Code Image Filters


Programming for graphics has to be the coolest thing about programming in my mind. For years I made an really cool image app called Image Blender, witch uses some really cool image filters, that I programmed.

However that app was not programed with Xojo when I first started it and updated it for the first 6 years since I first released it. When I considered convert the code base over to Xojo, I found RGBSurface and it did basic the same method as the previous programming language I used.

With Xojo there many 3rd party plugins & declares one can use. That can access pre-made imaging methods like Core Image on OSX. However with RGBSurface you can support cross-platform every platform Xojo supports from one code base. If your like me and have an need for Linux builds to have the same stuff Mac and Windows, then RGBSurface is the way to go. Here is an little video walking over how to do it with an few different image filters.
