    Probably the best way is to find some sort of dungeon, such as an Apex Laboratory, and just smash / kill everything in sight.

    I got thousands of pixels from just clearing a USCM prison.

    pixels are pretty easy to get at higher levels, on a level 10 planet there are so many diamonds im at the point where I just ignore them, and refining them gives 100 per ore.
    if you have access to high level stuff then go gather massive amounts of diamonds, other wise keep killing and refining unneeded ore
    if you dont have the refinery yet, pixels are pretty easy to get enough for what you need on lower levels

    As stated above, USCM Penal Colonies are a really good way to get pixels, even in the early parts of the game. On one of my first planets, I wound up finding one that raised me to nearly 10,000 pixels and the enemies inside did pretty measly damage.

    I found this link from the coordinate sharing thread that's been pretty helpful in locating dungeons and the like: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...0=1&sortcolid=-1&sortasc=true&rowsperpage=250

    Happy hunting~
     
  7. Or you could smelt some ore down into pixels?

    Exploration is the best way to make some pixels until you're able to craft the refinery. Once you reach some higher Tier planets the enemies can drop around 200 pixels each so that helps. To start off though I would just mind some coal and go to your neighboring planets. see what kind of vilages/dungeons you can get into.

    Now that I've rolled a Human for this new patch I've found..donning a wedding dress..and soliciting myself amongst denizens in Starbound has made me a pretty penny. Need to carry some stimpaks though, just in case!

    She looks a bit chunky. Slap the fat, ride the wave anyone?

    Best way is to hit up a desert planet and mine down. Once you have a diamond pickaxe it's easy peasy. Clear out all the fine sand and let all the ores fall on you. Refining silver, gold, and especially diamond will net you thousands in no time.
