Effects

Combine effects into editable recipes.

The library gives you the parts. The stack lets you decide the order, opacity and blend mode, then keep changing the result until export.

Glitch base

Start with RGB split, slice, databend or pixel sort to disturb the source structure.

Pixel pass

Resize, pixelate, mosaic or offset bands before the image gets too polished.

Pattern + color

Run dither, palette, hue and solarize passes as editable layers in the stack.

Display finish

Use scanlines, CRT, halftone or hardware limits as final display-style passes.
