🎨 What is Blue Marble?
I use Wplace Blue Marble as my main tool on Wplace live. It is a free open src script for the site. The add on will show a full size plan as an overlay on the big grid. It can read a PNG or a WEBP file and show it at real pix size. The UI gives a live read of tile and pix coords as I move the mouse. I tap the pin icon and the tool will fill the coord form for me.
The code will map a deface hex to a see-thru pix so the site base can show. The tool has a set of view aids to help me line up each pix by eye. I can set the opac and the pad of the plan to fit my view.
I can save a map set in local save via the UI. I can pass the same set to my team so we all aim at one plan. The run is open src so I can read all code in the repo and build my own fix if need.
I run it on a phone or my lap PC and it sits light on the page. It will not auto fill pix; it is a map and aid for my hand work. The tool helps me keep a big art plan calm and neat.

- Go to the web ext shop and add Tamper ext to the brow.
- Open Tamper ext from the ext bar and set dev mode on.
- Down the last file from the rel page of the repo.
- Drag the file to Tamper ext and click the add ok.

Steps for Firefox:
- Add Tamper ext from the store.
- Down the file from the rel page.

Note: if the script will not run, turn off other ext then test. I keep a note on my PC to mark the last ver and the date I add it.
🛠️ How to Use Wplace Blue Marble
I will show how I use Wplace Blue Marble in my art flow. Use a PNG or WEBP for best fit. Keep the pix in the file at the real size. Use clear pix for the part to skip. Use a deface hex to map a see-thru tone to the site.
To set the pos, click the top left pix on the big grid. The UI will show the tile and pix coords. Tap the pin icon to fill the coord inputs. Then up the file in the UI and click the on box. The plan will now show on the grid at the pos you set. Move the view and check each tile by hand. If a part is off by one pix, tweak the Tl X or Tl Y and re up the plan.
You can set a color map if you want to map a hue to a site hue. Use the opac bar to find the best see mix. Use the help aids to show line and block edges. The tool will not fill pix for you. You must place each pix by hand or via your own bot. Treat the script as a map and note pad for art.
🛠️ How to Use Blue Marble
I use some pro tips to get the most from Blue Marble. Set the overlay low to let your eye find the pix. Use pin to fill the coord fields fast. Use clear pix to hide parts of the plan you do not want to paint. Break a big map to many tile sets to make work more calm. Save one set for test and one set for go live. Swap the PNG to test a new idea fast.
If the view lags, cut aid lines and drop the opac. If pin will not fill, click the pix and type the vals by hand. Use a color map if the site hue set and your file hue do not match. Use the coord read to mark key lines and cross.
Use the overlay as your map and not as an auto pen. The tool will aid your hand work and cut many dumb math ops.

It pairs well with a team plan and keeps us on the same map. The set of pro like aids cut the time I need to map each pix.
The opac aids, the pin auto fill, and the live coords are the main wins I use. The script is small but it can fit many use arcs.
