Description
ImageGlitch is a way to digitally destroy images to create new works of art from your photographs or graphic designs created on the computer.
Note: For best results, use JPEG or TIFF. Other file formats are hard to work with or may completely corrupt the image. Be sure to always make backups of your images with any app that makes changes to your photos.
How to use:
It's easy, just start removing some lines from the textfield on the left. You can add lines from external sources, remove lines, change lines, but read below for a few tips.
- Command + Z (undo) is your friend. You will often see your entire image disappear, just Command + Z back to where you were.
- The first 50 lines (give or take) are usually full of meta information, so editing these lines will usually result in no or little change to the image.
- The text correlates to the image, towards the top you will change the top part of the image. If you change text towards the bottom, you will affect the bottom part of the image.

Ratings and Reviews
Neat
It's an interesting program.
Basically, it opens an image in a text editor. (which means it's just gibberish gobeldygook.)
And then shows you a preview of the image on the other side.
As you manually delete lines of the text, it will distort the image.
No different from if you opened the picture in a text editor and removed lines on your own, except with ImageGlitch, you get instant visual feedback. Which is cool.
Not sure of the practical use for being able to do this, but it's neat to experiment I guess..
However, since you do have to edit things manually, it'd be cool to have a feature to randomly distort the image (randomly remove lines in the code, maybe a slider to pick how 'drastic' the removal is).
That's my only suggestion to really make this cool.
The best tool for creating real glitch art
I've been using ImageGlitch for years and highly recommend it. It provides a text editor on the left and the real time version of the image on the right, so you can see how the changes you make effect the image in real time.
Dumb.
So all it does is takes out chunks of your pictures in forms of lines. Of course, I thought perhaps I'm not doing it correctly,..so of course I accessed their help section and…big surprise…a box appears and says "Help isn't available for ImageGlitch" You just got a hard-earned dollar of mine. Spend it wisely.
