About DitheredImageReveal
About this Component
The Dithered Image Reveal applies a vintage-style digital dither to your images by default, giving them a textured, nostalgic look. On hover, the original image is revealed, creating a smooth, interactive effect. Inspired by classic print dithering and early computer graphics, it blends retro charm with modern interactivity for a uniquely tactile visual experience. Users can optionally invert the hover effect, starting with the original image and revealing the dither instead.
