Generating Background Images using JavaScript
January 18th 2024
Pixelart. It's my favorite art style and also a difficult one to get right, at least for me since I'm one of the most talent-less beings walking on earth when it comes to painting.
Luckily there is no need to be good at painting or pixelart when you've a computer. Let me introduce JIP-NG, the JavaScript Image Pixelator and Noise Generator:
But what is it for? Well, you can:
- Generate pixel-noise and use it as background image (like you see on this website)
- Pixelate existing pictures, therefore creating pixelart. See these examples:
Unlike php-noise.com (from which I shamelessly stole the idea) JIP-NG is client-side only. Now go play around with it and have fun!
