, but how do I then export the new image? The Render Result in the UV/Image Editor hasn't changed and I can't see a Save Image option or anything. Am I missing something or do I need to re-render?

  • $\begingroup$ Once Compositor is used you should see changes in the render result. If there aren't, try checking if compositing nodes are enabled; also try placing image editor and Nodes editor next to each other and run compositing ones more, see blender.stackexchange.com/questions/23999/…. No need to re-render; it works atop of any image/render. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ It depends: if you are rendering a single image just press F12 the image will be rendered and has to be saved as image from the UV/image editor. If you are dealing with animation press Ctrl F12 to render and the animation will save using the settings on the Output section of the Properties window.

It should work as Mr. Zak says, anyway you can create a viewer node in the compositor, then choose viewer in the UV/Image window and save the image.

I connected the composite output node to the original image to have the behaviour you described, maybe that was the problem?
