Photo effects that are
dials, not actions you wait for
A photo, a mask of what is in it, and an effect over the two. The first rebuilds the subject from figures and lets it come apart at the edge — the effect a Photoshop action makes in a few minutes of replayed steps, here with every number live. É grátis. De verdade.
- A photo and a mask.
- Any photo, and the subject as a cut-out PNG or a black-and-white mask — either way round.
- Every number live.
- Size, density, edge, flight, shadow and blur, all dials that redraw while you move them.
- The same picture at any size.
- The preview is a smaller copy of the file, laid out from the same seed.
- Your fonts.
- The figures are set in any font installed on your machine.
- Nothing is uploaded.
- The photo, the mask and the picture never leave your browser.
- PNG or JPEG out.
- At the photo's size or up to twice it, with the background made up, a color, or clear.
What it makes
One effect now, made properly
Every effect takes the same photo and mask; the dials are its own.
The subject, rebuilt from figures
- Figures laid at several sizes, in the photo's own colors
- Each with a short shadow, so they read as raised
- The edge comes apart into digits
- Figures fly off one way, all round, or between
Two files, nothing to paint
- A cut-out PNG brings its own mask
- Or a black-and-white mask, either way round
- A switch when it reads the wrong way
- Shown over the picture to check it
Any characters, any font
- Digits by default, any characters you like
- Set in the fonts installed on your machine
- Color from the photo or one of your own
- Lighter, darker, denser, bigger, turned
Where the subject goes
- Direction, and how much it flies out all round
- How far, how scattered, how turned
- Fading and shrinking as they go
- Edge depth, crumb size and roughness
In detail
The photo, the figures, the flight and the file
Every dial the effect has.
The photo
- JPEG, PNG or WebP, any size the browser holds
- A cut-out PNG, or a separate mask
- Mask read either way round, with a switch
- Background made up from around the subject, a color, or clear
The figures
- Any characters, in any installed font
- Strength, size, density and turn of the figures
- How much of the photo shows under them
- Color from the photo or your own, lighter or darker
- A shadow with opacity, distance, angle and softness
The edge and the flight
- Dissolve, edge depth, crumb size and roughness
- How many fly, and their smallest and largest size
- Direction, all-round share and spread
- Scatter, spin, fade and shrink
The finish
- Zoom blur: how many and how long
- Film grain
- A seed, and Space for another throw
- PNG or JPEG at up to twice the photo's size
How it works
How it works
A photo, a mask, the dials, the file.
Drop a photo
Any photo; 2500 to 4000 pixels across works best.
Add the mask
A cut-out PNG, or the subject in black or white. Check it with the mask button.
Move the dials
Figures, edge, flight and blur. Space throws another arrangement.
Save the picture
PNG or JPEG, drawn again at full size.

Anywhere a picture has to stop a scroll
Product shots, posters and covers.
Packaging and product shots
A box or a bottle coming apart into figures, for a launch or a sale.

A portrait rebuilt from digits, at print size.
Social posts
A picture that reads at a glance, made in a minute.

A title image that is not stock.
Anyone who runs Photoshop actions
The same kind of effect, without the wait or the brushes folder.
