Deep fried image maker
Use a harsher preset stack for the deep fried look: lower quality, smaller dimensions, and a preview loop that helps you keep the joke readable.
Drag the slider to adjust image quality.
People do not only search for low quality images in general. Many search specifically for the deep fried meme look, so this landing page speaks directly to that use case.
The deep fried preset drops export quality and scale aggressively. It gives you a strong first pass, then you can recover a little detail if the image collapses too far.
Start from a clean image, keep one focal point readable, and export once the preview looks bad in a funny way rather than just unreadable.
Quick tips
JPEG usually produces the most familiar deep fried artifacts.
If the image breaks too fast, raise quality before you raise scale.
Run the exported image through the tool a second time if you want a heavier reposted look.
