# well, on gimp
1) make a new picture, 4x4 large
2) draw what little you can draw with 16 pixels
3) go to image, enlarge image
4) make sure 'interpolation' is set to 'none'
5) put in the final size, say 250x250
6) look at the glorious big squares that come out
7) masturbate gently
8) masturbate ferociously
9) bleed

# i remember once designing a sprite for snoopy's broken and bandaged paw on the speccie
took two 8x8 blocks to do it but it didn't half come out nicely.

this is little to do with what we're talking about here, but you could get nice results in 8x16 blocks.

4x4 is just a bit too small, except on the streets of london where it's a bloody menace.

# Hahah, I meant draw it with pixels that were 4x size, not the entire image 4x4.
But that seems like it could work enlarging it from 1x size. I'll have a play later.
