Bead-o

Bead-o is a bead pattern editor and image converter for creating bead mosaic designs. It combines image-to-pattern conversion with a board-based editor, and the interface refers to a personal collection for saved work and a public Gallery for published designs.

Its converter accepts an image chosen from the device or opened from a URL, then applies reduced-colors processing for bead design use. The editor includes a board preview and controls for pegboard setup, with named board options such as IKEA, Perler, Hama, Custom, Heart, Round, Hex, SuperSized Owl, Maxi, Midi, Midi Heart, Maxi Heart, Midi/Mini Hex, Hex 13, and Hex 16. The page also states that more custom shapes can be requested by contacting the maker. Additional tools shown in the interface include a Palette Editor, layers, and history, along with keyboard shortcuts for common drawing, navigation, and editing actions such as pencil, eraser, replace color, bucket fill, select, move, line, rectangle, circle, color picker, pan, zoom, undo, redo, copy, cut, paste, select all, deselect, and delete.

Work can be saved to Collection, saved as an image, saved as PDF, or printed. Access to the Collection requires signing in with Google or email, and publishing to the Gallery requires a nickname that appears as the author name. The site also includes sign-in, account creation, profile, feedback, user guide, pricing, terms of use, news, and about links.
