Sure it will help me in some cases although I do not use it too much, it seems too exploited !.

I mean this mode of dithering

Oh wow it’s WONDERFUL!! Better than I could have ever dreamed, and I’ve been waiting 2 years for it!! 😃😃  
This is a 10 second test, but it just proves how dither can make even the most banal of beaches look like classy atari-style art! 😲 😮

That looks great!! 😌 I think gradients will be a great new tool for inspiration too, mainly because all the ways to combine different gradients with dithering.

Not at the moment, but you can use the [bayer matrices extension](https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/tree/master/data/extensions/bayer-matrices) as an example (then create a zip with your own package content and add it from _Edit \> Preferences \> Extensions \> Add Extension_).

I have shared an experimental extension with other matrices [in this discussion](https://community.aseprite.org/t/how-to-increase-square-size-on-dither-gradient-tool/90/2).
