   Please unzip the file first and then only put the ttplugin file into plugins folder.
   Data Converter:
   Please use this website to convert the image to pixel data: Click Here
   

2. Tutorial
   1. Use the data converter to convert your picture to pixel data, detailed steps:
      1. Visit the data converter website: Click Here
      2. Upload an image.
      3. Set a suitable zoom factor in order to adjust the image to a proper size, I advise to make a size of the image same of the size of the map on which you want to generate.
      4. Generate data and copy it.
   2. Open TheoTown, find and open "Pixel Picture Generator" in main category(in building menu).
   3. Click "Data" and load the pixel data you copied just now.
   4. Set the generate posiition(the left down corner of the picture).
   5. Click "Complete" then "Generate".
   After doing these you will successfully generate a pixel picture on the map.
   I am not sure that whether the tutorial is clear enough or not, please comment if you have any questions, thanks!

3. Future Contents
   Here are some contents I will work on in the future: ...Maybe
   • Higher resolution of every tiles(Like improve 1 pixel per tile to 4 pixels per tile even more).
   • Improve the data converter.

Works well

I'm yet to figure out how to center the image on the map though.

Oh nice

It will be nice if you change the icon. Currently, the icon's just a question(?) mark...

Can you also get the plugin into a category? I can only recommend Terrain and Public. But you know which category suits better, I guess.

I thought to make an icon for it but I had no idea on how to design, the question mark is the default icon when there is no icon provided.
As for category, I think award will be a nice one
