Threshold dotted map and 3D globe look

Threshold puts every dot in one of two states, on or off, based on a luminance cutoff, then adds a fine paper grain across the field so the flat areas don't look digital. The result is a stark print look, closer to a screen-printed black-and-white poster than to a photo. Magazines use this look when an image sits next to heavy type. The threshold control shifts the cutoff (lower values keep more of the field on, higher values give sparser, more graphic images). Use the flat view for newsprint-style spreads or the globe view for stark cover artwork.
