This is probably going to be an intersting activity to get things pumping again.

Basically, this is like one of those word association forum games where one person says a word and the person posting after must say a word that first pops into his mind from the first word, thus the name.

The trick here is not only to say the word that pops in your head but also pixel that word. For example. I'm going to start out with something like a pixeled keyboard. The next person could pixel a mouse if that's the first thing he/she though of when seeing a keyboard.

Rules

  • If you've made an entry, wait until someone else has posted a word(along with the pixel version of course) before you go again.
  • These must be pixeled by you and you only.
  • No size/color limitations
  • Have fun!

I will start out with this next image. Remember - imagination is your limit, so be creative

So the word we're thinking of has to be a noun in order to pixel it... because we can't very well pixel something like "denial" or something.

It  could be a verb, such as running, or clapping.

Dude, you could pixel denial, hate, angst, and all those... ever heard of emoticons? And he did say imagination was your limit, so if you can't do it, that's your failure, not everyone's.

And I've gotta thank you for being a whole lot less negative than you used to be, ryan.

Thanks. :P I can't help thnking it was a lame attempt though. :P Maybe I should have done a brick smashing into someone's face. But then that would make me look violent, wouldn't it? *whistles innocently*

"Imagination is your limit" I don't see the word "violence" in any limitations or rules  but I think we're going to build on from the house as well.

And I'd like to thank you for being an asswipe and re-kindling it every time I post something.

So tell me, how exactly would you go about pixelling denial, since you seem to know all about putting emotions into pixels. And in reply to your last little snippy attitude there, "that's your failure, not everyones" I'm glad you pulled that out of nowhere.. dipsh*t.

Could you perhaps take the arguement to pms, Sab? For the sake, at least, of the thread.

Oi.

I'd hate to see ten thousand emoticons pixelled purely because of this game. That would suck. And it would be very UNimaginative. I even think it is unimaginative to even suggest emoticons when someone challenges the thought of pixelling 'denial'.

So-lou: have you ever seen dioxygen's emoticons? They are truly a site to behold. Besides, you could always do a pixle portrait and not an emoticon to show an emotion.

Ryan: let's keep the name calling to the private messaging please.

both of you: focus on posting pixels and not arguing in this and all threads please. Getting tired of seeing the same old peeps carrying on these arguements  and you guys could both easily just not repsond to something so trivial and let it pass. Let your real talents shine and post some images  Thanks guys

Exactly what I was going to say Denial Idea: you can draw a hand motion in front of a face as if saying "No way! I deny that!"  As I said, imagination is what counts in this collab.

Good house bots guys. Now let's think of this collab this way.

1: Identify the object that the person has drawn (if he/she hasn't already done so)

2: Think of a word that would probably pop in your mind after hearing that word.

3: Try to think of a word that you can can creat an imaginative pixel piece out of.

I'll do one as well since this IS my idea I should participate as well.

Damn, you posted it just when I was about to post mine ;)
I'll show it anyway.
What comes to mind when you see a robot with big red eyes and antennas?
Behold - a mutated fly!



Why mutated? Because I f*****d up the wings XD

Great pieces guys. DE we will include your's so don't feel bad. I knew that something like this would happen so I already thought through. Try to make small but good pieces. Don't work too long on them since someone can take your place before you. The next person can either choose to continue from the toaster or the fly since they basically posted from the same piece (house bot)
