a super fun thing you can do with those pixelated portraits is to downsample them to their "native" resolution, 64x64, save them as a PNG with indexed colors, which gets you down to ~1KIB file size. In my case, it's 996 bytes.

You can then use them on a website with the image-rendering: pixelated; CSS directive and just scale them up as you want. Always looks sharp, perfect results, profile picture for less data than the HTML page it's contained within. Now live at https://overengineer.dev/me/card/ because why not.
