you guys should really re-consider your methods of deciding what is and what isnt a rip :\|

im not mad at the community, indigo, for the most part people here are great, just when people take it to my account at deviantart, thats when it pisses me off.. like pixelblink did.

hey man, no one is mad at you - and just because one person (me) mentions something about one of your pixel pieces doesn't mean you have to hate the entire community.

So lets say this was drawn side by side with the original; you still copied every single last pixel right down to the missing pixel on the 4th column 3rd row star. Im not saying thats bad (for an edit) - but according to the general rules of this site you shouldn't do that.

I think your other pixel art is great man, keep on posting here. Dont get all butt-hurt over one lousey dispute. its not worth it. people will hate you.

i have already stated how i created the piece, it is not a rip, as i said
it was drawn side-by-side with the original, using my own palette, and with my own twist. AS I SAID it was a means for me to learn new colouring technique.. .. i liked this community, hell i got a few people to sign up, but this is just retarded - and leaving flamebait comments on my work at deviantart? stupid move, youre an idiot :|

I'm glad I took a second look at this one kids because, as far as I am concerned, it IS a rip and that's not cool at all. This will not continue, moglenstar. Please submit only your own work.

Indigo (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 6/15/2005 07:20

did you even look at the animated gif i posted? its a pixel perfect replica. not even 1 pixel is off alignment (besides the fire). look man - i didn't say editing was a bad thing, i just said you shouldn't lie about it. is that animated gif proof enough for ya. i was talkin with st0ven yesterday and he is the one that brought it up to my attension.

moglenstar (Level 1 Rookie) @ 6/15/2005 06:38

on the contrary, before anybody starts throwing around accusations, this is not a rip from the game, but as i said, it is my own piece based on it.. believe what you will, i've been pixelling for a long time, not here but at deviantart, and the thought that i would result to ripping, or spriting, is ludecrous. ofcourse it looks like the original, i copied the style, as i said, and yes - drawing with the original side by side is how i did it.

Great work, Even if it is ripped partually from the game

I was noticing how inconsistant the quality of artwork was in the fire compared to the rest of the pic. This got me a little curious. I went around looking for this piece and here is what i found...

look at the bottom right hand corner of this rip sheet. Although the quality of this rip sheet isn't perfect, it doesn't take an expert to see that your pic is a pixel perfect rip (aside the flame) from the game. a simple animated gif can spot this out...

"based on the captain american artwork in Marvel Super Heroes War of the Gems"? How about "ripped on the captain american artwork in..."? now dont get me wrong here. you did a nice try at an edit, but please make sure you mention clearly that it is not all your artwork and is an edit. this clearly isn't just 'inspired' from the game - it was taken from the game.

about the flame...
maybe you should add dark smoke clouds comming from the flame or something. it would probably give it just what it needs to make the flame seem more real. good job so far.

PS. i dont know what PixelJoint's rules are as far as edits vs original work so im just going to leave that up to sedgemonkey.

nah - this isn't contraversial - he is not holding an american flag. this flag only has 30 stars! captain america is burning the flag because some country is trying to impersonate america. talk of identity theft - geez.

lol, i think he looks great!!! go captain america.... geesh i have way to many comics *sighs* .. dam u Kathy's comics!!!.... *ahem* anyway... yea this very nice, my one crit is the fire...the edges just look a tad dark... but other thn tht it is great, good job indeed ^^

Captain America is a flag-burning hippie? I'm so disillusioned.

Garage Inc. (Level 3 Sergeant) @ 6/8/2005 21:17

That is truely great. I agree that it is controversial, but none the less, the actuall pixeling is great.
