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 guys are cute

 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.

That's a shame, on my ff it works great!

@gawrone

well, yeah, but that's fixeljoint. which doesn't work for me well on feuerfuchs

 I think this one is sufficient enough? 

there's also no headbang icon either. sad times

I just wanted to point that there is no 'mindblown' emote on PJ (even with the Fixeljoint extention). Since it is an emotion I feel very often here, I find this very limiting to my emote vocabulary. Can we do anything about it?

The "https" solution worked on my mobile too! 

Heya, this is a very recent thing, right? Then you're having the same problem as most of us, we're working on it, but the fix for now is: Visit https://pixeljoint.com instead of http://...
 

Hey everyone. I have a small issue with the webiste:

When I am on Apple devices (PC or phone) and no matter the browser I use (I tried Opera and Firefox) I often get security warnings and page loading errors. Additionnally I cannot comment or write anything on the page anymore, as the whole typing box vanishes. At the moment I am using a friend's Windows PC with Firefox and as you can see, I can tell y'all of this.

Is this a known issue, if yes, does someone have a solution? Many thanks and happy pixeling!

I already made two of them previously and they are in the gallery.

I may try attempting cross eyed.

Ohh, you're doing colored stereoscopic? I immediately assumed crosseye. I can imagine colored is a bit more tricky with overlapping areas n such...
I look forward to see what you make, but I don't have fancy glasses :(

Unfortunately there's a lot more to it than just the layers and it's not as simple as just offsetting them. When creating  a stereoscopic image, there is a lot of cross over between the depths and that gets incredibly more complicated the more complex the image is. This is the reason I had to create the images as simple as possible, but making the images simple just for the effect doesn't make for a very interesting picture.

I had to keep putting on the glasses to make sure that the image is creating the correct effect and then, trying random pixeling to correct the image(and even then it is hit and miss). I have yet to find a reliable and efficient way of making it work.

Any other suggestions?

Hi. A few challenges ago, I tried creating and experimenting with stereoscopic images, where I had to pixel them manually which is very stressful on the eyes.

Has anyone found any techniques in creating stereoscopic images in pixel art? I wouldn't mind trying it again but involving characters animation.

I know that Pro motion has a stereoscopic tool, but that is obviously automatic.

Go for it! Many times the third installment in a franchise is a prequel ;)

Damn, the In space could work really well as a prequel :X.

oh, i was copying or dragging it from a disk, so i don't know if it is possible some hidden html is generated along the way.
anyway, i just tried to copy images from browser window and it worked just fine. 8O
thank you very much!

That's annoying!

i'm trying to update description and add other posters from the series. i either copy and paste or drag and drop the image into the description box, but in both cases i'm always getting
*** DESCRIPTION OVERFLOW *** (4000 chars max)
the image is small, it's just 3.5 kb gif. text is also short (213 characters).

interestingly enough i CAN submit either images or text but not both - unless the text is something like this: "..." .

Wow Hapiel, middle click worked. That's great, thanks for helping out :)

I have it too, could very well be fixeljoint. My solution always is to open the fav button in a new tab (ctrl + click, or middle mouse click), that way it does work.

i think it is fixeljoint related. i tried using it on firefox as well and i had same issue, so i uninstalled it.

I got an issue with adding pixes to my favourites. When I click the add fave button, it's just loading, but not adding.
I am using firefox and fixeljoint, might be that there is some problem? I have that problem since a week and it's not a temporary issue.

Oh, nevermind, already find it.

Hey everyone, anyone did find the pixel art tutorials made by Cure long time ago? Can't find any post of him on the forum

No, there is not

Hey guys.
Is there a way to reply to all comments in one comment? Meaning they all get notification when I do so.

well, i'm screwed then :D nevermind, i'll just... continue as planned and we'll see how it turns out.

Ah, that was meant regarding to typography on the poster itself. So on the poster, write as much or as little text as you want, but the title of your movie remains to be "the attack of ..." :)

hm, i must have misunderstood your reply to magickbird then.

I meant "The Attack of the awoken", I think you still have to include "the attack of" part...!

thanks guys! i will consider to leave out "the attack of" part completely :D

To me, 'awakened' sounds most natural but I'd be tempted to make it 'The Attack of the Awakened' or 'Attack of the Awakened'.

guys, i need your help, my english is not good enough to crack this. i looked it up in merriam-webster but i'm still not sure:
how am i going to put "awakening" into "the attack of [something]"?
the idea is that 'those who are not sleeping anymore' are the attackers.
- the attack of awaken
- the attack of awoken
- the attack of awakened
which one is, let's say better? to me they all seem same :D

anything that's not a whole number will cause blurring on sites that don't account for dpi

@Skeddles - Mine is also 1.25 like wakimojo. My recommended settings are 125%.

@Hapiel; Putting my settings down to 100% and leaving firefox as is, also solves the issue.

i always had this issue, but all art looks normal at 80% zoom for me too (chrome)

skeddles link shows me 1.25

does your monitor have a DPI bigger than 1? https://johankj.github.io/devicePixelRatio/

@b236

Oh - that's interesting! Google Chrome must be doing the same too.

i've found on support mozilla forum the thread in which someone states: 
"Firefox no longer uses 96 pixels per inch as the baseline zoom level. Instead, it often uses a larger baseline zoom level based on your Windows "Text Size" percentage (such as 120ppi, which is 125% of 96ppi). The fact that you get the expected size after zooming out twice, which brings Firefox's zoom level to roughly 80%, would be consistent with this theory."
but it's from 2016, so i don't know if it's relevant.
 

@SeDiceBisconte

Hmmm, not sure why the 100% doesn't work on mine.
