What Y2K Chrome does

Transform a user-uploaded photo into a metalheart graphic, inspired by 1999 design aesthetics and early raytracing techniques.

Y2K Chrome is listed under Photo Effects. It returns a finished still image on this page. Upload your photo.

Use it when you want a new treatment of a photo you already have, without reshooting the scene. The preview above is an example of the finished look, not a photo of your file.

How to use Y2K Chrome

1. Open Y2K Chrome and watch the preview so you know the framing you are aiming for.
2. Upload your photo. Keep the subject large, sharp, and close to the framing in the preview.
3. Press Generate. Stay on this page; the image appears in the player when it is ready.
4. Open the image, then save it if you want to post it or send it on.

What you get

Y2K Chrome ends as a still image you can open on this page. Your upload supplies the subject. The effect supplies the styling described above.

Tips for a better Y2K Chrome

• Use the clearest file you have. Soft focus, tiny subjects, and heavy filters give the effect less to work with.
• Match the preview: if the sample is a close-up, crop in; if it is a wide scene, keep the surroundings.
• Compare your file with the preview on this page before you generate. Y2K Chrome follows that framing and that mood.
