Image Grain Generator

live

Add deterministic color noise and grain to an image. TypeKitty's image grain generator runs locally in your browser, so you can create repeatable texture overlays with opacity, scale, and seed controls.

Images & Assetsimage
image-js reads and writes the pixel data locally.

How to use Image Grain Generator

Apply local grain-style noise to image artwork. Check the result before copying or downloading it.

  1. Add your image

    01

    Enter or choose the image you want to process with this browser tool.

  2. Adjust the options

    02

    Review the available settings and choose the output that fits your task.

  3. Copy or download

    03

    Inspect the result, then copy or download it without creating an account.

Practical examples

Start with a real input, then adapt it to your task.

Example input

opacity 0.15 scale 1

The browser workflow processes opacity 0.15 scale 1 locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

Example input

seed 1612

The browser workflow processes seed 1612 locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

Example input

add noise to image

The browser workflow processes add noise to image locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

How this browser tool works

TypeKitty processes the data you enter in this browser tab. It is not sent to a TypeKitty tool API.

Current limitation

What to know before you start

Seeded grain makes results repeatable

Using the same source, seed, scale, and opacity produces a consistent texture instead of a new random pattern on every run. That makes it easier to match assets across a campaign or return to an earlier result after testing different export settings.

Grain changes compression behavior

Fine noise adds high-frequency detail that can increase JPEG or WebP file size and create compression artifacts. Apply only enough texture for the intended viewing size, then compare quality and output weight. PNG preserves pixels but may produce a much larger file.
