Posterizer Sneak Preview

Posterizer is a little program that helps you make reduced-color versions of your images. You select a palette of colors and the program renders the picture using just those colors. This is nothing that can’t be done already with a capable image editor, but Posterizer makes it more straightforward.

Reduce, reuse, and recycle. Posterizer is based on a simplified version of an image classification demo I wrote in college, repackaged for the desktop instead of the web.

Coming soon for Mac OS X. It’s written in Tcl/Tk and standard C, so Linux and Windows versions are not inconceivable (but they won’t taste nearly as good).
