Classic silk screen, digitized
1. Upload your photo
Any JPG, PNG or WebP. The image is processed entirely in your browser —nothing uploaded to a server.
2. Halftone separation
The image is split into red, blue and grey channels. Each channel is converted to halftone dots at different screen angles —just like a real print shop.
3. Composite & export
Three channels multiply together on a paper-colored background. Adjust colors, angles and density until it looks right, then export PNG.
Not a filter —a printmaking technique
Real halftone dots
Not a pixelated blur —actual variable-size dots at proper screen angles, just like offset printing.
Ritual tri-color aesthetic
Red, blue, grey on warm paper —the iconic CD cover / poster / zine look. Change colors to match your vision.
Preview each channel
Toggle between composite, red-only, blue-only and grey-only to see how each separation layer contributes.
100% private
Your image never leaves your device. Everything runs in the browser —no server, no uploads, no tracking.
Get the best silk screen look
- High-contrast photos work best —portraits with strong lighting give the most dramatic halftone separation
- Lower LPI = bigger, more visible dots (punk poster vibe). Higher LPI = finer detail (offset print look)
- Screen angles matter —keep them 30°+ apart to avoid moiré patterns. Default 15/75/45 is a safe starting point
- Try warm paper —the default #f1e8d6 mimics newsprint. Switch to pure white for a cleaner look, or black for inverted style
- View single channels to understand how each color layer contributes —useful if you want to print actual separations
