The only thing the mighty bug lord Jalonso is weak against are the great and powerful white squares who hail from noobonia. For centuries the armies of Jalonsia have attempted to stop their neverending invasion of infinite forces. The Jalonsians have nicknamed these wild beasts as "White BG's".
Did you know? On the planet of Jalonsia parents tell the story of the "white bg" that lives under the bed. As the tale goes, if a child forgets to tithe and pray to the mighty bug lord Jalonso the hideous white bgs kept in his underworld will come to take them away for the lord to eat.
Haha awesomes. At first i thought jalonso's nightmare was Pixelation, lawls. But i guess the colourscheme lets the white boxes stand out best. Very amusing.

Im more scared of the pink and green backgrounds people use for sprites that should be transparant..

Ahaha I recognized the logo! :D

Yeah, doing the theme portion of the image was the most fun, since I'm a big fan of straight lines and tiny tiny pixels. If people want this, let me know, I wouldn't mind doing a series.

Why not make make a version for every theme? Then we could use it on the theme-picking page.(might have to get an exterminator first though.)

"The Jalonsians have nicknamed these wild beasts as "White BG's"."

"iazise", Jal? Jeezus Herbert Christos, I should have never reminded you of that web site. Curse this inferior brain of mine, and it's limitations in creating the time machine deeming it capable to travel back in time, and destroy this, Iaza.com...oh wellz...

Man, that is my theme, I love it. I have been using Percv@l's lately because it makes the white BGs less offensive yet visible enough to iazise my comments :p

I think jal rotates the themes in some weird attempt to give everyone a fair shot, but that's just me guessing :)
BOB-O: Thanks for the crits, I totally see what you're saying although I resisted using the patented orange and rather stick to a green theme like in the temple of jalonso piece.
Apple logo took the most time but I knew Jal would really dig it so I put a little extra time in it.

So everyone has a little pet peeve : /
*fave went for the apple logo, btw.

Looks like Jal uses the pixelation theme as well...
In terms of critique, I really think that the light source should purely be coming from the screen, rather than having 2 at the same time (the screen, and the weird spot light coming from the bottom right). IF the screen was the only light source, I'd have the reflected bright light come off of the "outlining" of his body, and darken the other portions a little more...and probably try recoloring the beetle his patented orange and green colors too. Apple icon is a little hard to read as well. It's still cool though...though ALL beetles deserve a gruesome death by large boots.

For some reason Jal always inspires me to do fun stuff :)
@Metaru: Maybe, that temple I did seems to have given it a good start eh?
