FAQ

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. This tool processes your images directly in your web browser. Your photos never leave your computer, ensuring complete privacy and security.

What's the difference between preset and custom palettes?

Preset palettes (like Game Boy) use fixed retro colors. 'Custom' analyzes your image to generate a palette from its dominant colors for a truer look.

What images work best?

Simple images with clear subjects and contrast work best. Very detailed photos may look too abstract when pixelated.
