-Matt

[Yeldarb]

and before you ask why,



Hehe, this question has been asked many many times, do a <--SEARCH--> and you will find your answer.

And btw, if you were wondering, pixel people are no more. Sintax didn't have enough time to keep up with it, so the project is... well... dead.

[.Matt]

aww come on :P

lol you know what ive never seen that little search button

hey ill continue his project for him if its *dead*

[lostinbeta]

I think it's best if the project stays closed out. It was great while it lasted.

[.Matt]

aww.. o well

but do you know how to make pixel people??

[lostinbeta]

Check out the original pixel people thread, at least 12 posts containing information on this were created in that thread alone.

Basic jist: Open a graphics program, zoom in, take a 1px pencil tool, start clicking.... dot by dot by dot.

[.Matt]

ur kidding O.O

[lostinbeta]

A pixel is 1 dot on a computer monitor... thus pixel art is creating art pixel by pixel (although i've been caught using the marquee and fill tool for large areas)

[.Matt]

haha! my first pixel creation!

[Yeldarb]

heh, pretty good for a first try :)

[The_Vulcan]

Sounds boring, like making Icons...... :)

[.Matt]

omg that was so easy i did that in like 5 minutes!!

lol now i am going to make BILLIONS i sware im serious

i am now refered as Pixel-Zilla :bandit:

[lostinbeta]

@The Vulcan: I used to think the same thing, until I got into pixel art.

It's quite addictive... and occasionally a stress reliever (depending on the person).

[.Matt]

Hey Thats it!

PIXEL POKEMON

i can make like all 10,000 !!

lol but first i gotta find there names and what they look like o.O

[lostinbeta]

That just gave me an idea for my next pixel piece of the pixelLost collection.....

pixelLost Suicide!

[.Matt]

wha? what are u making now (-:

hey if u anyone really likes making Pixels we can both keep making them and add them together into one HUGE image!!

PIXEL-VILLE!

[lostinbeta]

Been done, didn't get very far.

That was actually Eilsoes project... excellent idea... it was called KirupaVille, but it never flew. :(

[.Matt]

lol cool!

HEY!! I Can make Kirupa a POKEMON!!

:ch:

[lostinbeta]

ALRIGHT! My Unibrow has evolved into a Kirupa!

::shoots self::

[.Matt]

lol.. :pleased:

[lostinbeta]

I'd love to see how that one turns out ;)

And the bold text under my name comes from moderabilities ;)

[.Matt]

First up in the pixelLost Suicide Series:

[The_Vulcan]

You got Suicidal tendencies lostinbeta ? :)

[lostinbeta]

Now what on Earth would ever make you think that? :sure:

[The_Vulcan]

I don't know how the other projects were run but group projects can be fun.

If I may offer a suggestion as to how to go about running one.



Agree canvas size
600X600 ?
1000X600 ?

Agree on a program with Layers ie: Photo Shop (people name their layer with there user name)

Someone goes first and posts mine: Indicating that they have the file and they are adding their layer.
When they have done, they post a pic of the file and a link to it.

The next person posts mine: Grabs the file does their changes posts a pic and a link to the updated file.

This way everyone has access to the file and everyone can make changes.

People only post mine: when they are ready to make their contribution, this way people don’t have to wait around.
If someone takes to long, more than an hour or so, someone else can post mine: and that will become the new file.

People can work on their contributions offline, and when ready just grab the file and add their layer.
If someone is a toss and does something stupid, you can delete their layer. If they stuff the file, just grab the last good copy.

If someone doesn’t have Photoshop, they can make their bit in whatever, and ask someone to add their bit for them.

If it is done like a South Park image, pixel people, or whatever, people can add what ever little bits they like to the scene.

Using South Park as an example: If someone started one where they are standing in the street, people can add there own characters, buildings signs etc.

As it gets crowded, or as people have new ideas, you can start new tiles, say one with a mountain background, one with a Halloween background. As it grows, once a fortnight/month, one person can string them together and post a pic of it all together.

