CRT gallery

Pixel arts from artists around the web × Python script I wrote.

Most of them belong to this artist, make sure to check out their amazing work.

Disclaimer

Google Sites allowed me to quickly create the environment I want you, the Viewer to have for the best possible experience.
It doesn't come without compromises unfortunately. One thing I am completely unable to control here are image dimensions.
All pixel arts, CRT-ified or not, are best experienced in very specific proportions and under special care to avoid compression.

Neither is achieveable here. Some pictures may take it better than others (CRT simulation increases fault resistance too).

CRT effect applied to a 280x320 video from Gameloft's Asphalt 3 with additional postprocessing.
