PIXEL86 — Retro Dithering for Photos & Videos
Make your media look like it came from a cooler, glitchier timeline.
Bring back the charm of vintage tech with PIXEL86, the ultimate tool to transform your photos and videos into pixel-perfect black-and-white or limited-palette art. Inspired by early computer graphics, old-school printers, and classic GIFs — this is retro done right.
True B/W Dithering
No grays. Just black or white pixels smartly arranged to simulate shadows and depth — exactly how early screens did it.

Choose from curated vintage-inspired palettes
Hit random for a fresh surprise every time

Three Dithering Styles
Natural — Smooth, classic error diffusion. Clean and expressive.
Pattern — Retro dot-matrix vibes. Adjustable matrix for custom textures.
Flat — Not technically dithering, but perfect for dramatic, posterized effects in both stills and motion.
