This is perhaps a bit off topic, or maybe not.

I just deployed a rough, first version of an online pixelart drawing app: https://pixla.nu/?ps=DyIAIQESCSIBIIICIRILIoEgAg8iACENIgACNiIBAAACCyIAIAF3AHALIgAHAncAAgoihAcAcAcCCiKEBwBwBwIKIgAHAncAAgoihAdwAHcCCiKDIHAAcAsigyB4gHALIgAHAXcAcAUiBBEAEAJ3AHALEQIAAAF_EUUR

It's meant to be limited in features, a little bit like pico-8 actually. The canvas size is fixed to 32x32, and the palette is fixed to the (original) pico-8 palette. Left button draws, right button picks up the color under the mouse.

Perhaps the most special thing is that the pixels are saved in the URL, so the images can be saved by simply bookmarking the page. The links are also easily shared on social media, and the preview includes the image.

If it's not clear from the screenshot, I can't draw. So I hope some people with some pixel art skills will find the tool fun and useful. Please try it out, and let me know of any problems or feature requests you might have!

Oh, the name of the site is in swedish. "Pixla nu" means "Draw pixels, now!", where pixla is the verb form of pixel and nu means now.

Nice! I found your site through https://www.instagram.com/p/CE07fwUnby1/?igshid=1kklttfmfkvhg, very nice tool! I like how you use the URL!

Feedback on mobile: Palette could be below the drawing surface. The selected color be highlighted.
