Why does my pixel art commission look blurry?Pixel art often looks blurry in file viewers or browsers- try opening the file in an art program. If it still looks blurry let me know!Can you make an upscaled version of my commission?I deliver all pixel art commissions in their original size, but if you want a bigger version, feel free to ask. If you have an art program, it's very easy to do yourself- to keep pixel art looking sharp, resize it at full percentages like 200% or 300% (not 150% or 230% for example) and use nearest-neighbor or hard edges mode.
