Hi,I'm written a program to apply filter to images or icons. Even when the program may get some more changes in the future it seems to be ready for use now.
Image Workshop Image Filter
You can play around with your own images or the demo images - there are hundreds of effects available.
After the first start, all preset values are switched to null - so a good start is to try out some default presets (Ctrl+P) after choosing a filter (Ctrl+F). The only help is a list of some shortcuts (F1), so hopefully you'll get around...
Some example filters:

Looks good! If you want, you can use my Binarizer algorithms for grey scaling and/or binarizing images. Can be found via search function.

Win 11 is reporting the Icon Workshop Image Filter.exe file contains the Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.FL.A!ml, very hard to download unless to make that file or downloads folder an exclusion. I know it is probably a false positive as it looks to be a common issue. Apparently the ml suffix in the trojan description means it was detected by a machine learning algorithm.

Hi Michael,
don't get me wrong, I don't want to rush you to anything, but I found out, my binarization code is hard to find:

Should have posted it in Tipps&Tricks...
It uses severyl standardized methods for greyscaling and binarization. Feel free to use it (or not) and modify it to your needs.

Hi,
binarization is tricky - added some additional code to the Filter App but be careful because (escpecially the Niblack method) is extremly slow. You'll find it under Filter / Black & White / Binarization Mode. Also created a new '
Halftone' filter - not as perfect as I wanted it but nice enough for some cases.
