( maybe it going to be some pay after publishing if game get some success,but no guaranties about that )

Sounds good though if you want something "published" to act as an example for future work.
EDIT: I don't like the fact that there isn't a website or any organisation name mentioned. :/
Team name:
N/A

It also seems strange that he's asking for people who haven't had past experience.

Im asking for ppl who haven't experience on creating gfx for mobile phone ( experienced artist in this field wont work just for credits,cause they are already credited on previous games ),but the artist who want to create gfx for this game must have good pixel drawing skills ,  I'll guide him/her throught making gfx for mobile phone games under thechnical restrictions... He/Her will learn every thing involved on mobile games GFX production,and get his foot in this industry's door for futur oportunities with a published game title  .

This is the best opportunity to get a job in the future as a pixel artist for mobile games , as you can see ,every mobile pixel artist openings request for atleast 1 published title for artist wanting to join...

 

Thx

Well there are oportunities for people with good pixel skills and no mobile dev experience to work for real
developer company for real money.

(CSP-Mobile did recruit around. They are dead now, but there are other who will get you into the mobile specific stuff no-problem if you have good pixel skills and pay you for the work.)

Again this seem to me really like somebody want to fool you and profit on that.

I don't see what's wrong with informing people and I agree with Riva.
It appears as though you just want to profit from other people's work.

simply dont respond if you dont like it for any reason or you feel someone wants to fool you

I didn't edit the post...as you can see my post ( the third one ) , is last edited at 12:22pm and created at 12:13 while your post was created at 12:38 , same thing for my other posts...So please stop the crap and be fair in your judgments next time.

This is my offer for ppl who want to take it . Please contact me or just reply right here If you feel interest to make gfx for this game,for just being credited on the game splash screen , the game's web site,and to include it in your protofolio, thanks.

Mama!: This is a community website. If you're offer were more reliable and realistic than you wouldn't be so harshly scrutinised by other members, who are well within their right to do so. Personally I think it is great that people will offer there opinions, especially if they have past experience in the professional pixelling business. A good offer would stand up to any scrutiny, and you'd find yourself less contestested by the general public.

I do not wish to discourage you from making any future serious pixelling job offers, just understand that the people WILL judge you.

iSTVAN : I accept honnest critics ... but saying : "You'r suck" or "You want to fool ppl" is not honnest at all,it's like someone's holding grudges for me,the question is why? Is that personal or they'r just generalizing...After all , It's a common thing that ppl work for credits , now isn't that true?

Thanks.

"It's a common thing that ppl work for credits" - I believe it isnt. Not on commercial project. Not if they are as good as you require.

If you can accept newbies in pixel art and teach them all they need to meet your requirements (and not only some mobile dev tricks you promissed), then its maybe worth making one game gfx for you for free or for just a small share.

Anyway you will not look very trustworhty if you dont give any informations about you, your company or company you work for or at least your previous works.

Let's get this clear Mr Riva : This is not the right opportunity for you if you'r looking for a paid job , you can go to gamedev.net/job , gamasutra/job or Gameloft web site ,they are always looking for experienced artist such as you ...This is for artist who dont have experience in video games like you have  ,and who want to get credited on a published mobile game title as a start. You prooved your point ,so let people decide by themselves.

From they way you have conducted yourself, you are prooving to be very unprofessional.  There is no way I would even begin to consider doing work for you.  If it wasn't for the being unprofessional, it would be for the lack of any information of any kind towards the project/company.  No one in their right mind would take on a job blind.

wow i aint never seen this many quotes in one thread. firstly Riva
has all the right to put his opinions forward, and as istvan said if this
is a legit offer you wouldnt be worried about people's comments, you
seem to be all defensive as if your guilty about someting. there
doesnt seem to be much interest in this offer any way.

Blah blah blah    , anyway , this not the first forum I've posted this offer on , and not the first game someone will make gfx for just credits... We'r all going to get some profits : game owner and artist as well ... This offer still stands for interested open-minded artists . I will not argue with you little children anymore.

Thanks for nothing .

Your problem is that you're looking for uninformed and overly-trusting people who you haven't found on this forum.

Thanks for being the nice guy in this forum  , as for the answer to your question : yes , Im sure,it's not my first game,I'v already made a cool game wich will be published at the end of this year (when the publisher will start his portal). online demo is available but I cannot give the url to anyone who request it,I have to make sure the artist is serious and realy interested...Im working now on another game (it's not my own,my role is just coding,the publisher provided me with the design doc and all needed GFX,and it's about to be finished) , I'v started designing the game I want artist for since 2 months ago , and the game engine is already there,so it is a pice of cake  .

Thanks.

No problem.  It's more constructive then ripping someone to shreds...  you know?  I try not to be on the offense when I come on here (unless it's gameloft, haha)...  That's just how a lot of people are, though.  Easy kills, man.  Welcome to the real world...

If you're really serious about a profesional game design career, you'll probably be dealing with more and more situations like this before things actually take off.  The best thing you could do would be to practice keeping a level-head, and make sure your wording and everything would check out with everyone. 

Good luck on your project, both of you.

I think I should give a little explanation, perhaps an apology, here.

I offten browse Jobs sections on various servers and forums and when I come to something I dont have a good feeling about - like here - I just remember how lost I was (and at occasions still em) in the business, the trouble I ren to, and that nobody was willing to share any experience with me.

And since I care about you pixel-people and see there is a lot of young a\o unexperienced people around (At least younger and less experienced then me. I dont say Im a master in this, no way.) I try to help, offer my advice, warning, give idea of other (better?) opportunities. Thats what I did with my 1st post.

Im not telling people what they should do.
Im not waging war or have anything personal against anybody here.

Of course my cc of somebodys offer \ business may anger the person, but hey - if you feel you are right in what you do, give arguments and informations that will proove you are right and trustworthy.
If somebody start to act like 'Mama' did, telling me to buzz off, instulting me and others, and telling other to ignore what I say, then it only seems more and more like I am (we are) dealing here with pigged off kid, not a trusty adult person or company.

So the apology goes to forum mods and ppl - I really didnt want to insult anybody or start a flame.

I write this so long to say and explain it once and for all. Thnx for 'hearing' me ;)

PS: I am 28 years old and I am working professionaly (= its my job) as computer graphic and animator for 6+ years now. I have my own small company for ousourcing of computer gfx and mutimedia.
