I have a (potentially stupid) question for my fellow pixel artists! When you make merch… are you resizing to the exact size the merch is to retain the crisp pixels? Or do you make it larger? I’m having trouble finding info on this specifically for pixel art 👉🏻👈🏻

I've been seeing a lot of pixel artists struggle with Bluesky's image compression, so I'd thought I'd share how to get clear, crisp pixels on the site! Share to help a fellow pixel-artist!
When uploading to Bluesky, remember to resize your works to 800%! Why? Images are converted to .jpeg when uploaded. .jpeg compresses the image into 8x8 pixel blocks. If a block has more than one colour, that dreaded compression occurs!
