 | Friend @ 7/1/2017 09:01 commented on Incommunicado it is a beautiful piece, but I feel less controlled pixels have been rejected many times over for that very reason. I like breaking the mold as much as the next guy, but where others have been declined, you seem to get a free pass to do so

 | Friend @ 6/1/2017 06:04 commented on Distribution station it's like across the whole image but it only happens mostly at 1x view. It almost looks like it has bilinear filtering. At 2x this blur effect mostly disappears. The only places that dont look bilinearly filtered at 1x to me are the blue laser beams. I think what you might have going on is a strange kind of banding with straight lines of darkening hues around brighter colors that emulates filtering and the eye perceives it as blurry at 1x. but at 2x it looks great. Maybe play with reducing and or tweaking the colors. Maybe slightly brighter base colors would lessen the blur effect? dunno

 | Friend @ 2/2/2016 11:58 commented on Ambassador Of Happiness too much of the detail in the face seems to be causing banding :/ the result is it looks messier than it is on the pixel level. prettty cool though :)

| | Friend @ 1/27/2016 14:45 commented on Big Bird but this is a PIXEL ART site. so we already know what the gallery is for. and when a hybrid pixel is not accepted where any pure piece is, it automatically creates an unspoken dichotomy of pure vs hybrid with pure on top. which is a problem.

| | Friend @ 1/27/2016 14:30 commented on Big Bird i think you missed my point :/ i dont think in any way do you personally categorize hyybrids as inferior. just that they are not accepted into the gallery and that they are not considered "pure" leads to an inferior connotation.
|
|---|
| | Friend @ 1/27/2016 14:01 commented on Big Bird but the sight is already skewed towards ppure because it is what the gallery displays, even if you can link the hybrid. this and the word pure itself paints hybrids as inferior when we have established is not the case

| | Friend @ 1/27/2016 13:53 commented on Big Bird how about strict vs mixed pixel art? mixed could refer to mixing of tools, the mixing effect it has on the pixel level, while not being pejorative.
strict pixel art refers to strict tools and generally includes stricter restrictions. while strict is more negative in connotation than mixed, i think it is balanced by the fact the it is in a way better tied to the essence of the medium, which focuses heavily on restrictions
also, because there is no sense of which is "better" between strict and mixed, both can live in perfect harmony without one needing to be better. it would also mean the label is unimportant, which also means that we can actually label what is strict or mixed based on actual tools used in the process, and not the somewhat arbitrary difference in end result.
it would then be easy to come up with a quantitative list of what tools are allowed to be considered strict and which tools automatically lead to it being mixed
