This tool comes handy when buying beads, like Hama, Nabbi, Ikea Pyssla and so on.
It takes a pixel art image as argument and it outputs how many colors do you need
and how many beads do you need per color.
It does not remove alpha channel or colored background from the image, so if your
background color matches some part of the image subject, you may have to repaint
the background or you have to count them manually.
