2 hours is crazy! It always takes me forever to go in and clean everything up and add details and stuff. Do you have any process advice for doing that quicker?

Wow! Super cool! I love your use of the limited palette from the challenge, you managed a lot of detail with very little.

Wow, this is a great read! I never considered all the nuance with "pixel perfect", and there was some cool technical info in there too.

Woah this is really really cool. It feels like the skull is peaking out of a fuzzy television almost. You did the tetris prompt in a really cool way!

Really cool abstract tetris piece. Feels like an old mosaic tile artwork.

WOW. Amazing and wonderful piece. The use of color here is incredibly and theres so much detail. This is a really good piece to show how far you can take pixel art as a medium. Definitely going to add it to my list of pixel art to show people when I want them to see pixel art as something more than just old game sprites. Really incredible work, and probably one of my favorite pixel art pieces ever now!

I returned back here recently, and returned to pixel art in general recently, and it's been great. Really sad that Pixelation forums aren't up anymore though, I learned so much from those forums that influenced my art a lot. I hope someday twitter and social media bs dies off and people return to places like this and pixelation. Forums are really great, at the very least better than social media. 

I joined this community when I was in middle school and now I'm in college pursuing a degree in animation. I definitely wouldn't be here if it weren't for the community. Pixel art was my foundation and start into art as a whole, and it always has a special place in my heart. The forums and stuff helped me through some bad times, and I'm grateful.

I just wish the community was more active now. It would be really nice to hand down a lot of the knowledge I've learned in my journey, along with what I've learned from other pixelartists, to new and aspiring pixel artists. To help others like I was once helped.

Anyways, PixelJoint is cool and I hope that this website continues to exist.

Wonderful work! I love the colors. Background design is fittingly fancy as well.

I think based on my schedule I might end up being a week late to each of the challenges . Ah well, I'm just doing it for fun anyways. I have some plans for what I want to do next though...

I wish that you could pause gifs in pixeljoint because I really want to go through this frame by frame and study them to see what makes this look so good.

Well, I am a kid, and I love pixels! The reason why I like them, is because I think it is cool how you can use pixels, these squares, and create stunning images. I am not very good at pixel art, but I try to be good. I look up tutorials, and videos. I personally think that pixel art won't die
