Picture Lab
C4 on the major comb. Its drum rings at 244.7 Hz.
The Picture lab shows a page, a photo, a GIF or a video as Gaussian splats: thousands of small, flat, colored discs, the same stuff every splash here is made of.

Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 244.7 Hz, 116 cents flat of C4, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
The Picture lab shows a page, a photo, a GIF or a video as Gaussian splats: thousands of small, flat, colored discs, the same stuff every splash here is made of. A document's paper becomes a smooth sheet of large splats in the paper's own color, and every pixel of ink becomes one small splat of its own color, a hair in front. A photo gets one splat per pixel.
Double-tap the page to fill the screen with it; zoom in and it is rebuilt sharper. Open a PDF, a photo, a GIF or a video of your own in the Splash tab, or paste a web address. Your files stay on your device: nothing is uploaded. Sample picks a PDF or a photo.
Turn on Pop out with its button at the right of the stage and tap a picture to raise it off the page in 3D; tap it again to lay it back. Draw a box raises anything else, and Pop-up layers splits one into cutout cards. Drag a risen figure to tilt the view; the Depth slider adds relief.
