Dense Caption

Blue pixelated heart symbol positioned at top center. Below it, white pixelated text reads "iloveyou <3" followed by a second identical "iloveyou <3" sequence. All elements on solid black background. Text uses blocky 8-bit style with rounded letterforms. The heart symbol consists of connected blue pixels forming a stylized heart shape with a small loop on the left side. The text "iloveyou" uses lowercase letters with the 'i' as a single dot above the 'l'. The '<3' symbol is a left-pointing angle bracket followed by the number 3. The entire composition is horizontally centered with equal spacing between the two text sequences.
