Dot Art Converter
Upload an image and turn it into text-character dot art. Your photo never leaves the browser.
Upload a photo and turn it into dot art drawn with characters — shaded blocks, hearts, or dots. Everything runs inside your browser; the image is never uploaded to a server.
Use the width slider to size the picture and the style buttons to change its texture. Posting on a dark background? Toggle Invert so the shape reads correctly.
Copy the result as plain text. It keeps its shape best in fixed-width places like Discord code blocks or a notes app.
FAQ
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No — conversion happens entirely in your browser using canvas. The photo never leaves your device.
The result looks squashed.
Paste it somewhere with a monospace font — a Discord code block or a plain-text editor keeps the proportions.
What images work best?
High-contrast images: logos, icons, and clear silhouettes convert the cleanest.
Can I make it bigger?
The width slider goes up to 56 characters. Very wide art may wrap in chat windows, so match it to where you'll paste.
