OP here. Thanks for all the feedback! I truly consider it a gift. My takeaways are: you want more pixel art and you want it to be more frequent throughout the post. I'm on it!

In all seriousness I deeply enjoy generating pixel art images and tweaking prompts to get exactly or closer to what I want, but across everyone giving me feedback I seem to get a 50/50 split between they're really pretty, which I tend to think is the case personally, or I'm a terrible person/ programmer/ artist for including them.

You may be interested to know I'm building a side project to help me write posts with generated images while I'm on the go:

github.com/zackproser/panthalia

So at least im the short term, be on the look out for more posts with terrible pixel art.

To be fair, I generate a bunch of Neon Punk stuff, too.
