Free pixel art converter: turn photos into pixel art with block-size grid control, 8-bit palettes, 16-color sets, and grayscale. Runs in your browser—download PNG.
Tool powered by pppixelate on fffuel.co.
Draw pixel art to SVG on fffuel pppixelate: pixel templates, pixel shapes, 8-bit fonts, repeating patterns—embed the pixel art SVG maker.
Draw on a pixel grid: Pick a color and place pixels to build your base tile for pixel art to SVG export.
Live pattern preview: Watch the SVG pattern replicate as you draw—ideal for lo-fi and retro backgrounds.
Pixel template transforms: Adjust angle, scale, and translate X/Y so a pixel template tile repeats seamlessly.
SVG pattern element: One tile repeats across the canvas using native SVG patterns.
8-bit font and pixel shape styles: Draft 8-bit font glyphs, retro type characters, and simple pixel shape motifs for icons and UI accents.
Copy and save SVG markup: Clear the grid, then copy SVG from the publisher UI or save the file for code and design tools.
Open pppixelate
Use the iframe or open fffuel.co/pppixelate in a new tab if embed interactions are limited.
Draw your tile
Place pixels on the grid; aim for seamless edges if the pattern should tile cleanly.
Tune pattern settings
Set angle, scale, and translation so the repeat fits your layout.
Preview the repeat
Check the full pattern view before you export.
Copy or save SVG
Copy markup for inline use or save the file for Figma and dev handoff.
Start a new template
Clear the canvas when you need a fresh pixel template.
Match edge pixels
Align opposite edges so the SVG pattern tiles without visible seams.
Test scale early
Scale changes pixel size in the final repeat—preview at target scale.
Limit palette
A few colors keep retro patterns readable at small sizes.
Pair with color tools
Pick exact HEX values with related color utilities before continuing your pixel tile.
Typography and brand designers: Prototype 8-bit font tiles and retro lettering patterns.
Web and UI designers: Lo-fi backgrounds and pixel texture accents for sites and apps.
Game and indie makers: Nostalgic pixel shape sets without opening a full sprite editor.
Developers: Inline SVG patterns for lightweight decorative UI.
