Inspiration

my inspiration was the amount of One Piece I have been watching lately.

What it does

The program takes user input of a jpg, adds a color filter, resizes the image to our background poster image, and creates a random crime and bounty price.

How I built it

I used Python to build the majority of the code, using the libraries Pillows, random, os, and Flask then used HTML for the front end creating a small interface for users to upload images.

Challenges I ran into

I ran into many challenges being a solo dev and this was my first hackathon, the first thing I ran into was learning pillows and image manipulation in Python, never working with that library before set me back massively. Another issue was setting up the HTML and understanding how to get user data from an uploaded image, this issue took me the longest taking around 3 hours to figure out. The main and final challenge that still exists is the program sometimes just doesn't work if the image isn't 256x256.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Getting this done, I came to this hackathon not confident I could get anything finished or even started. I ended up finishing an enjoyable project and having a great time learning and talking with others.

What I learned

I learned a lot of Python libraries and expanded my knowledge of Python itself, I learned how to code under time constraints other than a set assignment.
