Pixel Art

um... sorry. I am bad at making names for my files.

I wouldn't say mspaint is perfect for pixel art.  Its bare-bones basic interface leaves a little to be desired.  A program I think is perfect for pixel art is GraphicsGale Free Edition.  The right click is an eye-drop, which I think is an extremely easy and useful tool.  Basically everything else is simple and easy to tweak too.

That's why I like the MMF sprite sheet editor.

This is very true.

True (I now use GraphicsGale 'cause Windows 7's Paint is now overly complicated), but I used to make all of my pixel art on MSPaint 'cause it was very easy to use.

I say just go with what you're comfortable with, whether it be MSPaint, Gimp, GraphicsGale, etc.

Did a new thing today.

What are those?  I like them, they sort of remind me of crazybones (if you know what those are).  This has a  half-pixel-art-half-by-hand kinda feeling to it.

congratulations Salmoneous you created a new pixel art style lol i like those things too, the legless floaty beings that are... what exactly have you named them? anyways

Heres some stuff i made a little while back, some of it isn;t as good as it seems

in order from top to bottom:
-Junk bots, idea from childhood sketches
-Hyrule crest... need i say more?
-island in the sky, another childhood sketch
-pixel art people, random ideas for people, i'd animate them but am too lazy

anyways thats all i have so far

Why is it always flying islands? I like your art, in any case.

Why is it always flying islands?

Because flying islands are awesome.

New pixel art style?  it's just simple pixel art. Thick brush outlining and AA, nothing new with those things. And err... I don't know what they are, just simple doodles with no name.
