Sprite off

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

TO set transparancy you need a color, however... it shouldn't be counted because it wont be part of the actual sprite you're gonna see.

Invisible is not on the color wheel. It's on the technical one, but not the visual one.

Invisible is not on the color wheel. It's on the technical one, but not the visual one.

But according to our God and Saint, DedlellyDeth, the color wheel is a lie!!1!

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

Gem, probably the person to go off of here as he is actually a pixel artist, says a Transparent pixel is considered part of the palette.
I'm pretty sure he discounts the background though, because that'd just be stupid.

[Archem]

You're a riot and a half.

That extra half is what makes it all worth it.

But according to our God and Saint, DedlellyDeth, the color wheel is a lie!!1!

False idol, bitch.

The Archem is not pleased. Not at all...

[fruckert]

I worship the Square Dood, not Douchecackus Supreme Dethmobile.

[Darkfox]

And I like cake. Lots and lots of cake. So... any word on how/when this will start? :\

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

Nope. BG and transparency WILL NOT be counted.

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

Tch, anyone can tell anyone else to shut up, but if you need someone to father you then is alright.

Is completely bogus if this is actually gonna undergo those settings.

Val, in pretty much all pixel art, the transperant color in the background counts.
The Computer registers it as a value...and displays is as transperant because its told to.
It only makes sense....its motherfuggin logic.


Seriously, ****

I dont know what goes on in your heads


"HAY, THERE YEAH OKAY, UH....TRANSPERANCIEZ SHOULD COUNT AS COLER, BUT NOT WHEN ITS THE BACKGROUND"


Im not even going into depth with this. If these buttheads cant google search and look up the definition of pixel art then this contest is going nowhere

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

Dude you think I don't understand values and what not? You think I don't know pixel art?

This isn't about technological values or how a computer register those values. Who gives a ****! The computer is NOT, listen NOT, gonna grade, or JUDGE for that matter, the pixel art.

You need to find out what art really means if you think that your God forsaken tech values are high above priority when it comes down to visual and emotional stimulation.

Kij, take the stick out of your butt. Lucas is trying to host a contest, and youre going out of your way to nitpick away at a set of rules and guidelines that is actually pretty much already the standard. Hes asking you to make a 16 bit palletted piece of pixel art.
16 bits means transperancy is included. Dont s hit on my titties and tell me its a sundae. Just shut up. If youre in, then youre in, and youll follow the rules Otherwise, just can your vagi-er...mouth, and wait for the ext one, the one where the guidelines have changed. God knows i spend much more time waiting for contests with rules that suit me then i do participating in these things.

Or maybe you could just hold a shitty anime photoshoppi ng contest. Seems more up your alley anyhow....skill wise

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

Hehe, you're funnily ignorant.

I am not trying to impose rules. And I know am not certainly the only one saying that knows their stuff. We are just too picky when is not even our contest. only difference here, is that Lucas, has no idea of what he's doing when it comes to rules and the reasons for them.

We have a right until someone gives final word to fight for these standards. I am simply doing that, and so are you. We are just at each end of the table.

[Prpl_Mage]

So yeah.

Host a contest already.

[Prpl_Mage]

so... Less arguing and more contest starting?

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

No no, you obviously didn't read what I posted a few posts back.  I know transparency is a color. I know it takes up a color slot. I know the value it represents. I am not at ALL denying that concept and that truth. I am saying you SHOULDN'T count it for this contest in this site.

And btw pixeljoint is the worst community there is in the subject.

[Ben]

On second thought, youre right. Those hacks at PJ are a bunch of talentless hacks. WOrst community ever. No talent there.

SO then maybe check out pixelation



Kij, i think the bottom line is that you could very well be so bad a pixels that you are raising a fuss as a means to justify your inevitable failure.

Also, in regards to the post a photo thread.....Ive seen your picture, and youre a chubby man, not a girl. Good try though. Just saying. Not much merrit to give to fake transvestites.
