The usual meaning of "programmer art" is "art made by a programmer".
Usually as a placeholder or out of necessity due to lack of a dedicated artist.
It implies poorer quality as a programmer has presumably dedicated most of their efforts to learning how to program rather than learning how to draw/compose/etc.
What you are talking about would more likely be called something like "programmatic art", "procedural art", "generative art", etc.
Another related issue is that there is just so much needless padding around each thumbnail (also the site in general).
By minimizing padding could easily fit another coloumn without widening the page.
By minimizing padding and puting the title over the top of the thumbnail could easily fit another row without increasing the height of "Popular" and only increasing the height of "Latest" by a little.
I'd just do something along the lines of breaking it up into panels, a few rivets/bolts, some nonsensical painted markings.
If you want it to look dirtier add some wear and tear, scratches on exposed edges, rust were paint is scraped away, maybe a dent or two from previous battles, grease spray around moving parts.
You think you interests are more important than those of the person who actually created the work (the artist), who is graciously allowing you to make use of it?
You think you deserve to deprive everyone else of the work?

I have difficulty enough motivating to create already without introducing the ugliness of money.
I was thinking of Buch, he's already got a patreon so he can't hate money too much and like you he seems to favour zelda-style stuff.
He isn't just asking in the abstract, he is saying he wants to do this deplorable thing and even admits that he recognizes it as such.
What a horrible thing to ask.

This speaks a great deal about your character.

Oh, I also changed it to my preferred version of the NES palette.
