How this list was compiled: Our own pixel pictures, drawn square by square for this site on 12 by 12 and 24 by 24 grids in October 2026. Nothing is traced, scanned or copied from clip art, and no picture shows a brand, a logo or a character from a film, show, book or game. The facts in the Flying ladybug and Yellow ladybug descriptions, the line that ladybugs are beetles and the answer about spots were checked against Wikipedia in October 2026. The color and square counts were counted from the finished grids. Licence: own work
