Description This tutorial is for Gimp, but would probably work in Photoshop too, no idea about any other programs though, sorry

In the last batch of lineart I made, I found out this technique, so I thought you might like me to share
This is just a way to make an already made lineart pixelized so that MSPaint users can use it too

I hope this helps, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

That's neat! Never knew that before. I love it! Now I can use that to make a pixelize lineart effect.

Please forgive my ignorance and this stupid question, but how is it useful to pixelate a lineart?? I hope I didn't sound aggressive or something similar, I'm just curious.

Oh, no, I've been asked this before
Some people can only use MSPaint, so any lines that aren't pixelized would colour oddly and wouldn't work right. This is useful for people who either mainly use MSPaint, or for people who make lots of lineart and would like to convert it for any people who use MSPaint.

Oh, all right, it's interesting to know that, knowledge doesn't hurt. Thanks for your kind answer and for sharing this tutorial.
