Field notes
The map places sprites according to average color, with gray tones toward the center and hues around the perimeter; controls offer search, random selection, related images, and PNG downloads. The workshop says imported images are reduced to 16×16 and processed locally in the browser. The page separates the source dataset’s stated CC0 status from its own CC BY 4.0 arrangement and indexing, and warns that commercial use of the Krea-generated source material remains subject to Krea’s community license.
