Primary LanguagePython

photoglitcher

browses www.reddit.com/r/wallpaper+wallpapers for pictures, makes multiple copies, inserts random data into photo to glitch it.

most results aren't very good. photos seem to break depending on their format. png seems best, jpg is second best. inspired by http://magazine.art21.org/2011/09/20/how-to-use-python-to-create-a-simple-flickr-photo-glitcher/ after it refused to work.

best results of thousands: (uploading these actually changed them - some for the better)
