Meme · crushed JPEG

A deep-fried meme has been saved, shared, cranked and saved again until it's crunchy. Deep-fry gives your picture that look on purpose, with blown color, harsh sharpening and heavy JPEG crunch.

## Controls

### Fry

- **Fry** (hero knob, 0 to 100, rests at 60). The hero. Color and contrast blown out, and the tones crushed into fewer steps.
- **Heat** (Knob, 0 to 100, rests at 40). Pushes the picture toward the burnt orange cast fried memes get.
- **Sharpen** (Knob, 0 to 100, rests at 50). Oversharpens every edge until it rings.

### Crush

- **JPEG crush** (Knob, 0 to 100, rests at 55). The compression crunch. The picture breaks into small blocks, colors smear across bigger ones.
- **Noise** (Knob, 0 to 100, rests at 35). Colored speckle that crawls frame to frame.
- **Bulge** (Knob, 0 to 100, rests at 0). The middle swells outward, like the bulging-eyes edit.

## Presets

- **Deep Fried**: Crushed JPEG, blown color, sharpened to a crisp.
