We are working on a new and much better converter. Until that is ready to use, you can still user the old one.

Convert an PNG/GIF/JPEG to C64 FLI/KOALA (image must be 160×200 or 320×200)
Just select an image, press “Convert” and look/download the converted pictures.

For best results reduce the colors in your image to the 16 colors in this palette:

Wir arbeiten an einem viel besseren Konverter. Aber solange der noch nicht bereit ist, kannst du weiterhin diesen benutzen.

Konvertiere ein PNG/GIF/JPEG in ein C64 FLI/KOALA (das Bild muss 160×200 oder 320×200 sein)
Einfach ein Bild auswählen, “Convert” drücken und das konvertierte Bild anschauen/downloaden.

    Hello!

    Great converter there! I made a handful of conversions, with good results.

    But I find that since you changed the page, I can’t download the converted files anymore. I mean, I can right-click on one of the 6 images, but if I choose “save image”, I only get a .png file, not a koala or whatever image.

    looking forward to the “even greater converter” you promised… keep rockin’. ;)

    Hmh. Doesn’t seem to work any longer. The current version does not generate .kla files anymore.

    Hello Hans, sorry for the late answer – it looks like I have overseen you comment. And now it’s fixed! The Pictures are linked to the fli/koala image.

    Excellent piece of work. I am doing something that requires a C64 style image (palette and dimensions) and was dreading having to do it from scratch in an emulator. You have saved me hours of work. Thank you very much.

    :)

    Edit: lol, can you believe I got the captcha wrong? Sheesh..

    Hi!

    I just tried your converter but it seems not to work any longer. After clicking on convert nothing happens, I can’t see any converted picture to download…

    Very cool tool! Thanks. It would be nice if we could save to Advanced Art Studio format. Also, have to play with the file names to make it work when I tranfer it to C64.

    @Johnski: I’ve just testes it and it worked. Maybe your image war not in the correct size or format.

    @digitalman161: It seems that the Advances Art Studio is also a multicolor format – it should be possible to convert the koala images (the lower two) into it. I’m sorry for the scrambled file name.

    Converter does not work here anymore either. Firefox.

    @grustref: On my Firefox (and Chrome) it does run very well. Hmmm…. maybe you blocked the iframe or something like that?
