Pypi release Twitter Stars Python 3 GitHub issues GitHub contributors License

A commandline tool + python library to glitchify images and even make GIFs out of them! Featuring 10 different levels of glitching intensity! The algorithm used to create glitched images is a slightly modifed version of the popular ImageGlitcher tool's algorithm, so you can expect the glitched images to look really cool!

NOW EASIER THAN EVER TO USE! Check out the docs!

If you like using this tool, please consider starring on Github!

FEATURES!

  • Choose from 10 gradually different levels of glitching intensity! Want just a tiny bit of glitching, enough to make your image look cool? - use level 2 (my favorite)!
  • Create Glitched GIFs from a normal image! That's right, before this tool, I had to manually download each image from ImageGlitcher, save them, and then head to a GIF creation website. Now you can do it all at once!
  • Customize the number of frames in a GIF as well as their duration - all from the comfort of your terminal!
  • Add scan lines for a retro CRT effect!
  • Oh and did I mention, color offset? Just like ImageGlitcher, this tool glitches the color channels as well as the pixels - for very convincing looking glitched images!

Requirements

  • python 3
  • pillow
  • numpy

These will be automatically installed when you install the library! (assuming you have python3)
