[SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!

[GhostKillahZero]

Finally! The jetpack marine is finished... Now I just need the marine tank, Note: that some it's rotations is the same as the others... But you get the point, Any suggestions?

Also check this rail gun that OSJB or whatever his name is, personally it looks like a centered version of Shadow Warrior's Railgun... I just added a scope to it

I wonder if you could sprite it with the standard marine weapon. Just an idea.

JPG noooooo

JPG noooooo

Sorry I forgot to save as PNG just use Format Factory to convert it to PNG, it's free...

[TheMightyHeracross]

Too late. Saving as .jpg ruined it, conversion cannot save it.
The file format was not the problem, we could just open it in Paint and save as PNG, or even do it in SLADE, but saving as jpg gets the colors messed up.

Read up!

As a rule, JPG absolutely suck and should never be used for any sort of low-res pixel art thing.

If you're talking about 2048x2048 or larger textures for modern games, sure, you can use lossy compression. JPG's fine then. But with a 50-pixel tall sprite using paletted colors? NEVER. JPG was designed for photographs, with unlimited colors and high definition, so that detail loss isn't an issue whereas file size is. PNG is pixel-perfect and is the format you should always, always use. The damage done by saving as JPG cannot be undone by resaving in a different format.

Just saw this on imgur and it seemed kind of relevant:

Frankly, I can't work out if it is racist or not.

Not to be intentional, but if I said that's why France forbids that, that would be racist.

I'm pretty sure being cylons is not the reason why burkas are banned* in France. Though I guess it'd be cool if it were?


* Only in certain settings, like schools.

We'll I guess I see your point in converting it to PNG using SLADE however I was using my Ipod Touch to upload that sprite sheet, I didn't have time to upload it using a computer because I had to head back home for lunch and had to place these sprites into a sheet. Also these are in doom palette so I don't think I ruined the colours... Note: that saving photos from a different app into your photo library will save it as JPG so try to remember that...

[Amuscaria]

Not really sure why but that sprite made me want to make....



A CacoCylon!

[Gez]

Memes don't need anything except to die.


And in my defense, the cylontinel is an old thing I made long ago to criticize a proposal for a sentinel redesign.

[Captain J]

then he should make this sprite once again into a png. for this time, no mistake.

and that was pretty good, also everybody liked it. in that case, your cylontinel just made this meme more lively.
