How these figures are measured
These figures describe up to 100 entries returned by the public ranking. Creators are distinct uploader names in that sample; the rating is the mean of its thumbnail ratings; votes are summed from those entries. Active users and total uploads need separate measurements.
596
GitHub release downloads, total
$350+
Community contributions via Ko-fi (self-reported)
Talk to the team
Static figures, checked 2026-10-09. Downloads: sum of per-asset download counts across 9 releases of FlozWerDev/Paimbnails (latest v1.2.0, Sep 2026) via the public GitHub API; excludes the separate -comp beta repo and in-game installs. Ko-fi total: over $350 USD in cumulative community contributions, self-reported by the team as of October 2026 (VIP granted manually, not automatic). Revenue is donations only — MRR ~$0, no paid plans; AI pricing still in validation. No Discord member count is published, so Discord appears as a link only. These are project-support figures, not product usage; the top-100 ranking sample above is not traction.
Available in Paimbnails
Spend more time creating.
For level creators who want to reuse their work, bring artwork into the editor and collaborate on their next project.
02 / Artwork
Turn pixels into editable objects
Import images and animated GIFs as native Geometry Dash objects. Explore the conversion pipeline and its object budgets in our interactive technical paper.
03 / Collaboration
Create with your team
Work in the collaborative editor with live cursors, invitations and voice chat. Capture and share level previews with the community.
Try the conversion in your browser
Run the existing image-to-objects experiments, adjust the object budget and inspect the measured output. This demonstrates the conversion engine used by the editor.
Roadmap / planned features
A creator assistant built around your tools.
We plan to explore Claude for creator workflows, moderation assistance and documentation support. These integrations are not available in the current release.
Planned / creator pilot
Describe an edit
Use natural language to choose your own templates, colors and object limits. The proposed pilot would show a preview and ask for confirmation before applying an edit.
Planned / human review
Help moderators review uploads
Explore suggestions that flag possible guideline issues and explain them to a moderator. Approval and removal decisions would remain with the team.
Planned / project documentation
Find answers for your version
Explore an assistant grounded in installation guides, release notes and project documentation, with links to its sources and a route to human support.
Example request / concept“Decorate this selection with my template, in blue and violet, using at most 500 objects.”
Planned workflow: describe → preview → confirm. This is an illustration, not an interactive demo.
We would evaluate the pilot on creator time saved, accepted edits, errors and cost per task before considering a wider release.

04
Frame interpolation
Geometry Dash simulates at 240 fixed ticks; your monitor asks for frames in between.
Smooth at any refresh rate
Draws the in-between state the real clock asks for, so motion advances evenly at 144, 165 or 240 Hz.
Per-element switches
Camera, background and ground, both players and, optionally, trigger-driven objects.
Three latency modes
Plus a strength dial, so you choose how far ahead it reaches.
Simulation untouched
Authoritative values are restored before the frame is drawn — physics, replays and percentages come out identical.

About the project
Built for a community of creators.
Paimbnails is an independent project started in September 2025 and led by FlozWer, with community moderators and playtesters. It brings level discovery, reusable editing tools and shared previews into Geometry Dash. Contact: FlozWer@flozwer.org.
The project is community-funded, with over $350 USD contributed to date via Ko-fi (self-reported by the team, as of October 2026), and monthly recurring revenue is effectively $0. AI-assisted creator services are still in validation — there is no paid AI plan today, and the mod remains free.
- Available today
- A free Geode mod, public releases, a community gallery and creator tools.
- Current support model
- Community donations help cover bandwidth, storage and development. Donors can receive the existing VIP benefits. See supporter benefits
- Services under consideration
- Optional paid creator services could support future AI assistance and hosted collaboration. There is no paid AI plan available today; the mod remains free.
- Community standards
- Thumbnail submissions follow our published guidelines and moderation process. Players can report inappropriate content. Read the guidelines
Who is Paimbnails for?
Geometry Dash players who want visual level previews, and creators who want capture, decoration, image import and collaboration tools in the editor.
Does the current release include Claude?
No. The Claude integrations described in the roadmap are planned experiments. The downloadable mod and browser conversion experiments are available independently of that roadmap.
How can I give feedback or discuss a pilot?
Join the project Discord and tell the team which editor task you want to improve. Creator feedback will help define the proposed pilot before it is released.
