Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as a Photoshop pixel filter?
It is AI-generated pixel art that reinterprets the photo, not a simple downscale.
Can I pixelate only part of an image?
This preset transforms the whole image. Use Image Cleanup for local edits afterward.
Best source images?
High-contrast subjects with clear shapes produce the most readable pixel results.
How do credits work?
