Photoshock is in closed beta for a small group of selected users. Access is $49 one-time on Gumroad — a perpetual license that funds development toward the public release. Loading the checkout may take a moment.
After payment, Gumroad redirects back with
?photoshock_contributor=1
and your license activates automatically — this dialog stays hidden afterwards.
Renders the current view at the size you choose. Opaque uses the menu BG color; transparent PNG uses alpha behind the splats.
