# pixelfloot
an very simple and dirty pixelflut client to draw images.
pixelfloot was built during the 37c3. in its actual state, its just a mess. I hope i will find time to put it in a more usable and readable format.
## image format
you need an uncompress ppm image at first. it is not allowed to be larger then 200px.
convert it like so: `convert lol.jpg -compress none -resize 200x200 lol.ppm`
after you have converted it to ppm, you need to convert it to a "pixel-list".
do it with `./pixelfloot_bash.sh convertimg lol`
Have a look to the example .pixlist files
## examples
Display image: `./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot lol`
image random position: `SHUFMODE=chaos ./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot lol`
image shake position: `SHUFMODE=shake ./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot lol`
move image with your cursor (needs `xdotool`): `SHUFMODE=cursor ./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot lol`
Use a color as "alpha" (remove background): `./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot lol FF00FF`
Use the cursor image as cursor `SHUFMODE=cursor ./pixelfloot_bash.sh floot cursor FF00FF`
