Image Grain Editor

This tool applies film-like grain or texture to raster images to create cinematic or vintage aesthetics. It accepts a photo, a selected grain type, and adjustable strength and size to control texture. The pipeline is non-destructive, producing a new image that can be used for web or print.
Conceptually, grain is generated as a texture map and blended with the source image using a controlled blend factor. Different distributions (film-like, digital noise, or coarse texture) yield distinct looks. The system preserves edges and color while applying texture within luminance or per-channel channels depending on settings.
Beneficiaries include photographers, designers, marketers, and content teams seeking consistent texture across a batch or wanting to simulate film stock without complex editing. Unique value lies in color-aware grain, fast previews, and straightforward export options suitable for professional workflows.
