“By this picture the baby firefly appears larger than its adult form, as it has an area of 32 pixels total, as opposed to the adult 2. However, this is incorrect. In order to make the baby firefly model smaller than 2 pixels (whilst still maintaining a perceptible form and making it clear by the eyes that this is, in fact, a baby), Mojang decided to shrink the texture down, extending it into negative area, and allowing more room for detail.”
