Our mission
Colorora exists to make creative, relaxing coloring available to everyone. Turning a photo into a coloring page used to require expensive software or complicated apps. We built a tool that runs entirely in your browser, takes less than a minute, and stays free — so anyone can turn a favorite photo into a personal coloring project, whether for relaxation, classrooms, or family fun.
What we do
Our free converter turns any JPG, PNG, or WebP photo into a numbered coloring page. You choose the grid size (from 16×16 up to 120×120) and the color palette (from 4 up to 64 colors). The tool simplifies the photo, numbers every pixel, and gives you a matching color legend. From there you can color the page online in your browser, turn it into pixel art, make a perler bead pattern, or download a printable PDF. We also maintain a growing gallery of ready-made templates across animals, food, flowers, fantasy, cute monsters, and landscape themes.
Why it's free — and always will be
We believe creativity should not have a paywall. The core converter, online coloring, and PDF downloads are free with no sign-up, no watermarks, and no limits on how many pages you create. Keeping the site simple and free is our product philosophy: no accounts to manage, no subscription to cancel, just tools that work when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is pixel art color by number?
Pixel art color by number is a creative coloring activity where a grid of pixels is marked with numbers, and each number maps to a specific color. By filling in the matching colors, you gradually reveal a complete pixel artwork. On our site, you can color entirely in your browser or print a PDF and color by hand with pencils or markers.
Is pixel art color by number free to play?
Yes. Every template on the site is free to color online — no account, no payment, no download required. Browse by category, pick a design, and start painting right away. You can also download printable PDF pages at no cost for offline coloring.
Can I print pixel art color by number pages as PDF?
Yes. Each template includes a printable PDF with the numbered artwork and a full color palette reference. The pages are formatted for standard letter-size home printers, so they work well for classrooms, activity books, road trips, or quiet coloring time at home.
How do I color pixel art online?
Pick a template from the gallery, then click or tap the numbered regions to fill them with the matching color. You can zoom in for fine details, pan across the canvas, and undo mistakes anytime. The coloring tool runs smoothly on desktop, tablet, and mobile browsers — no installation needed.
What categories of pixel art templates are available?
We offer a wide range of categories including Animals, Food & Drink, Anime, Nature, Pokemon, Minecraft, and Holidays. Each category contains dozens of templates across all difficulty levels, so you can always find something that matches your mood or interests.
What difficulty levels are available for pixel art coloring?
Templates come in three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard. Easy designs use fewer colors and a smaller grid, making them perfect for beginners and young kids. Medium adds more detail and a richer palette, while Hard designs feature large grids and many colors for a satisfying challenge.
Can I use these pixel art templates in the classroom?
Absolutely. Teachers and parents are welcome to print and distribute the PDF pages for educational use. Pixel art color by number helps children practice number recognition, color matching, and fine motor skills while having fun. The printable format makes it easy to prepare activities for groups of any size.
