Sprite off

[Fisherson]

Hey I just suggesting stuff. This is Lucas's thing. I just want to try and participate this time. I say go to MSN and discus this then come back and post the new rules. Then we make a thread and get this started.

[Ben]

holy ****. its like nobody here has ever had to work with pixels before.


ANY GIVEN RGB VALUE INCLUDING GREYS COUNTS AS A COLOUR.

[Archem]

But not transparent, right?

[HobomasterXXX]

Transparency shouldn't ever count. That's stupid. And by the way, so is keeping it to charset size. It is nigh impossible to make something natrual loooking in it's posing on those restrictive sizes.

[Archem]

Transparency counts as a color, so 1 color = empty BG

Transparency shouldn't ever count. That's stupid.

Lucas, honey, I think I've won this argument. *applies lipstick*







Oh, like you've never seen Rocky Horror.

[fruckert]

If two pixels have the same RGB value, but a different Alpha value, they can be considered the same color, as they technically are the same color, but you can see through one a tad more.

EDIT: Might want to ask the expert's on this matter though. I'm not too positive.

[SaiKar]

Someone get back to me when there's some official rules and stuff.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

Oh, like you've never seen Rocky Horror.

I have, if that counts for anything. *does time warp*

[Ben]

Lucas, just throw down some standard rules, I know you know your stuff.



I might join simply out of nerd rage.




Xtreempein, you have not checked out many actual pixel art sites have you? Transperancy is almost ALWAYS included in the colour count of a pallet

Are you talking about me?
Can't tell, I thought that was your nickname for...man I forgot his nick...it's xXtremeXx or something similar.
If so, then no, I have not, I was just giving my own two cents on that aspect. I, as you very well know, am no artist, and as such don't really have much knowledge in these matters. I just thought I'd give my opinion on that matter.

[Ben]

no i was talking to xtreempein.

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

OOh, a sprite off of charsets? nvm me.

[fruckert]

no i was talking to xtreempein.

All right, point taken

[Valiere]

Damn you and your tempting, tempting contest!

[SaiKar]

A title screen isn't a sprite contest test. It's a photoshop filter test. Plus it's sort of a weird category since a game only needs one title and potentially dozens of everything else.

Could change it to a number of things, like a weapon category, or a handheld object of your choice that fits with your character set, or something along those lines.
