 My submission for the weekly challenge using Arachne'sline art.

One day a mad scientist accidently knocked his super cool retro lava lamp into a vat of toxic waste and out popped this monstrosity.

Well B.O.B I don't know what to tell you, it looks perfectly fine in my internet browser, no unnescessary colors at all it reads as a GIF and it was directly cropped from the main picture. I don't think I'll reupload it again, it was pretty crappy compared to the rest of the WIP submissions I've seen and I did it for fun, I can't really drawl a good background either so meh. Thanks for everyones comments, I hope I don't have any more issues like this with my future uploads.

Well, some how, some way, you may have saved as jpeg initially, and resaved that same file as gif, as there are tons of unnecessary colors in the preview...there's an easy solution to all this: just recrop the detailed image, and save it separately as a gif file again, so it won't come out with so many colors...sending back for revision.

Well honestly this is my first ever challenge and I'm not trying to win with it, It's moreso for fun.

 

Also the Icon image is saved as gif on my computer and I uploaded it as the gif format. I made sure of that.Also when I hit imag properties on the icon image on the site it reads as gif. I don't know why it's appearing as jpeg to others.

 for some odd reason it reminds me of old space quest games. i love the huge blobby feel.

Please fix preview, as it's saved under a bad format for pixel art(jpeg), or else I'm sending back for revision...

The preview is suffering from jpg compression disease.

Well, you have problems of light and so on, but what is important is what you want render, it is to say, a lava lamp like monster. If you don't see the title,you can't understand that. I think you really should make another one using a photo of a lava lamp as a reference to make your shading, textures, etc...

Yeah thanks for pointing that out, I didn't see that bit until you mentioned it. I edited it with a simple background. I can't really think of anything for it now so I'll keep it like this until I think of a better one.

Add a background; remove the palette.
