Image to Emoji Converter

🖼️ 1. Upload Your Image

• Click the “Upload Image” button.

• Choose a photo (JPG, PNG, etc.).

• A preview will appear below.

⚙️ 2. Set Output Size

This controls how detailed the emoji art will be:

• Width and Height = number of emoji tiles across and down.

• Example:

  • 80×80 = more detail (but more emojis).

  • 40×40 = simpler, faster to process.

🟡 Tip: Keep sizes between 40 and 100 for best results.

🎨 3. Color vs Grayscale Mode

• Grayscale: Uses classic characters like ░ ▒ ▓ █ to make art that looks like old-school ASCII.

• Color: Uses colorful emojis like 🔴 🟢 💛 to resemble the actual image colors.

🟩 Enable Grayscale Mode = black & white emoji art
🟥 Disable Grayscale Mode = color emoji art

🧱 4. Custom Emoji Palette (Color Mode Only)

What is it?

The tool picks emojis that best match your image’s pixel colors using a list of emojis and their associated RGB colors.

Example:

• 🔵 (blue) is tied to RGB: (0, 0, 255)

• 🟡 (yellow) is tied to RGB: (255, 255, 0)

The tool finds the closest match for each pixel in your image.

➕ 5. Add Custom Emojis

You can add your own emoji with a color, and the tool will use it when matching pixel colors.

How to add:

• Type an emoji (e.g., 🧊)

• Pick its dominant color using the color picker (🟦 = pick a blue)

• Click “Add Emoji”

🧠 The tool uses that emoji for pixels closest to the color you picked!

🗑️ 6. Reset Emoji Palette

• Click “Reset to Default Emojis” if things get messy.

• This reloads the original list of emojis.

▶️ 7. Convert Image

Click “Convert Image” to process and display the emoji art.

🌀 You’ll see a spinner while the tool processes the image.

📋 8. Copy or Download Emoji Art

• Copy Emojis: Copies art to clipboard to paste anywhere.
