Scanlines

i made a tool for creating gradient text! it's similar to this great site, but with a few additional features:

extract a color palette from an image

paste a string of hex codes to load the colors

AO3 export mode (it's a bit of a pain in the ass but it works)

you can configure how much contrast it will optimize for; the idea is to aim for colors that will be readable against dark or light backgrounds!
