Image exports re-encode pixels; Base64 encode/decode preserves original bytes. BMP 1/4/8/16-bit and GIF reduce colors. BMP 4/8-bit palettes use up to 8/128 colors. JPEG fills transparency.

IMAGE WORKSPACE

Understand the task

A pixel effect changes neighboring colors or maps brightness to a new pattern. Blur averages detail, sharpening increases local contrast, and Floyd–Steinberg dithering distributes black-and-white error to nearby pixels. Choose the effect that fits the intended output rather than stacking unrelated filters.

How to use

  1. Choose the operation that matches your task. Import a file, try the example, or enter text for generation and Base64 decoding.
  2. Adjust the visible settings and create a preview. The original remains available. Changing settings disables the old download until you run again.
  3. Inspect the result, details and dimensions. Copy text when available or download the file. Use the alternate download for PNG, extracted frames or a second representation.

Limits and common errors

Blur and pixelation are visual effects, not reliable removal of confidential information. Use a fully opaque solid rectangle for sensitive regions and check the downloaded file. A region can retain its original alpha outside the selection.
