Uh, hello guys, some of you may have stumbled across my humble gallery...And maybe some of you saw me at pixelation within my...two or three topics, before I jumped out 'coz I was feeling...ashamed.Weird story.Anyway, reading the chatbox everyday for some time made me more familiar with the whole atmosphere so probably this time I'll have a greater activity.Hope I can improve something, 'coz I've been making the same mistakes for a year  >_<"

Hi people,
  I'm new to the forum although I've been doing pixel art for around 17 years (cricky, I can't be that old?), pretty much because when I started out, it was the only option! I've used neo-chrome, degas elite and dpaint on the Atari ST, DPaint on the Amiga and on the PC.  As of yesterday, I've started dabbling in Pro-Motion as my friend Andy pointed it out to me as well as this site.
  I don't find much time for art and graphics these days as I'm a full time 3D graphics programmer now for a games company in England, as well as being a Dad. I've recently spammed the gallery with a wad of my pictures, hope you all don't mind. Now I just have to prove that some of the later ones actually are pixel art :) 

It's nice to see that there are some people out there who still appreciate the old, laborious way of doing things!


I look like this:

                      

All the best,

Tim 'Luther' Lewis.

Welp my name is Timothy Thorpe aka tek40 and I've been doing pixel art for about a year. I've made a few gif animation pixel art but they have sucked. I'm getting better. The style of art I do is looks like DBZ Legendary Super Warriors for GBC. I do make background art. And I make a few comics using sprite sheets and things.

I already draw quite a bit, and its my dream to someday make game development my career, so it would seem that learning to do pixel art is a must for a man in my position. As a matter of fact, I think I'm gonna get started today... I need to make some characters for a game I'm currently trying to make.

Well, it's me, Metaru (AKA Francisco Cifuentes). i'm from Chile, South America. i'm into Pixel Art from almost... one year? well, i've made some crappy things on Ms Paint before, but nothing to feel proud of it.

in the past year, i've decided to make pixel Art my way of making and show what i can do for the world, and for me obiusly. how i realised that? dunno... as far as i remember, i was drawing a line in MS paint and then i started to see pixeated thing... and the rest is blurry...

also, as you can see, i'm not an English native speaker... isn't hard to me to chat or write about random things, but please take that into consideration in the future (please-be-gentle xD)

I hope to get as many feedback as possible, and improve with every work i post here... or at least get free stuff or anything. a free Dreamcast would be really apreciated. really.

Stupid, never posted my introduction here.

My name is Jim Jansen, and just like alot of other people here,
I'm from the Netherlands. I'm currently 15 years old, going 16 in June.

I go to high school, and I don't have a job. I'm a lazy person, and I like slacking :)

I like doing pixel art, traditional art, playing games, making games, watching tv,
playing guitar, listening to music, and just browsing the internet. I've been pixeling around 2 years now I think.
I hope I can finaly start to do a few payed pixel art jobs.

My favourite food is Japanese, but not the fish.
I know, very odd to be into Japanese food and dislike fish... I also like Chinese food.
My favourite band would be Three Days Grace.
My favourite movie is probably the Truman Show.
The best song ever is Entangles by Genesis, followed by Hotel California.

I play World of Warcraft: Arthor, level 70 holy paladin, Stormreaver EU.

EDIT: Just noticed I did post an introduction, but it sucked.

Here's me:

Awesome, my name is Martin and I'm 28. Wow! I'm glad to have stumbled upon this great community. I live in the mountains up here in Canada. Great place in the winter for skiing/boarding and a great place in the summer for the chicks, the lakes, and other wonderful outdoor possibilities. Oh, did I mention the chicks are hot in the summer here?

I've actually been in game design for quite some time now, mostly as a hobby of course. But I have started a small game project in the pixel art fashion, so hopefully things go well there.

All in all, I'm glad to have joined this community, and hopefully I'll get to some pixeling myself as well.

Hello All,

My name is Martin Eijmans (M.E.) and I am using my 100th post
to introduce myself a little bit.
As so many here, I'm from Holland, The Netherlands.
I'm at the moment 42 which makes me one of the oldies here.
Luckilly there are some young people here that still can teach this old man something!!!
I live with my [even older!]  girlfriend who has two children (25,27), one
of them is still living at home.
I have worked with computers over 20 years now. At the moment as a
sysadm.
I've been lucky to be able to attend a part-time art-school for three
years which enriched my life.