This way, unlike the Pixel people where one person had to maintain it, it would be an entity of its own. And wouldn’t rely on anyone maintaining it.

Just an idea, may have been said before, or it may be no good……

[The_Vulcan]

Now what on Earth would ever make you think that?
Ummmm dunno,

Could be the little pixel person you just posted.
Could be something I read in your blog.


I like Death myself, there is something kinda cool about it.
To bad you only get to die once.:D

[.Matt]

At the time of this post, there were only 10,000 different pokémon in existance, but now I think there are over 25,000...
Good luck trying to beat the rate of creation in Nintendo's Pokémon headquarters. :beam:

Spock, this is a good idea. Is it going anywhere?

I don't want to have anything to do with any pokeman stuff though. That stuff makes me want to jump off a cliff.

[lostinbeta]

Haha, I know I am.

But on a side note anyway: I would never attempt that!

[RelandR]

that's encouraging ...

..but yer still spooky ;)

[eilsoe]

wonder whatever happened to my KirupaVille thread? :-/


:P


talk about crash and burn! :P

[lostinbeta]

RelandR: Yes, I know... but it's fun that way :evil: BTW: Thanks for what you said on my blog... it meant a lot to me.

:love: .. np.. I'm glad to hear that - (wasn't sure if I was helping any) - now my heart soars like a hawk :bounce:

BTW - nice new footer and icon :)

[lostinbeta]

:love:

And yeah, I thought it was time for a change... and I figured (for some unknown reason) the beginning of the pixelLost Suicide collection was more appropriate than the Queer As Lost collection ;)



And last but not least.... anyone remember the pixel apartments thing? The one where we did apartments and submitted them to http://www.mrwong.de/myhouse/

Unfortunately I didn't get to finish mine before the project closed down :( I procastinated so much I forgot about it.

http://www.lostinbeta.com/images/lostinbeta_apartment_4.gif
That's as far as I got. Maybe I should finish it just for the heck of it.

[SeiferTim]

What did you use to do that, lost? PhotoShop? MS Paint? I tried messing around in Photoshop, but it's made to help keep things from looking pixelated, and it was insanely hard to get anything to look right... I would draw a line, and then have to spend 20 minutes trying to get it to line up with another line, in order to make the shape I wanted....

[lostinbeta]

I did it in Photoshop, with the 1px pencil tool (the pencil tool is made to be crisp and un-anti-aliased).

For longer lines however, I would create a section of the line... then copy the section and paste and move it as necessary... saved a lot of time in creating lines.

[reverendflash]

un-anti-aliased?

rofl!

That's what I tried, and it drove me crazy. :crazy:
Guess I need more practice, is all... :beam:

[SeiferTim]

Anti-anti-aliased? ;P

[RelandR]

so what do you have against aliases ??? hmmm???

wait a minute - you're actually pro-alias aren't you ?

..neVer~mind

[.Matt]

Hey if any of u guys wanna start a whole new layout of lots of Pixel Images then just say so :)

im willing to make a whole lot

Hey i use MSPaint to make Pixel Creatures and stuff but can you use PaintShop Pro 7?

[lostinbeta]

Any graphics program works.... as long as it has the ability to create aliased shapes.

[.Matt]

LOL i just finished my NEW Pokemon so theres 25,001 Pokemans!

Name: Disco'Man
Type: Dance
Weakness: Rap

[The_Vulcan]

Spock, this is a good idea. Is it going anywhere?

I will chat to lostinbeta and see if it’s worth starting, and if so iron out how it should be set up.

[jokun]

hey, i like-a the pixel art. lemme try and figure out how to post mine...hmm

[jokun]

hmm...a little help here? i'm not seeing the "browse" button i was told to look for.

[The_Vulcan]

If you want to post your pic,

hit the "post reply" button. NOT: the "submit reply" button.

this will bring you to a new page.


then you can see the "browse" button to attch your pic.

[Yeldarb]

Hmmm.... anything look familiar...?
