Hi Pixel Pushers!
This build features a new "Pixelizer" module along with a bunchton of fixes, updates, and overall improvements.
The Pixelizer module was designed to make icons, portraits, thumbnails and other content from your existing images. This module provides a simple and 'visual hands-on' approach to converting images into a pixel [mosaic] style.
You can crop and stretch your source material as you pixelize and the process will count up to 128 colors. The top 16 most used colors are displayed.

There are a few new modules already planned in addition to a full color, multi-layer, image editor. Stay tuned and provide any feedback if you have passionate opinions about art applications ☮
