There's over 21,730 sheets on the site. Good luck.
I'll reupload them once you finish all of them.

Lol I could update 100-200 a day, for a period of 4 months, and they would be complete. Hmm, maybe, just maybe.


RE: Suggestions - Dazz - 04-06-2009

It'd takes hours to do 100-200.


RE: Suggestions - Yawackhary - 04-06-2009

Not only it will take a while, but what about sheets that have more than 256 colours if what Tyvon/Osris is saying is correct? Plus there is a rare chance that one of the colours used on the sheet is also the tSR background colour.


RE: Suggestions - Boo - 04-06-2009

So.. no then? xD

Yeah, the answer is "no". Plus, I like the background colours for my sheets.


RE: Suggestions - Ton - 04-06-2009

Me too. It makes the sprites "pop."


RE: Suggestions - Miles07 - 04-06-2009

At the very least, we have to form some sort of rules about the background color. For instance: the BGC can't be a color that'll hurt the eyes of whoever wants to see the sprite sheet. Also, it would help if the BGC doesn't "blend" in with the sprites, so that a sheet of mostly dark colors, for instance, isn't SO dark that you can't tell where the sprite ends and the background begins. Stuff like that.


RE: Suggestions - Previous - 04-06-2009

i don't think we need 'rules' for that - if a background color is too clashing, people will state it in the submission's topic anyways.


RE: Suggestions - Ton - 04-06-2009

The background color "clashes" because nobody in their right mind would use that color in a sprite sheet. Additionally, using something dark on a dark sheet makes the sprites harder to see. That's why the magenta that Dazz and I use is a good choice. It's an obnoxious color that isn't included in sprites, but it bright enough to showcase the sprites.

You can also usually find a good background color by going into Paint, clicking Invert Colors, eyedropping a color, undoing the Invert Colors, and then paintcanning that color onto the background.

PNG has transparency, actually.

But yeah, way too much work for such a little detail.


RE: Suggestions - Alpha Six - 04-06-2009

PNG transparency doesn't pick up on all browsers, iirc


RE: Suggestions - K.D. - 04-06-2009

Regular PNG transparency works on all browsers that support PNG, IIRC. It's PNG alpha transparency that doesn't work on IE 6 and lower.

I doubt tSR even loads right on browsers that don't support regular PNG transparency.


RE: Suggestions - Alpha Six - 04-06-2009

On another computer at my friend's house (note: it's also really shitty) that runs IE, tSR doesn't show up at all except for the logo at most.
