Remember back when all the FF characters where composed of tiny dots? I do :D Soo....I decided to try and make one myself, make a larger one.
So far this is how far I've gotten

So I figured, maybe if you guys wanted to, we could each pick a class or character and each make a pixelized version!! And then at the end we could add them all together and make a party. Maybe even for the brave people, they could put in a pic of themselves in real life, and we could try and pixelize them too. If you do want to do it, please don't just copy and paste/resive a screenshot...
I thought it was kind of fun, but pretty tough, anybody wanna make some pixel people?

It's actually not too hard to do. The main problem you get is that you'l make one part of his body too long, and it will mess up the entire thing. What I did is I picked one size of the paint brush, the medium square one, I copyed and pasted the original pic into a new pic, zoomed x8 and basically just copied pixel by pixel (not cut and paste mind you ;) )It's pretty fun ^_^

Nice sprite!
I finished one the other day, so if you want to see, I'll post it up, but otherwise I'll just leave it at this:
Nice sprite :). Try shading a little more once you've finished.

Ya, I'm not too happy with the shading myself, I messed up on some of the proportion, so some of the shading got wayyy messed up ><

Ya thats Tails.
You wanna see something really cool?
Save the final Tails pic to ur comp. go inot paint and put a box around him (the selection box) and do sketch/skew 20% or so. It really shows you how all the boxes blend together to make it look smooth :)
I'm gonna try and do some type of monster/baddie now, but a lot of them have very many dif color pixels scruntched together, which is kind of hard to do, I'm still trying to find a simple one...

....to have the pixels enlargened, isn't there a much easier way?
You select the image, you change the size to somewhat smaller. You save the smaller image. THEN you enlarge it again, and you have a pixelized version of the same image. Isn't this true? You can do this in the simple programs, like in Paint :rolleyes:
Then you wouldn't have to go the manual enlarging of the actual squares. :cool:Or would that be the meaning of it all? That you'ld do it all manually?
