I wrote a short article on scaling pixel art for beginners or for you to share with anyone who’s asked "Can I scale your pixel art?"

I changed my site from http://saint11.org to http://saint11.art. I'm trying to redirect traffic from the old one to the new one, I hope nothing breaks.

Every now and then I want to make a procedural image or PDF, like cards for game prototyping, grid papers, etc. Is there a good and modern library for drawing that? (Ideally c# but I'm up for anything with an easy setup)

Quick Aseprite tip that I'm not sure if I shared before, but pressing CTRL+B on a selection will quickly create a brush of that selection. Great for quickly making patterns. ESC will return your brush back to normal.

Another old tutorial! If you are learning pixel art this is a simple animation that's relatively straight forward to try out.
