Dither

Ordered dithering of the layers below (duotone or reduced color)

Dithering is a trick from the days when screens could only show a handful of colors. Instead of a smooth gradient, you scatter tiny dots in a fixed, ordered pattern and let the eye blend them into shades that aren’t really there. It’s the gritty texture of old games, fax machines and newspaper print — here it turns soft color into crisp, tactile grain.
