when to use
Generated Minecraft pixel art gets you most of the way there, but the last stretch — a misread eye, a block that should be sandstone instead of concrete, a stray color at an edge — is where a one-shot converter gives up. The maker is for that last stretch. After the automatic conversion, paint individual cells with real Minecraft block colors, pick a color from an existing cell, restore the generated color if you change your mind, and undo or redo any step. Every edit updates the material counts, the PNG, the CSV, and the blueprint, so what you see is exactly what you will build. Use the maker when a converted image is close but not right: fixing a face, swapping a few blocks for materials you actually have, or cleaning up an edge. For a no-edit conversion, use the image-to-Minecraft converter; for large multi-section builds, the build planner; to compare sizes first, the size converter.
