Palette

The converter draws the image to a small canvas, optionally maps colors to a limited palette, then scales the result with image smoothing disabled.

This creates a pixel-style PNG for design drafts, avatars, stickers and game mockups without sending the source image to a server.

The download is a PNG image.
The original palette keeps source colors; limited palettes deliberately reduce colors.
Animated images are rendered as one still frame.

Upload a square portrait, try pixel size 8 or 12, and compare Original with PICO-8 palette.
Use a smaller source image first when preparing tiny icons or avatars.
