Choose a supported image to compare the original and converted result.
Image placement
Fit with transparent padding
Preserves the complete image, centers it without distortion, and leaves every unused edge pixel transparent.
Conversion uses fixed scaling, palette, and dithering rules. The same image and settings produce the same pixels.

No. Decoding, resizing, palette mapping, dithering, previewing, and export all run locally in your browser. No upload or sign-up is required.
The PNG uses the exact native canvas dimensions you choose: 16×16, 32×32, 64×64, or a valid custom width and height. The preview may appear larger only to make individual pixels easy to inspect.
The complete image is scaled proportionally to fit inside the target canvas and centered. Any unused canvas area remains transparent; the source is never cropped to fill.
A palette maps every visible pixel to its nearest available color using fixed rules. Ordered and Floyd–Steinberg dithering distribute mapping error differently; identical inputs and settings always produce the same result.
