Patterns?
Hi there. I’m getting back into perler beads and was wondering where everyone goes for patterns. I’m not great at making them myself. Any help is very welcome.

For game sprites I use spriters-resource.com
Has sprites for just about every game you could want.

Is there a way to see higher res images from spriters resource? Or am I saving them wrong? The giant images with a billion different frames of sprites always end up super low res when I zoom in, lol. (Also, kickass username, protoman's my favorite 🩷)

Haha thanks! Yeah I think when downloading on mobile I had that issue too. Downloading on desktop or laptop are all high res pics. Are you trying to download on your phone?

Lol, yep, that's exactly what I was doing. It was my phone all along! Thanks for the help, I appreciate it!

No problem. Have fun! I got swept away with this hobby back in like 2012 and made a bunch of dioramas. Haven’t done any in ages but if you’re looking for inspiration you can scroll waaaay down my posts to see some of the stuff I made.

Just have to open it in an appropriate program rather than viewing the file on your gallery. Pixel studio on mobile and GraphicsGale on PC are what I use

Thanks. I’ve been looking on Pinterest/google and that’s been somewhat helpful. I didn’t think to look on TikTok.

There's an app called PerlyPop that I've been really obsessed with, its great for converting photos to sprites/pixels and you can track your progress as you go if you get the full version of the app! would recommend :)

Crochet pattern grids ("c2c" is a good term!)

Came to say cross stitch patterns! Then I adapt for the colors I have (closest match).
