In absolute terms, PIXITlab allows you to process and transform any image into pixel art. The question is whether the rendering obtained will be relevant and aesthetic? The important thing is the quality of the visual information that is on your image. It is obvious that if it is difficult to see what is on your initial image, there is little chance that it will give a satisfactory result once transformed into pixel art. A photograph taken in the dark, against the light, blurred etc. will not give or little satisfactory result. An image of the web in very basic or very small definition will not often give a good result either.
In more than 95% of cases it is necessary to make adjustments with the PIXITlab tool sliders to obtain a fully satisfactory result. Even if your starting image is of good quality it will always be necessary to accentuate certain zones (color, shade, light) or bring out certain elements in order to make it very readable. Indeed, it is your eye and your judgment of being human that will allow PIXITlab to treat your image with the maximum definition and quality possible.
