libpixels-java is:

A large number of Java Image filters which are all standard Java BufferedImageOps and can be plugged directly into existing programs.

Many of these filters are useful in applications such as games where images need to be generated on the fly, or where it’s quicker to generate them rather than downloading them. For instance, it’s quicker to download one image and rotate it several times than to download several separate images.

Another use for the filters is in animation. For example animating the Water Ripple filter can produce a nice rippling effect. Some of the filters have a time parameter for this purpose.

All of the filters are designed to work with TYPE_INT_ARGB images.
