No worries! So, noise adds texture, reduces banding, hides artifacts, and gives images a vintage or organic feel.

It’s a small touch, but it can make images look more natural and visually appealing!

It can also massively increase the file size of the image, sometimes that can be relevant.

You're right! Adding noise can significantly increase file size, especially with high-intensity effects. However, I'm actively working on optimizing the output to reduce file size while maintaining quality.
