Hello Friends,
How's everyone going? Last time I send out emails to you all is over a year. I was busying with freelance work. And now I finally have the motivation again to create some free learning resources.
I mentioned that it's very time consuming doing video editing, so I was once thought that doing tutorial is not what I can stand for. But that's before the AI era.
AI is so good right now, that once to be very advanced feature, now is so available even in beginner-friendly app.
Any way, I just wanna announce that I am back, and with some tips and tricks of our favorite design tool - Figma.
Here we go!
Create dithering effect in Figma
Most backgrounds feel flat. Here’s a fun way to make yours stand out using dithering effects in Figma.
Video Tutorial is linked blow.
1/ Use the Lummi plugin to find a background image you like. Drop it in your layout — we’ll add texture next.
2/ Open up the Dither plugin (or vga Dithercore for color).Play around with the settings.
Duplicate original image before you use Dither plugin, it will be replaced by default.
If using vga plugin, export in 960px for better resolution.
3/ Want to add color? Overlay a layer on top. Play around with different blend modes (Try Color Burn or Plus Darker ), and opacity to soften the effect.
4/ In short, vga gives you colorful textures. Dither gives crisp black & white patterns.
