How to use Pixelate an image and verify the result
Temporarily reduces the image to a small grid and enlarges it with nearest-neighbour interpolation to create visible blocks.
Temporarily reduces the image to a small grid and enlarges it with nearest-neighbour interpolation to create visible blocks. Block size is automatic and proportional to the image, so judge the result at its final scale.
Practical example: Create a retro look for a graphic or thumbnail. Post-process verification is part of the workflow: a successful download alone does not prove that the content is correct.
What result to expect
A copy with a uniform mosaic effect and dimensions close to the source.
