Why don't the converted colors match my original image exactly?

Wplace uses a limited 64-color palette. Our CIEDE2000 algorithm finds the closest perceptually similar colors, which may appear different from your original but look more natural to human eyes than RGB distance matching.

What's the difference between free and premium colors on Wplace?

Free colors (32 total) are available to all users at no cost. Premium colors (32 additional) require approximately 2000 Droplets each to unlock. Our tool clearly marks which colors are free vs premium in the cost breakdown.

Can I use only free colors to avoid Droplets cost?

Absolutely! Select 'Free Colors Only' mode to restrict conversion to the 32 free colors. The tool will automatically find the best free alternatives for any premium colors in your image.

How can I reduce the number of premium colors needed?

Use our cost optimizer suggestions, enable 'Free Colors Only' mode, or adjust your image's contrast and saturation before conversion to naturally use more free colors.

What does it mean when a color shows '~2000 Droplets'?

This indicates the approximate cost to unlock that premium color on Wplace. Costs may vary; check current in-game prices before purchasing Droplets.

Should I enable or disable dithering for my pixel art?

Enable dithering for photos and images with smooth gradients. Disable for sharp pixel art or logos where you want clean edges. Our Floyd-Steinberg implementation provides professional-quality results.

Why does my converted image look blurry or have weird patterns?

This is normal dithering behavior that creates smooth color transitions. If unwanted, disable dithering or try reducing your image size for sharper results.

How does CIEDE2000 color matching work?

CIEDE2000 measures color differences based on human perception rather than mathematical RGB distance, resulting in more natural-looking color substitutions.

How do I export templates for Blue Marble overlay?

Download the PNG export from our tool. Blue Marble accepts PNG templates with automatic coordinate alignment. Use #deface color for transparent pixels.

What's the #deface color and when should I use it?

#deface is a special color code that Blue Marble interprets as Wplace's 'Transparent' color. Use it in templates when you want actual transparent pixels, not ignored areas.

Will Overlay Pro support JSON export from this tool?

JSON export for Overlay Pro is planned for future updates. Currently, use PNG export for manual overlay setup in compatible overlay tools.

How do TL X/TL Y coordinates work in templates?

TL (Top-Left) coordinates specify where the top-left corner of your template should be placed on Wplace canvas. Blue Marble handles this automatically when you upload our PNG export.

Can I use overlay tools on mobile devices?

Yes, but you need Tampermonkey-compatible browsers (Firefox/Edge on mobile). Chrome mobile doesn't support userscripts. Install Tampermonkey first, then install Blue Marble or other overlay scripts.

Why doesn't Blue Marble work on my iPhone?

iOS Safari doesn't support userscripts like Tampermonkey. Use Firefox or Edge browsers on iOS, install Tampermonkey extension, then install the Blue Marble script.

Is my image data sent to servers during conversion?

No. All image processing happens locally in your browser. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy.

Why is image conversion slow on my device?

Large images (>2MB) or complex images with many colors require more processing time. Try reducing image size or closing other browser tabs for better performance.

What's the maximum image size supported?

10MB file size limit with automatic optimization for best results. Images over 500x500 pixels may be auto-downscaled to maintain processing speed.

Can I process multiple images at once?

Currently, the tool processes one image at a time to ensure optimal quality and performance. Batch processing may be added in future updates.

My converted image has too many premium colors. How can I fix this?

Switch to 'Free Colors Only' mode, adjust your original image's contrast to use more neutral tones, or use our cost optimizer suggestions to find free alternatives.

The tool says 'processing failed' - what should I do?

Check that your image is under 10MB and in a supported format (PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP). Try refreshing the page or using a smaller image size.

How do I coordinate with my team using these templates?

Export your template as PNG, share the file and coordinates with your team. Everyone can use the same template in Blue Marble for consistent placement.

Does this tool violate Wplace's terms of service?

No. This tool only helps with planning and template creation. It does not automatically place pixels or provide bot functionality, which would violate Wplace rules.
