How to Do a Transparent Blur Picture into OBS?

Use a PNG with transparency for the picture

Add the PNG to OBS as an Image source

If you want the picture itself blurred, blur it in an editor first and save as PNG

If you want the background behind the picture blurred, duplicate the source

Put the duplicate underneath the original image

Apply a blur filter to the duplicate source

Keep the top source unblurred

Lower the opacity of the blurred layer if needed

Use a masking image if you want blur only in a specific shape

Add the mask as an Image source or use a plugin that supports masks

Use a browser source with CSS blur if the image is web-based

Use a filter/plugin such as StreamFX if you need stronger blur options

Make sure the source order in the Sources list is correct

Use Alt-drag crop if you need to fit the image cleanly

Use the Transform options to resize and position the image

Save the scene after setting the blur and transparency correctly
