Image Tools for DGG Place

PSA: This repo is no longer useful as DGG r/Place tech has upgraded to display the pixels on a 3x3 grid on the client side. Artists and devs can supply regular 1x1 pixel art.

Installation

Install Python.
Install pip.
Install Pillow.

pip install Pillow

Usage

Upres image

3x's the image and moves the original pixel over 1 to the right and 1 down, so its centered.

python upres.py input.png output.png

Downres image

Does the opposite of upres.

python downres.py input.png output.png

Position image in 6000x3000

The input needs to be an upressed image.

python position.py input.png output.png X_POS Y_POS

Crop image out of 6000x3000

Keep in mind you want 1 extra blank pixel around the art at all sides.

python crop.py input.png output.png X_POS Y_POS WIDTH HEIGHT

Merge many images

You can have as many input images as you want.

python mergemany.py output.png input_1.png input_2.png input_3.png [...]

Example Workflow

Crop art out of the dgg-place canvas:

# python crop.py [input] [output] X_POS Y_POS WIDTH HEIGHT
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png chad-large.png 3273 882 483 324
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png dirlao-large.png 5019 2775 411 225
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png dog-large.png 5433 2808 192 192
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png pepe-large.png 3168 2799 270 198
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png depresstiny-large.png 396 882 315 381
python crop.py dgg-place-template-1.png ua-large.png 1986 957 1287 306

Downres large art to small:

# python downres.py [input] [output]
python downres.py chad-large.png chad-small.png
python downres.py dirlao-large.png dirlao-small.png
python downres.py dog-large.png dog-small.png
python downres.py pepe-large.png pepe-small.png
python downres.py depresstiny-large.png depresstiny-small.png
python downres.py ua-large.png ua-small.png

At this point you can update the small art!
Upres small art to large:

# python upres.py [input] [output]
python upres.py chad-small.png chad-large.png
python upres.py dirlao-small.png dirlao-large.png
python upres.py dog-small.png dog-large.png
python upres.py pepe-small.png pepe-large.png
python upres.py depresstiny-small.png depresstiny-large.png
python upres.py ua-small.png ua-large.png

Place large art in a 6000x3000 canvas:

# python position.py [input] [output] X_POS Y_POS
python position.py chad-large.png chad-canvas.png 3273 882
python position.py dirlao-large.png dirlao-canvas.png 5019 2775
python position.py dog-large.png dog-canvas.png 5433 2808
python position.py pepe-large.png pepe-canvas.png 3168 2799
python position.py depresstiny-large.png depresstiny-canvas.png 396 882
python position.py ua-large.png ua-canvas.png 1986 957

Merge all canvasses:

# python mergemany.py [output] [input_1] [input_2] [input_3] etc
python mergemany.py dgg-place-template-1-new.png chad-canvas.png dirlao-canvas.png dog-canvas.png pepe-canvas.png depresstiny-canvas.png ua-canvas.png

Throw dgg-place-template-1-new.png on dgg-place after you rename it.

Disclaimer

I am not a Python dev.
I just managed to cobble this together with some help from GPT-4. I take no responsability.
Seems solid tho, right?
