tb slideTile 1.0.1

Divides input image up into tiles, and moves them around, either randomly, or based on the brightness of the pixel at the centre of each tile.

Creates a wide range of glitchy effects, from slider-puzzle to complete image randomisation.

tb photoboothLightTunnel

The Light-Tunnel effect from Apple's Photobooth application, with added 'tweakability'.

Detailed Info: 

Controls
Size
size of uneffected area
Flip
Flips effect so that 'light rays' go in to centre, rather than out from it
Part of a series of emulations of Photobooth effects adapted from code in Libero Spagnolina's tutorial at http://dem.ocracy.org/libero/photobooth/
I may integrate this into thresholdStretch at some point in the future.

tb slitScan 1.0

Implementation of the classic slit-scan effect.
A single line of the input image shows through a slit, and a feedback effect causes pixels to stream out of the centre-line towards the edge of the screen, giving the effect of movement over an infinite plain.
Much-used in the 'Stargate' sequence in the film 2001.

tb slitScan 1.0
Detailed Info: 

Controls:
Angle
Angle of effect
Axis
Vertical or Horizontal variations
Centre Adjust
Adjust position of effect centre-line
Feedback
Level of feedback. Lower levels cause effect to fade out as it moves further from centre-line
Flip
Flips effect up/down left/right around centre-line
Freeze Input
Creates freeze-frame of input.
Rate
Rate of travel of effect.
Scan
'Scans' image up/down left/right behind slit.
