Can I choose the palette?

Not yet. The three variations use different palettes and background colours, so you pick the one you like.

Does pixel art still look like my pet?

Yes, at the level a sprite can: breed, coat colours, markings and eye colour are kept, and every result is checked against your photo.

Pixel art pet portrait

Retro and playful. Your pet redrawn on a chunky 16-bit grid with hard stair-step edges, a limited palette of flat colours, ordered dithering for shading and a simple flat background.

The look

What a pixel art portrait does with your photo

On the canvas

Clearly visible square pixels with jagged edges
About 24 flat colours, no gradients
Dithered shading in the classic console style
Eyes, nose and markings as readable pixel clusters

Best for

Gaming rooms, kids' rooms and anyone who grew up with a console. Pets with bold markings translate best into pixels.

Printing it

Matte paper and a simple black or white frame. Pixels are meant to be crisp, so the file is delivered with hard edges at any size; do not let a print service apply smoothing.

Every file is cropped to the frame size you choose, from 20 × 30 cm to 50 × 70 cm, and delivered at 2048 px on the long edge.

FAQ

Questions about the pixel art style

No. The file keeps hard pixel edges at full print resolution, so a 50 × 70 cm print shows crisp squares, not a blurred photo.

Print sizes are where the file stays sharp at arm’s length. Larger frames work too, they just look softer up close. Printed and framed delivery is on the way; for now you print with the shop or service you trust.
