❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Which effect should I choose for my image?

Use Pixel Art for retro gaming style, Mosaic for artistic patterns, Color Blocks for abstract art, and Dot Matrix for technical/scientific aesthetics.

How does pixel size affect the result?

Smaller pixel sizes preserve more detail but less pixelated effect. Larger sizes create more dramatic pixelation but may lose fine details.

What does color reduction do?

Color reduction limits the number of colors used, creating more authentic retro looks. Lower values give classic 8-bit appearance, higher values preserve more color detail.

When should I use dithering?

Enable dithering when using heavy color reduction to create smoother gradients and reduce banding effects in the pixelized image.
