The only theme I ever used is Sping Green. Because one random day jal hacked my account, changed it to that, and I never really changed it back cuz I love him and thought it was funny.
Very refreshing, low-saturated colors. Now I use it too.
What PJ theme are you using now? I use Red Fuse, which looks warmer. It's so cold in winter.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Looks like Secret Santa came early this year, I've been putting off looking at them until today! They all look amazing.
You persisted for 20 hours. But now you can comment as much as you want, looking forward to the day of 9999.
At least 3 times I started typing in a comment box and then deleted my comment again when I realised it would change my count....
So how long can you stay silent not to mess up this beautiful number? 
Hi there, I just wanted to let you guys know about my comment count 8)
Thank you, now I finally know what that setting does.
PJ is in Pacific time. But you can set your time offset in your profile!
Time zones are a very difficult thing for me. I've always wondered what time zone PJ is in.
Thanks! I am GMT, so that still might as well be the whole day. I'm not planning to submit at the very last minute (fingers crossed).
Central European Time (CET). If I'm not mistaken you're GMT, so CET = GMT+1.
For Secret Santa, which time zone is the deadline in?
My guess is Pacific Standard Time based on the weekly challenge, but I might have messed up the maths.
I try to publish more complete works, and within my means, I try.
That entirely depends on how much time you like to spend on an average piece! Fifty sprites is easy. Fifty sprawling environments with animation, not so much!
In terms of rank, I think the requirements for the number of works are relatively low.
Comments deffo the hardest, number of pieces the easiest as it eventually just adds up. Ratings... ratings are like power level, grinding stuff. Not necessarily hard, not necessarily fun to do in large amounts
it's not like i'm commenting too much, it's others commenting too little!
i actually find comments to be the hardest... unless one comments on absolutely everything. which never was my style.
Comments and ratings are the easy part, IMHO. Getting your number of pixel pieces up is much harder. Unless you do pixel dailies, I guess. 
I want to become a whale shark. That's the level 9 icon. That means I need at least 94 days, 300 + comments, 2000 + ratings and nearly 6000 points. There's a long way to go.
Compared to your ratings, the number of your comments is even more shocking!
Can't believe I missed a Carnivac sighting by almost a whole month. Miss your work, friend!
guys, i'm looking for some inspiration. what would be your favourite example of gui of first person graphic adventure or dungeon crawler (or any other oldschool game with neat interface)?
I actually think the individual rankings shine best with their own palettes, I completely agree. They each feel visually distinct and represent all sorts of variety of pixel art styles (They are from a variety of artists anyway) and I feel that if the artists were restricted to only using the colors from the original sets, they would not have turned out as good as they are.
I do agree with you to some extent that a style across the entire site would be kind of neat. But I think that would also make the site pretty boring, even if the style itself was unique and quirky. I like the variety of styles expressed across the site. Even if they don't share a lot of visual similarities, they don't actively clash stylistically, at least not from what I can tell. Perhaps somewhere in the middle is the best route: Having a standard, site-wide style guide set as default, and then letting each user branch off from there, picking and choosing between the various styles the site can offer. It is an art site, afterall, why not let the artists express themselves how they desire?
The way I extracted the palette was by downloading each of the original rankings individually, saving each image one by one, and then sorting them into folders where I would then put them into a single Aseprite file and take the colors from there. Perhaps there was an easier way I could have done it that I didn't know of? Regardless, the palette is compiled on Lospec now and I hope people benefit from that.
Hello. I am making pixel art for a game again. I am using one of dawnbringer's palettes. Than you DawnBringer. 
That's not what I was trying to get at when I made the post. I think allowing people to use whatever colors they wanted for the new rank sets was a great idea, and I think the sets look better than they probably would had we been restriced to a given palette. And personally, I like using preset palettes sometimes. It forces me to think outside the box on how to use the given colors.
However, I have no doubt that some people would have been willing to try it, and would have benefited from a compiled palette rather than having to color pick from each different rank if they were to use those colors.
At no point in my original post did I assert that the palette should have been the one we all used, simply that it would have been a benefit had the palette been compiled at the time. And I see no harm in encouraging people to try it. That is all.
Restricting rank icon sets to a premade palette won't make them better in any way.
I took the colors from all of the Pixel Joint rankings (The ones by [thUg] and Ensellitis) and compiled them into one palette https://lospec.com/palette-list/pixel-joint-ranks
Perhaps something like this should have been done back when the new PJ Rankings collab was happening, but I suppose late is better than never. I'll be sure to use it for any rankings I make for fun in the future, and I encourage you all to try it as well!
Probably your display scaling is not 100%. On windows you fix this by right clicking the desktop > display settings > scale and layout > change size to 100%
Question: I primarily use Chrome as my browser. All the pixel works get distored when viewed at 100%, is there a way to fix this?
Hey folks :)
How are you all doing?
It's that time of the year again when I feel good enough to get out of my cave and act like a human being for a bit.
I'm pleasantly surprised to still see mentions of FixelJoint here (even if half of them are bug reports 
). So, a huge PSA to the entire Firefox FixelJoint userbase (8 people according to Mozilla, minus my daily browser and my test browser): Now you can actually add things to your favorites without the spinner thingy spinning forever!!1 
(Fingers crossed)
... Yeah, that's pretty much it.
... And actually the submission page says: "Attention extension developers: we are currently experiencing a higher than usual volume of submissions. Our team is working as quickly as possible to look at add-ons that have been selected for manual review. If your submission is selected, it may take 3 - 4 weeks for it to be reviewed. We apologize for the inconvenience."
... I seriously need to open source this thing.
See you next October! 
They are up since april. There was only one anouncement and I'm starting to feel that we could start making a regular news, every few months, which would be a reminder/instruction about some new, hidden or not so widely popular features.
Like FixelJoint browser extension for example.
Never noticed there were new "level categories". I can proudly call myself Trash now.
I finally know how to find comment boxes. I have to say something.
You have just created a need in me, which I never had before.
Speaking of lacking emotes, I feel the lack of something hiding under a blanket to express comfyness. That little pig/rat under a blanket emote on steam ruined me.
well, yeah, but that's fixeljoint. which doesn't work for me well on feuerfuchs
