To blur.. or not to blur
Added 2022-02-01 21:39:08 +0000 UTCHi all! So I am testing out some new features released in the map tool that I use and one of them includes a new "blur" filter. I have personally never been a big fan of blur as it hurts my eyes when looking at it, but I've also heard others say they prefer the blur for 2nd stories and above to give a greater sense of height.
So I figured I would ask my amazing community here! While the new blur tool is handy, I do have to do some behind the scenes set up work with each map to get it to only blur the parts of the map I want, so it does add to the production time. Your responses will help me gauge whether this is a good use of my time because if not, I can use that time to work on other maps. Make sure to get your voices heard and let me know what you think below! Here is one the map that I tested it with:

I like blur, but also think if the place has no windows there's no need to do blur.
