This contest is open to everyone and is quite simple. Submit your ultimate 16 color unique + original color palette.
These palettes are not to be considered art so no adding to your galleries. This palette will be used to launch a new PJ project on Sept, 12 so if you make a palette you acknowledge that it will be used by others for the purpose of this project and credit may not be posted by participants if they submit their project piece to their gallery but you will get overall credit for it. *Its best to assume that other's may use your palette so by entering you are giving permission to all. Why bother entering? Well we have these 'spiffy' trophies + points which are rare and will look great in your profile. Look how beautiful they are :) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() *only 1 honorable mention will be given for this contest but its the best looking one so trying to get that one is a mini-goal on its own ![]() Judging will be held by your PJ Mods - Pie, cure, Hatch, ska, B.O.B. and jal (You may comment on your fave palettes and sway the vote) Winning palettes will be picked on the basis of how it would work on the project theme, which will be kept a mystery for this contest to participants. A unique + original palette is the goal but a well balanced palette is important too. Use this template for your submission. You must name the HEX values and NO black - 000000 or white - FFFFFF Image has been spammed-(removed) Post your entry on this thread!!! Contest closes next Friday, September 10, 2010.

Actually, nevermind. I'll just use jal's image spec doohicky, it gives out HEX values. Hoorah!
![]() edit: Oh snap, I've encountered a small teeny little problem. The image checker does say what the HEX values are, but not in the order that I used them in. I have to play a bit of 'pin the tail on the donkey' here. Is it going to be a problem if I accidentally pin the wrong HEX on the wrong color? |

I have a BMP2Hex program I wrote a while back if anyone wants to use that.
http://bazosoft.dyndns.org/yow/BMP2Hex.exe Just drag and drop a BMP image onto the program and it will show you the unique colours in the image, with their hex values along-side. Note: Might crash if its not a BMP. Edited by mambazo - 03 September 2010 at 3:33pm |

Well this is a sample of Jinn's in the checker. It shows HEX on the color itself. What donkey are you trying to pin?
@shampoop, any chance you can use the template? No biggie... I'm just afraid of everyone going wild with variations and then trying to sort it all out. Edited by jalonso - 03 September 2010 at 4:11pm |

Well this took slightly longer then expected. Made the palette in paint, uploaded it to tinypic, ran it through jal's thingy, copy/pasted a screenshot of the results back into paint and matched up the colors and wrote out the HEX.
![]() Anyway... I call it "The Radioactive Glowing Neon Vomit" palette. ![]() ![]() Edited by greenraven - 03 September 2010 at 4:01pm |

Can we post sample images, just of how the palette could be ramped in different directions with blobs of color? setz, The main reason we even made this into a contest is precisely for y'alls to design a palette with as little limitations as possible. If you show the possible ramp possibilities you'll just be robbing those who end up using the winning palette for this mystery project from thinking about color in pixelart. Especially how to extend and force limited palettes to its limit. All colors are beautiful there isn't really a bad palette, the winner will be the one that shows the most range of possibilities and the most interactive and flexible and extendable one. You don't need to show us either THAT IS what we're looking for. Good palette development is a good skill to have. You get the idea! EDIT: The only risk everyone will have is what the theme for the project is. If its an underwater theme and your palette has no blues or greys then you might not do that well, ya noes. Even if the theme is an underwater one the winner could be a palette that has no blues if the palette lends itself to suggest water. Here lies the challenge for all.

No idea what the project will consist of, but trying to keep it as scientific as I possibly can. With dithering, I get a lot of color variety and without it I get a good AA depth with cool/warm dark/light colors. Gives a good result in animated sprites so far.

![]() Here's my palette, specially selected from an ongoing pixel project. For the curious, it's an entire set of Touhou-themed illustrations. And the extra curious, all colors are based off the RGB transcribed version of the (less than) 56-color NES palette. An NES Touhou Project project. How original. ![]() This project used a kit of may 3-color palettes, so here is a selection specially for this event. Lots of gray to cheat around. Partly inspired by my Copic set. In fact, the NES palette reminds me of Copic markers. It could have been inspired by those deeply saturated markers. Wait, how long has Copic been in market? Extra points for those who correctly guess which Touhou the above palette came from. |

![]() This palette is based on the wonderful effect called cross processing (or xpro) that is "the procedure of deliberately processing photographic film in a chemical solution intended for a different type of film". If you want to know more about this great processing method you can always check the wiki AND if you want to see some examples of xpro, you can check out my gf's photostream @ flickr. Also, this may help to view the palette in a different way: alternative view Great contest, have fun guys :) |

@asukicco, that's great stuff.
Always something new to learn in colors...will it ever end. @ All, Some of these are so great we may have to turn a few into weekly challenges...mhmmm. Maybe 2nd and 3rd place could be challenges in the coming weeks/months. Anyone object to that, please say so? |

Presenting: Dr D's Global 16 Color Palette!
![]() Believe it or not, a lot of work went into this palette, I actually did my research. There should be a color for just about everything. Lots of ramps. The red is a bit stark, but I feel it can be used better that way. Hope someone uses this. :) Edited by Dr D - 04 September 2010 at 1:55pm |

I object!
![]() Wait, no I don't. I don't think anyone in their right mind would object. They're just palettes, it's not like line-art or anything. And even line-art is a bit of a gray area when it comes to 'public use'. And looking at all the palettes submitted so far, mine is the most single-mindedly ruthless and least versatile. It will either hit the bullseye of this 'mystery project' or miss the ballpark by a few hundred miles. ![]() |

Not only do I believe it, I respect, admire and can see your palette is more than it appears without my own research just by looking at it, kudos my friend ![]() @green, I say that because PJ has its share of 'doller' types and they WILL jump out of your screen and beat you if you even as much as think of touching the colors they created and forever own. You have obviously never dealt with an angry doller.* *Of course, a doller wouldn't read the rule that say its for sharing cuz they see everything too rosy... btw, I like dollers, I just fear them and their wrath ![]() Edited by jalonso - 04 September 2010 at 2:00pm |
