{ths} CopyShop
{ths} CopyShop is a macOS app that simulates an old photocopier. Drop in an image, press COPY, and watch it come back through a machine that has seen better days. Toner grain, roller streaks, a wobbling drum, scratched glass, halftone screens, dot gain, color channels that never quite line up, and a cartridge that actually runs out.
- Two machines in one: Black & white or full colour
- Copy of copy: Generation loss you can stack – Each pass thickens the ink, chews the edges and darkens the grain
- Toner: A cartridge that runs dry
- Every machine is its own machine: Scratches on the glass, flecks, feed lines and print-unit stripes
- Loupe: Magnifier over the output tray
- Seven controls, all physical: Contrast, Toner Grain, Roller Streaks, Drum Wobble, Glass Scratches, Halftone/Dither, Skew & Sharpness. Plus vignette and lid shadow.
Also, see my website www.ths.nu for detailed information about the app.
