you should at least try to make one °_°, you can't just jump here shouting "HEY PEOPLE DO TAH HARD WORK INSTEAD OF MEEE" because it's not how it works. I(we) can't help you if you don't try, and you can't learn.

Thanks for the reply.
As you can see the "colors" match because is created using % of opacity, but i need to study how to do it on color. Anyone knows a good way to make the first steps using colors ?

What pixelling program are you using? How many colours do you want to have? What colours do you want to use?

Thanks for reply.

I'm using Photoshop cs5.
The colors : Blue, green, orange, red, yellow, brown and pink.
I'm not sure about the number of colors. What do you think ?
Thanks again.

1. go to your colour picker, colour sliders or swatches.
2. pick a blue.
3. make colour all the parts you want to be blue with it.
4. repeat step 1.
5. pick a green.
6. repeat step 3

If you're using photoshop you have access to colours pretty easily. It's really a matter of trial and error to learn to pick your own colour palettes.

You can have a look here for some pre-made palettes too:

Thanks. It's so useful.

I'm learning now java programming and other things and finally i decide to search for someone to create the palette of my first game.

Maybe a weekly challenge about to color 4 game screens creating the best palette will be nice. Maybe a little money reward ( i'm so poor now xd ) will be good.

I'm not sure who i need to talk about this. If anyone knows please tell me.

Thanks for the help.

weekly challenges aren't coupled with prizes, nor run for people's personal projects. what is this thread about? is this going to be colored? why is so much explanation necessary, just add color.
