Hi all,
I am slowly uploading my stuff here on Pixeledit for the first time and some of them have been tagged for needing to be revised:    Can someone please tell me what revisions are needed? I kinda can tell the tree in the tree house might be a problem, but I cant think of anything for the others. Thanks in advance! |

The Cauliflowers just need a bit of clean-up, they're quite noisy (FWIW, I voted to accept those). In pixel art, it's often more effective to focus on forms and lighting than surface details, because there's not enough space for the surface details to be big enough to read clearly. The tree house has mixed zooms (the roof is zoomed in, the rest is not), the floor is very noisy, and everything overall feels a bit unfinished and haphazardly put together, nothing quite feels like it's part of the same scene. |

Hi Aiat, Would you mind to embed the images in your top posts next time? I just did it for you :) I'm sorry you didn't get a message about this, but I think that the cauliflowers have only been rejected because of their http://yanrishatum.ru/pj/?input=http%3A%2F%2Fpixeljoint.com%2Ffiles%2Ficons%2Fculli_run.gif%0Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fpixeljoint.com%2Ffiles%2Ficons%2Fculli_walk.gif - incredibly high color count. I suspect that if you find out what caused that, and cleaned that up they would be ready immediately for the gallery :) |

| Oh ok, thanks for the info. These are a little old works where I reduced the transparency and used that to shade. I assume that is not correct and I have to use solid colors? |

| If that is what caused the excess colors (probably) then yes! |

Is this ok for the color count level? |

More than colour count, what's important is that you're using your colours effectively, that each colour contributes. You still have some colours that are barely distinguishable from each other, especially at 1x zoom. It also looks like you have some greens that only appear for a frame each, and some for only one pixel at that. |