I like to program and have made several games. The biggest project
started 7 years ago, which is still the main project I am working on.
There have been three versions of the game. The last one received
some nice game-play comments but it was burned to the ground
graphics-wise.

That is the reason I was looking (and now found) a nice community
who is willing to teach/help me with my game graphics.


So, to all of you:  Thank you for being here!


Kind regards from

M.E.

Hello, I figured it's about time to stop lurking and start participating.

I've used gamemaker for quite some time now, and after I got Scruffs into it and he weened more into pixelart we sort of became a duo. Since then as he's become more involved I couldn't help but become entranced and started working on my pixel skills as well. I can't say they're that good now but I've got a life ahead of me to learn. :)

I'm an administrator over at the GameMaker Showcase, but unfortunately GMforums seem to be dealing with great inactivity and relatively winding down. I think I'd prefer the relatively more mature environment of a pixel forum, so what better place to start than here. :)

I'm 16, hail from US of A.  DJ got me into gamemaker and pixel art and my love for pixels took off from there.  Been pixeling for 2 and 1/2 years or so.  Hope to break into the industry eventually, but for now enjoy pixeling, drawing, and game design as hobbies.  I go by Jake, JWW, Scruffs, and occasionally cupcakes(no not really(well maybe))
 
Would love to collaborate with some artists on here, so look DJ and I up on aim : D

Well I made my own thread like a noob, f**king up and gaining speed fast I guess....
 
But anyways, I'll just post here what I posted there:
 
So whats going on?

I just recently found this website through some searching and over the past couple of days I've been admiring some of the incredible artwork on here. It's really amazing. You should see how much sh*t is on my chair just seeing some of the stuff on here.
 
So I registered and made an account and thought I'd drop into the forum and say hi.
 
Anyways, I used to think I kicked a little ass working with pixels but apparently after seeing stuff by guys like Fool and FrankieSmileyShow, I realized...
 
I SUCK!
 
I used to (and still kind of do) play an online game on PS2 called Tribes: Aerial Assault, I played for about 4 years online with a small community of about 1,500 players. Real fun stuff when you know everyone who plays the game... Anyways, I used to make all my sigs in MsPaint on the forums and It started there. So i have a little bit of stuff, and the one I'm most proud of I made in 04' for a buddy by the name of I B KILLIN U (Real swanky name huh?), one of the only good friends worth staying up countless hours at night animating by hand. Anyways, here it is:
 
 
Pretty lame right? Well back in the day on the TAA forums I was known as a "Paint God". But after checking out this site I'm more of a "Paint Fluffer".
 
I have a bunch more Tribes related artwork, I'd be happy to post more if I don't get pooped on for being a noob. (EDIT: currenlty covered)
 
So I really like this site, theres alot of great artwork and the challenges are pretty nifty, I'd lose my mind trying to participate seeing as I only have MSPaint. I used to have Animation Shop 3 which is how I made that one up there, but It was deleted with a very sh*tty frying of my harddrive about 6 months ago.
 
But I'd really like to get back into it, I haven't made anything in a long time (Last time I made something it was for Maddox when he was asking people to send in artwork, I might be able to find it, it was pretty cool) and I'd love to get back into it, also considering the fact that I just enrolled into ITT for Multimedia (Drafting and Design) and it'd be great to get the ol' mouse click clackin' and color swappin' again.
 
So a little more about me... I like drawing, I like GWAR, I love music, I love Guitar Hero (I'm a wicked ass fool on that game by the way), and also, don't mind the name, I'm not a wigger or anything, it was my name on an old PS2 online game called Frequency, it just kinda stuck with me since then, Also my left testicle kind of hurts a bit right now... Don't know why.
 
But yeah, thought I'd drop by and tell everyone my life story. So how's it hanging?

I realize I never introduced myself 
Hi, I'm Marina, and hail from the lovely country of Canada...
I don't think you want to read the boring details of my life, so I'll just give some pixel-related information .   I've been computer colouring for some time, although it was all cel-style until relatively recently, when I started to "paint".  I started pixelling a little last year when I joined the AGS forums (you can download a short game I worked on here ), but only started trying to do it more seriously (ie with aa and all that good stuff) when Buloght convinced me to join PJ earlier this year.  I am now hooked!

I use Photoshop and a Wacom tablet to pixel.

I have a tendency to use too many smilies

I guess that pretty much covers it!
