Usually people just screenshot the pixel are to share it, instead of using some more fancy pixel art exporter tool or something. If you are trying to send the image into a popular thread, you can just send it! We don’t judge art harshly here, and new learnings are always encouraged!

If you do just want to share the image though, copying in the image editor does work:

```auto
img`
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
. . 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
. . . 3 3 3 . . . . . . . . . . 
. . . . 3 3 3 3 3 3 . . . . . . 
. . . . 3 . . . 3 3 3 3 3 . . . 
. . . 3 . . . . . . 3 3 . . . .

. . . . . . . . . 3 3 3 . . . . 
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
`

```

if you do ctrl+a to select all then ctrl+c to copy, it’ll be in your clipboard like that. The marquee tool to select does the same (though there’s no option besides the keyboard shortcut for the actual copy right now)
