What Sitegoat is
Sitegoat turns photos into Minecraft map art and builds the result in a world with a datapack. Its browser-based editor shows a live preview, lets users crop, pad, or stretch an image, and offers smooth or sharp detail. Users set the artwork’s width and height; each map uses a 128×128 block grid.
The generated datapack is for Minecraft Java Edition 1.21 or later and requires no mods. Sitegoat says the work runs in the browser and photos stay on the user’s device. Chrome, Edge, and Opera can install the datapack directly to a selected world folder; other browsers can download a ZIP. Cheats must be enabled to run the `/function` command, and the page recommends clear, flat ground. A build can be undone with `/function mapart:clear`. Bedrock is not supported. Sitegoat is web-based and has a free plan at no cost. There is no free trial, and a feedback form lets users contact the maker about bugs, ideas, or confusing steps.
