Frequently Asked Questions

Upload your photo and the LEGO art generator pixelates it into squares, snaps each to a classic brick color, and adds a raised stud to every block. Adjust the brick size in the live preview, then download your brick mosaic.

usage

Bold, high-contrast photos with clear subjects — close-up portraits, logos, and simple scenes — make the most recognizable brick mosaics. Smaller bricks keep more detail while larger bricks give a chunky look.

tips

Yes. The studded grid maps to a brick layout, so you can use the result as inspiration or a rough reference for a real brick build, a poster, or a custom gift.

features

It is free with no signup and no watermark, and photos are deleted automatically after processing. This is an unaffiliated, brick-style art effect; LEGO is a trademark of its respective owner.

privacy

Yes — switch to Batch mode, a Premium feature, to queue several photos, apply the same brick-size setting to all of them, and download one ZIP instead of converting each image individually. Single-image conversion stays free and unlimited.

pricing

Yes — after converting, the Build guide + parts list card lets you download a Pattern PDF (a printable, color-keyed grid mapping every studded square to its brick color) and a BrickLink parts list (.xml) that tallies exactly how many bricks of each color your mosaic needs. Both exports are Premium, and the grid is capped at 48 studs across so the pattern stays a buildable, baseplate-friendly size.

features

Download the BrickLink parts list export (Premium) from the result screen — it's an .xml wanted list sized to your specific converted image that you can import directly into BrickLink to price and order the nearest standard LEGO colors. Pair it with the Pattern PDF build guide so you know exactly where each brick goes once they arrive.

tips

Yes — Pixoate supports batch and bulk processing. Switch to Batch mode, add up to 100 photos, set your options once, and every photo is processed with the same settings before you download a single ZIP. Bulk processing is a Premium feature; the output uses the same quality and settings as single mode.

features

Yes — with bulk processing you configure the settings a single time and they apply to every item in the batch, up to 100 photos. There is no need to repeat the setup per item, and Temporary uploaded and generated files are processed securely and deleted automatically.
