What is the difference between synthwave, vaporwave and cyberpunk?
Synthwave revisits the 1980s imagination: a setting sun cut into stripes, a neon grid racing to the horizon, orange, magenta and purple gradients. Vaporwave is its dreamy, ironic take, with pink, cyan and lavender pastels, geometric shapes and halftones. Cyberpunk is darker: night, neon, screens going haywire, glitch and chromatic aberration. Neongood’s recipes are sorted into these families, plus a digital abstract art family.
How do the layers work?
Each recipe is a stack of layers, from the background to the foreground. An “Add” layer (sun, grid, glow, shapes, particles…) sits on top of what is below; a “Filter” layer (aberration, glitch, pixels, halftone, wave, bloom…) transforms everything below. Each layer can be switched on or off, moved and duplicated, and has its own opacity, blend mode and settings.
Do I need a photo?
No. With the “No photo” source, the image is fully generated. With a photo, it takes its place in the stack: changing the image keeps all your settings.
Is the SVG made of vectors?
Yes for the drawn elements: sun, grid, mountains, glows, geometry, particles and shapes stay real, editable paths. Whatever sits under a filter (glitch, aberration, pixels…) is embedded as an image; the “As many vectors as possible” option leaves the filters out to keep as many vectors as possible.
Are my photos sent over the Internet?
No, all the computing happens in your browser.
