How to Pixelate Images & Photos
Pixelation is a technique used to obscure faces, passwords, credit card numbers, or sensitive content in images. It is also used by digital artists to transform high-res photography into 8-bit retro gaming pixel art.
1. Censor Sensitive Content & Privacy
Before sharing screenshots on social media, pixelate confidential elements like license plates, phone numbers, or email addresses.
2. 8-Bit Retro Pixel Art Style
Increase the pixel block size slider to 32px or 64px to create retro video game aesthetic avatars or game sprites.
