255.0. Everything else makes no sense and is actually dangerous when working with colors. Trust me. :) And when you go from float to 8bit you should dither to avoid banding. If in doubt, error diffusion with a random number between -0.5..=0.5 is fine. 0.5 here is dither_amplitude: round(255 * input_value + dither_amplitude * random(-1, 1)) See e.g. my dithereens crate: https://crates.io/crates/dithereens https://crates.io/crates/dithereens
