How to generate a noisy gradient?

This noise gradient generator blends the colors of your choice and adds a grain texture to create a background. You can adjust the noise intensity and the number of colors in the gradient to create a variety of effects.

  1. Pick the number of colors you want in the gradient. You can pick between 2 and 10 colors.
  2. Just click on the "Randomize" button to generate a random gradient with the selected number of colors. You can also pick your own colors by clicking on the color boxes.
  3. You can optionally change the dimensions of the image.
  4. Once you are satisfied with gradient image in the preview, click the "Download PNG" button to download the image.

Fine-tune your noise gradient

Granularity changes the scale of the grain: lower values produce coarser texture, while higher values make it finer. Opacity controls its strength. Start with a low opacity for a subtle background and increase it for more visible grain.

For a slide background, start at 1920 × 1080 and check that your text remains easy to read. For square artwork, try 1080 × 1080. Exporting larger dimensions can take longer on mobile devices.
