https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/517844 I want to upload this.
Topic: How can I upload an image that is only 250 pixels wide?
Posted under General
well the guidlines only say images less than 256 will likely be deleted. doesn't sound like they'll all definitely be deleted
probably depends on the content in the image. if it looks like poo then yeah that would increase the chance of deletifying
post it and see if it makes the cut. in my opinion it looks pretty good
It should be fine if you upscale it sensibly.
From the uploading guidelines:
Sensible integer upscaling with nearest neighbor (a.k.a. without smoothing filters) is permitted for pixel artwork that would otherwise be too small to see well.

Anything below 256 in either direction straight up cannot be uploaded

Yeah, it should be upscaled, but not in a way that makes it a blurry mess, and also not excessively (i.e. don't blow it up to 2000 in width), do as little upscaling as you need to for it to be uploadable

Ideally this image needs a 2x scale, which would make it very much large enough at 500x700. Feels a little excessive to 2x an image that's only 6 pixels away from meeting the requirement... but any non-integer scaling is going to result in mixels.
Yeah, the change to requirement became a thing once we got WebP thumbnails on the site, where the thumbnail sizes were also increased - update that has been heavily requested for eternity.
It's othervice acceptable and source is PNG so you do not have to worry about anything extra.
Basically upscale it nearest neighbor aka no interpolation, 2x or 200% and upload.
My problem with this is that I have seen what users do and even something as simple as this can be fucked up really royally, so if you don't have confidence just say so and I can do it.
I do not know if I love or hate this term.
Non-square pixels or inconsistant pixels I have mostly used.

I thought that "mixels" was more used to refer to different elements in a work (usually a video game) having significantly diffrent pixel resolutions.
I think the artifacts caused by non-integer scaling is more often just called warping (or in animation "shimmer").
