03/04/2002: New pixellate version with minor speed improvements.
A simple pixellate filter, a stepping stone to my forthcoming halftone filter but potentially useful in its own right.
The pixellation algorithm is very simple, it takes the median of the hue/saturation over each square and the mean of the luminescence. This produces a nicely graduated luminescence: taking the mean of the hue is prone to error since adjacent hue indices can be radically different colours.
