Tilf (Tiny Elf) is a simple yet powerful pixel art editor built with PySide6. It’s designed for creating sprites, icons, and small 2D assets with essential tools, live preview, undo/redo, and export options.

Features

  • Pencil
  • Eraser
  • Fill (bucket)
  • Eyedropper
  • Rectangle (stroke)
  • Ellipse (stroke)
  • Canvas:
  • New image with custom dimensions
  • Zoom 1–50x (mouse wheel or slider)
  • Editable background color (alpha supported)
  • Optional grid with customizable color
  • Clear canvas
  • Workflow:
  • Undo/Redo with history up to 50 states
  • Drag & drop images to open
  • Real-time preview in a side dock (you can move it wherever you want)
  • Import/Export:
  • Open PNG, JPEG/JPG, BMP
  • Export to PNG (with or without transparency), JPEG/JPG, BMP
  • Handy details:
  • Hold Shift while drawing rectangles/ellipses to constrain to squares/circles
  • Grid is shown when zoom (cell size) is at least 4

Why doesn't this tool have many commits?

Because I mainly used it for learning and personal purposes. Publish it as an Open Source project might be interesting for others as well.
