      <p class="para_topic">This effect causes the image to be rendered as a series of irregular dots, or stipples. The effect is similar to how photographs are reproduced in newsprint, only more pronounced.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">By default, the stipples are all rendered in one color (black by default, but you can select the color of the 'ink'). You can also use the color of the underlying geometry for each stipple. If you select this option, the effect becomes reminiscent of the 'pointillism' school of impressionistic painting, where scenes were rendered by points of color or light.</p>
