pixelicious was good as free tool, now requires payment for something very basic as pixelating an image

Юрий Евстафьев Mar 22, 2024 v@ initial release

Doesn't look like an AI. Looks more like the result of standard image reduction and coloring a pixel in the closest color to the palette. Unfortunately, not at all what is required.
