Related Pattern Tools
How kaleidoscope patterns are created
The Kaleidoscope tool uses repeated rotated sections of the uploaded image around its center to produce a radial pattern. Changing the segment setting changes the number of repeated sections and therefore the structure of the resulting design. The finished pattern is exported as JPEG.
Browser-based image processing
The visual transformation is performed with browser canvas processing. The uploaded image is drawn to a canvas and the selected effect is applied before the result is prepared for download.
JPEG output
The processed canvas is encoded as a JPEG for download. The downloaded file is JPEG encoded, so its compression characteristics can differ from those of the original uploaded image.
Choosing an image for this effect
JPG, PNG, and WebP images are supported by the upload control. The appearance of the effect depends on the colors, contrast, details, and composition of the source image. Try different settings when available to find a result that suits the image.
What happens to image dimensions?
The processing canvas uses the loaded image width and height. The effect changes the visual pixel content rather than acting as an image resizing tool.
Tips for better effect results
- Start with a clear source image at a useful resolution.
- Use the available control gradually instead of assuming the maximum setting will look best.
- Compare the processed preview with the source before downloading.
- Remember that the final downloaded file is JPEG output.
