News

• August 1, 2018: add Shiny app for resizing images.

• March 10, 2018: run kmeans in the Lab space (instead of the RGB space)

• Nov 18, 2017: added some options for croping, rotating and saturating the image

To improve

I think there is room for improving the pixel art models (e.g. better separation of colors). Maybe with package imager. Ideas are welcome.
