Small update, I am porting back functionality from our internal code, now you can already blur images with Zignal. The demo has been updated accordingly

It supports box-blur because it’s really fast because it computes the [integral image](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summed-area_table). It works on grayscale images with SIMD and Color images (with any kind of pixel type).

It’s an updated version of what I had here [@floatToInt, @intToFloat gone - #29 by adria](https://ziggit.dev/t/floattoint-inttofloat-gone/914/29)

But the thing I am most excited about is the new logo/mascot for the library.

I called her Liza:

- it sounds feminine like the venerable [Lenna - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenna)
- it has a Z, so it feels Ziggy
- it’s a substring of lizard 🤯
