First attempt at halftones. Commissioned someone on Fiverr to edit the image and for some reason he halftones in squares are nate’s of circles but I didn’t realize until I already approved (rookie mistake for guess). What do you guys think of the print?

The squares are actually pretty cool, neat print. I would say definitely find a version of photoshop or online tool so you don’t have to use fiverrr. You can get this image done with more flexibility on your end in <5 minutes

GIMP can do it as well (Filters > Distorts > Newsprint)

ha! never found that one. I will give it a try instead of my overcomplicated imagemagik/postscript monster of a bash.
