Methods & limits
Random is the start. You decide the last pixel.
Geometry rules draw the face, hair, features, and clothes, then choose a high-contrast palette. No avatar library or protected character art is sampled, and every result remains editable.
Export uses nearest-neighbor scaling from 16×16 with no smoothing. Use 128 px for chat avatars; 512 or 1024 px for sharing and further editing.
Pixel rule: 16 × 16 = 256 color cells. Export enlarges by whole-number scaling and adds no blurred pixels.
FAQ
Random pixel avatar · FAQ
Can I use the avatar commercially?
The site generates shapes from rules without third-party character assets. You may use your export, but remain responsible for any logos or protected characters you draw into it.
Why does it stay sharp when enlarged?
Nearest-neighbor scaling copies each source cell into a larger block without mixing adjacent colors.
Does the site save my avatar?
No. Canvas state and PNG export stay in this browser; the site cannot restore a work after refresh.
