Description
Suited to turning ordinary scenes into a quiet moment in a retro game world. The upper half is the original photo; the lower half reduces information while preserving its spirit and silhouette. The subject may be off-center, farther away, or cropped. The sky, mist, water, or blank space carries the mood. Colors from the original image shift to misty blue, pale cyan, mint green, creamy yellow, warm beige, and soft pink. Clear and warm—not gray, dirty, or highly saturated. Avoid ordinary pixel filters and fully packed scenes.

ImageGPT2 x Mint Pixel Cuisine
Ideal for turning photos into light, sweet, quiet pixel art cards: culinary nostalgia, independent stationery, and exhibition vignettes. The upper half preserves the recognizable original image; the lower half reduces the subject to a single central pixel symbol on a pale ceramic plate. A soft white halo, mint-green lace, and tiny floral dots surround it. Cookware in the distance should nearly fade into white. Only the center has clear blocky pixel edges; everything else is mist, bloom, and an almost overexposed pale background. Use mint green, ivory, and cream as the base, with bright orange, coral, golden yellow, or pink appearing only as accents at the center. Avoid dark backgrounds, strong outlines, complex details, and gray, dirty-looking filters.
ImageSoft Blur xiaoxiaodong
Ideal for reducing an ordinary photo to a soft, distanced visual symbol. The original image appears in the upper half; below, the subject becomes an organic abstract outline made from translucent layers, soft-focus diffusion, and a few pixel fragments. The symbol is complete, centered, and modest in scale, with clean space around it and only a tiny, precise sans-serif caption beside it. The palette uses low-contrast milky white, nude pink, misty pink, gray-green, pale olive, and light blue—like colors filtered through soft light. Avoid literal object rendering, complete scenes, commercial illustration, neon, strong gradients, and cartoon styles.
ImageMemory | xiaoxiaodong P245
Ideal for turning an ordinary photo into a standalone picture-book page or a page from a travel journal: personal photo curation, exhibition practice, and lifestyle visuals. The top half preserves a recognizable version of the original photo; the bottom half does not restate the entire image, but distills only its most identifiable contours and relationships into a quiet, slightly naive form of modern folk art. The subject is small, can be off-center or cropped, and is surrounded by plenty of white space. The lines are loose and imperfect, with slight pauses and corrections. Colors are drawn from the most vibrant tones in the original image and refined into a limited palette such as cream white, deep teal, misty blue, butter yellow, and plant green. Avoid filling the frame, polished vectors, a plastic look, fluorescent colors, and commercial illustration.
