Image Pixelator
Drop in an image and download a pixelated version. The image is divided into a grid of square blocks; each block is filled with the average color of its source pixels. Useful for retro game art, censoring faces or text, or stylized thumbnails. Bigger block sizes give chunkier results. Output format matches the input where possible, defaulting to PNG. Conversion runs locally in your browser — files never leave your device.
