Ignoring what a complete waste of server memory this post is;

For any new spriters that are reading this thread; this is not the state of mind you take into doing spriting.

Or any creative activity for that matter. Your own personal flair and creative output won't count for shit unless there's solid technical understanding backing that up. That means knowing the terminology, the tools, the techniques.

If you don't understand something, ask. That's what the board is here for.

for anyone looking to record himself while pixeling, i'd recomend camtasia with the techsmith plug in. a 500x500 video of 30mins with no quality loss saved as a mpeg4 gets around 30/40mb. that, or like in the seconed video you can configure camtasia to take a screenshot every 2 seconds and make a video out of it, wich also drastically cuts the output filesize.

I'd like it very much if someone could put together a tutorial using this for tSR - I want to open up a tutorials page once I get home from New Zealand, so that'd be nifty! Smile
Tsunami Bomb - The Simple Truth
We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you

i hardly doubt you can make a tutorial out of this, since this is pretty much a way to understand terms, but not how to apply them. i think it would be better to ask someone else to let us host their tutorial on tsr.

It's more a dictionary - something I think should go under tutorials as "getting started"

reworked some of the concepts of the dictionary for a more accurate description.

Should've seen this sooner!

But now must get the realistic view about how is pixel art and spriting is about.

Right now, any "Should've seen this sooner!", "I learned stuff!" and "I wish I could understand this" posts will be warned.

This is a dictionary; you don't need to thank or reduce yourself after reading this. Keep those comments to yourself, as they don't serve for anything and only clogs this place up.

Thanks.

What a very boring and annoying post. If you wanna do something, you've gotta put your back into it. If you don't, you've given up.

On topic. I read everything. The parts of the tutorial that really helped me were the dithering and anti-aliasing. Thanks for the effort of putting all of this together. Everything was very easy to understand.

[modnote: nice work blaming a 7 month old post while still doing the exact same thing you're blaming about it]

I apologize for posting in such an old thread (despite the fact that it is stickied / pinned), but in the past I've been directed to a site that really goes in-depth about banding. Even though the first post moreso just brushes up on terminology, I thought that this may help out whoever it may concern.

Not just banding, though. It goes on about dithering and pixel clusters, as well.

I'd love if this thread got an update, because some images don't show up, some links don't work. This is a really good guide, but it just needs an update.
