Pixilart

I made an account on here almost two years ago basically just looking for a way to make art, at first it was fun and just a friendly art website but now its a website where people fight or cause problems literally 24/7. There's people yelling about politics and large fights and arguments. As for making art it's meh. Too many ads, too many glitches and way too small of a canvas to make art on a phone. Even with a bigger canvas size added. Also the whole customization and making your own badges is awful. I tried making badges over 25+ times all for them to be rejected. Also it seems that only the bigger artists get their badges approved, only a few of the people I know on there that are smaller artists were successful after try and try again on getting a badge approved. I feel like the person accepting badges is bias. I met some nice people on there but that's about it. Personally would say that I don't ever recommend this place for kids under the age of 14.. The fact the apps 9+ shocks me. There's so much horrible stuff I've been exposed to on there and if a younger kid went on there, I think it would mess with their mental health or they'd get themselves into trouble. Also most people on there are depressed teenagers saying insane stuff. There's no real filter and that's became a huge problem. There needs to be some changes and filters added, if that doesn't happen I don't recommend the app personally even to those who are older. Hope someone takes the time to read this before downloading! Happy holidays

***I HAVE RATED THIS 5 STARS SO IT WILL SHOW UP NEAR THE TOP*** Okay yeah it’s a good app and you can upload photos and it has social media functions on top of being an actual pixel art creator… but it also has all of the issues of an actual social media app. It is legit like Twitter but with more art. So dead. And Bryan/Terphic (the moderator) is actually almost a dictator on here; he runs the entire site and only likes anime girl images and therefore those are almost the only ones that get staff picks and therefore any popularity. It is also IN THE TOS that Bryan can take credit for the work of anyone who uploads pixel art on the app and profit off it, just if you use the app. Most of the users on the app are minors and cannot be paid for their work except if directly for commissions, which some facilitate on the app. The drama is a lot. This is legitimately a social media app, with some people literally doing ERPs on the site, so please exercise caution… This app is rated 9+, but due to the content on the app that comes with the social media features, it should be rated closer to 13+

Hello. This is good, but its not just there yet. I understand that the other parts of pixilart on the website are not yet done being added to the app, so I have no taken off any stars for those. However, it seems that the search typing does not work on my iPad. I use a keyboard connected to my iPad and it yielded no results, nor did using the on-screen keyboard. Also, by ‘no results’, I mean that when I typed, no letters showed up in the bar as being typed whatsoever. However, there are definitely some things that are quite big improvements from the website, such as the way it saves the drawings so one can work on them at any time and have multiple in the process of being made, as well as the fact that the strange reload bug the site has is not present on the app. By the way, the reload thing I am referring to is when the site will randomly reload without any reason/user input and you end up losing all of the work you had done unless you had already uploaded the image to be able to edit it later on. This save feature is better because it also makes the need to upload so you can edit it later on not ever needed to be done. One final thing is that when pressing the back arrow to get to the home page, its confusing where you are, and you click back and still don’t always know how many things you opened through expanding posts. But that is less of an app issue, more of a user issue that is generally unavoidable.
