This collab is a bit self-explainatory, but here are some rules anyway, because I am obsessed with power.

The Almost-Ten Commandments:
  1. None shall make two following phases, there will always be someone between.
  2. Size will always be 128x128. Else they will not align properly.
  3. Thou will always use a transparent background.
  4. There can be different species evolving. Just try to keep up.
  5. Talking about keeping up, reserve a place when you're making a phase.
  6. Never mind this rule.
  7. And never mind this one too.
  8. No using BMPs. They are too big. No using JPEGs too. They look awful.
That's about it. Ah yeah, the first phase.

Maybe a little big canvas, but meh.

Seems like this hasn't been moving along very well so I gave it a try... Not much of evolvement from the previous one but I tried.

I think some people forgot to read the rules on this one:

  1. None shall make two following phases, there will always be someone between.
  2. Size will always be 128x128. Else they will not align properly.
  3. Thou will always use a transparent background.
  4. There can be different species evolving. Just try to keep up.
  5. Talking about keeping up, reserve a place when you're making a phase.
  6. No using-previous-artist's-work-edit-it-a-bit and say you've done the next one.
  7. Stealing hard parts is okay though. Just try to make it fit in your phase.
  8. No using BMPs. They are too big. No using JPEGs too. They look awful.

Especially #6... let's keep it moving folks

I'll try an attempt soon

I think rule #6 just prevents it from being a collaboration. Because in my opinion and in my vocabulary "collab" includes each person adding on new things to a piece. So if we just make a totally new piece then it's not longer a collab but more of a contest of some sort...

I did break rule #6, but it was a very heavy edit.



Following predator suit, I had to do this.

even though its not my right to do it it is pritty clear no1 like rule no,
6 it doesnt make it a colab just who can make the best evolved
version themselves, i think it should be changed to u must use the
previous evolution to base yours on, then mayby it could be made
into some kind of morph, i think more people would participate
then... so even though im not realy allowd as its not my thread... i
change rule 6!!

an heres my evolution..

Continuing off InvaderLupus's design. I welcome myself to Pixeljoint! First post ever. Not to sound stupid, but do I have to get a higher rank in order to get an avatar? Or am I missing something? Ga-harr.  Teeth and antennae at the end of his eyestalks.

If you go to the main site, you can upload your own art to your personal gallery and there is a button to set your avatar as one of your pixel pieces, or, you can use someone elses piece already up on the site.
For every second spent wondering if you can do something, you could spend 2 seconds doing it.

I've read this entire thread and noticed one big flaw:

To you guys, evolution means add another set of legs. I mean, I didn't notice any evolution at all going on between posts 3-25. All you guys did was add more legs, take legs away, add eyes, whatever. The key is to GET BIGGER, not to add more and more appendages!

I took the liberty of making another template to work off of, hopefully we can get this project started again.



slightly bigger than before, hopefully we can EVOLVE this time, not "devolve"

hate to rain on your parade, but evolve does infatc not mean "GET
BIGGER" evolving is a life form adapting to its surroundings so it can
survive better, if an extra eye means it can see better it might
evolve to have an extra eye if an extra pear of legs helps it cover
ground better then it would evolve with another pair of legs, if theres
a threat it will need to defend itself it might eveolve to have horns ect
ect, evolving is adapting to the enviroment so why cant we carry o
with the old one.... plus urs is basicly the same but not as good as in
not shaded or anything so i say we continue with the old one.....

or infact start again!!

its the simplest of things... a blob dont just go strait into a goo
monster, it can grow legs, fur scales anything, and it doesnt have to
stay green either... js go wild

Ryan: you need to get a grip dude. Check out this definition for "evolution" http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=evolution

If members want to start a new one, why stop them? I mean, you yourself started a new one and nobody bitched about it.

Also, rule #4 stated: "There can be different species evolving. Just try to keep up."

heh i shouldnt go and eat while in the middle of a piece, now i dont connect rightly anymore.. ah well..

Aeolidia Prehistoria:

after living for a couple million years next to water, as to not dry out its slime, it adapted itself to submersed life by sprouting fils and gills, and it changed its outlook to better be camouflaged amongst the plants inhabiting the river floor.

this creature , not unlike Aeolidia papillosa, feeds on plants, and the occasional creature that lives on them, is very capable of survivimg under high pressure(due to its liquidesque nature), but cannot survive in salt water.

Unfortunately, all the edible fruit on the planet became extinct, so the bug was forced to become a predator. It grew horrid sharp teeth and claws.

Sorry, I didn't intend to be sacriligous to your piece.

That's awesome, I love the way this one has modifications that make sense and it's a little less extreme between stages.
Thanks for using my arrow too. ;)

the creature got to big to fly so he/she shed their wings, now its a
land creature it needed big teeth to ward of predators. it also
needed another 2 eyes because.. *thinks* use ur own imagination.
maybe the next stage of evolution will have even more defences
