Quick answers for Pixelate Image

Can I pixelate just a face or a selected area?
No. This tool pixelates the whole image. It averages colors in square blocks with alpha weighting and keeps each source pixel’s alpha. It doesn’t offer region selection or guarantee that identifying details will be hidden.
How does Block size work?
Upload an image or choose Examples, then move Block size from 1 to 64 pixels. The preview updates automatically from the original image. A size of 1 leaves the pixels unchanged; larger blocks give a coarser result.
What files and download formats are supported?
Upload PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF or SVG up to 20 MiB, 8192 pixels per side and 16 megapixels. JPEG downloads use JPEG at 90% quality; other inputs download as PNG. Transparency and dimensions are preserved. GIF uses its first frame, and SVG is rasterized.
How do I save or reset the result?
Download current image saves the encoded preview. It’s disabled while a new preview is processing. Clear removes the image and cancels pending work. File sizes are shown in exact bytes; the result may be larger than the source.
