  • Glad you like the tool

    for item 1 you should use source art - transparent PNGs at 16x16 and 32x32 and set the output size to those as well. That way it never has to scale and simply makes variations at that size.

    All your variations will be in the Output folder on saving or random generation.

    The included art won't scale well to very small sizes since the original sizes were pretty large 1024x1024 or 512x512. They were included mainly as examples.

    Though if you want to scale down from 512x512 to 32x32 or 16x16 it is best to make your source art in Photoshop/Gimp using a grid of 32x32 and make sure anything you draw fills up 32x32 (lines, boxes, etc). I noticed this scales down well when doing that.

    Hope this helps - Rigo
