Remain as still as possible for the scanner to take the photo (this project needs access to your camera). This takes about 26 seconds Once the photo is taken, you can apply the whirl or fisheye effects anywhere on the picture. The magnitude of the effect can also be changed
This is made for the Scratch Design Studio (SDS) - Nifty Effects Thanks to @griffpatch for the image scanner, and to @BigNate469 for the help on finding the right file (as explained below). The whirl effect in this project should match exactly the whirl effect created in Scratch using the looks block. It is essentially a port of the algorithm from Scratch source code publicly available on GitHub: https://github.com/scratchfoundation/scratch-render/blob/develop/src/EffectTransform.js The fisheye effect is also carried out using Scratch's alogrithm. Unfortunately, it appears that the variable "u_fisheye" in the code is actually an adjusted version of the effect value number used in the looks block, which I had to work out by experimenting with the values. This might have a lot of potential (e.g. multiple "whirls" or "fisheyes" on the same picture, whirls of any elliptical shape, etc.) From this, it should also be quite easy to recreate the other effects on Scratch.
