Ello everyone! I'm Zach and I'm quite new to pixel art. Did quite a bit of drawing with pen/pencil/pastels back in highschool and I'm getting back into it. Thought I'd look into the digital art genre and see the sights. Pixel art caught my interest immediately! Like a lot of people in here, I started video games at an early age with the good ole NES :) Been a hardcore nintendo fan ever since.
P.S. Does anyone have a recommendation where I should start with pixel art? I mean in the aspect of Isometric art or just sketching and shading objects, etc. Edited by crooks4hire - 04 November 2008 at 6:08pm |

Hi! I foolished started a new post to introduce myself before greenraven generously pointed me in this direction... But this is what I wrote: Hi, everyone. I'm a brand spanking new member of Pixel Joint but I've been doing pixel art for a little while now. But I was reading posts in the Resources and Support forum and everyone seemed really big on people posting and getting to know each other and trying to be a community, so I thought I would just introduce myself. My name is Anne and I'm 18, and I'm weirdly nervous on this site for some reason. I've already gotten some good criticism on my stuff and I really appreciate how attentive everyone is. So, yeah. Hey.

Hello
I'm Yuji, and I am 23 years old. I am a Master's student in Computer Science in Japan. Around 4.5 years ago I started learning art for making games, but I am still not very good at it though. I will practice as much as I can and post what I draw in here! Yuji |

Hi! I'm Teresa and I am 25. I just finished my undergrad degree in art and am at that point in my life where I don't know what to do with myself. I do a lot of things but don't have a specialty yet and decided to take up pixel art. I'm also a huge MST3K fan if there would happen to be any MSTies around here.

Hi all, Bugman here! I have been doing pixel art as I have discovered it is called on and off for years now. I tend to do very small to small stuff, I find small pictures easier to get looking good as there is less room for details and hence less room for error! I guess that my wanting to get things "perfect" coming through. I also am not the most easily inspired person.
I look forward to learning and improving my skills, meeting people and enjoying others pixel art. |

Hi there!
I'm MagicKoi, I've recently joined DeviantArt. While there, I was directed here by Emlan a Deviant Artist, I am also strongly inspired by the works of AbyssWolf (known as Ahruon on these forums, I'm guessing.)
I'm not new to pixels, I've been working with them for about 4 years, I've been on and off. I originally worked with sprite rips from GBA games Fire Emblem. Now I work with a program called RPG MAKER XP, it's a video game maker.
Here I hope to learn more on how to sprite properly, my best attribute as a pixel artist is working with a reference. I hope to be able to eventually develop stronger skills in shading and light source, maybe one day without a reference. I would also love to learn how to make good tiles of all different terrains for video games too!
I hope to get a warm welcome and a lot of support! In return I hope to be active in this place and make new friends as well. Message me any time you'd like! I would really like to chat and get comfortable with the community! Don't worry I'm an easy going person.
![]() Thank you

Hi, I am Zaneeba. I'm new here, as you can plainly see.
I am 18 years old and have been "spriting" for a good couple of years. I have done some of my own sprites, but never set out to fully learn the art until recently. With a Mac and all, I couldnt really make video games, since GameMaker wasn't made for Mac. But now, since they ARE making a version for the Mac, I have decided to dedicate my time and effort on learning pixel art. I have been basically studying pixel art for... gosh... about two days. ![]() But I do already have a pretty nice looking sprite, and his head bobs up and down (Violently, because i haven't fully figured out the animation thingy majig yet.) I uh... also have done concept art for the occasional Modding game... and I have done some other art like work on rare occasions. I am just a cartoonist though, so dont expect SUPER AWESOME POWERFUL SPRITES like I've already seen here on this website. I might do some nice detail work, but that isnt until I figure out how to animate things better. |

You seem to know a lot about drawing, but you really have to learn refining and coloring. Luckily, we can teach you ;) Welcome! |

Hey everyone. Figured I should post a reply in this topic to properly introduce myself.
So, yeah. I've been stalking the site now and then for a few years, but joined up just recently. I've been into pixel art for around 8 years, on and off. Main purpose has been creating graphics and such for all my silly games I've been working on over the years. I'm very much into art in general though, been an art student for 3 and a half years and still going strong.
My main goal here is to try applying my intrest for pixel art in other areas then just game graphics. I want to make more art-like pieces. Hopefully I can get there with a bit of dedication and with the help from you guys. There will be a lot of game graphics as well though, as I tend to work on different game projects every now and then.
Well, that's about i I guess. Thanks for your time and, I'll see you around.
Ciao.

Hello! I'm TrevorCross or just call me Patrick.
I new to this forum, but I've been in the pixel/sprite game for awhile. I just have a few question before I begin. Most of my works consist of custom fanart of video game characters, but not edits. Is that acceptable? What are the boundaries? I generally do sprite sheets(I never post full ones do to stealing though), what are the views on that? That's about it... So like I said. I've been in the game for awhile, but I'm not the best. I'd like to at least believe I'm a decent artist though. I sprite characters that are of my own imagination, and well known characters. I play guitar, skateboard, and sprite(duh). Here's an idea of what I do. ![]() If I am in the wrong place, could you kindly point me in the right direction? It'd be much appreciated. Thanks and have a great day! |

Hello Trev, and welcome here!
Custom sprites of existing characters are allowed, so is the posting of sheets! However, you would not need to post sheets in 2 sizes, since we have a zoom function here :) |

I've been lurking this site for the past couple days, and decided that it would be best for me to sign up and make some friends.
My name is Jonathan. I like to -learn how to- make games, compose music, and I've just gotten into Pixel Art/Spriting, so I'm not any good...that's one of the main reasons I decided to join up. I've seen that while no one can teach me how to pixel, a lot of advice can be given from some of the members. Some of the art on here is truly epic, and really inspires me to practice and get better. I hope to see you all around the forum, make some friends, and improve my skills. =D |

I've been meaning to write up a good pixel tutorial for an eternity and a half. Still haven't gotten around to it. I'll see if I can get something done. In the short term, I'll be writing long complicated posts on color theory and such.
I'll also try getting some of my work online. I have some decent stuff.
And on the topic of tutorials, I have a list. Quite possibly the largest and most thorough list of sprite and pixel tutorials ever compiled.
That, I will be getting online as well.

A simple tutorial on color theory. I skimped on some of the pixel art. Went with a sort of knee in order to circumvent the classic ball cliche. All the stuff in the tutorial was made since you said, "Can't wait." |

Hey, I'm Shrike (I'm using an old account, so mainly you'd know me as Shrike from Pixelation even though my name says Coran), I'm 13 years old. I've gotten my only pixel training from the awesome, nice people on Pixelation, and I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil. Pixelart isn't that new, but I've been serious about it for only last two years. But I've been doing it for a while. I love art and take a lot of classes and take it seriously.
I live in the U.S. (in Illinois), and I would describe myself as tall, maybe slightly annoying, funny (in a really strange way) with dark blonde hair. Definetly a visual, intellectual sort of person. Intrests: Food, Art (Not Abstract, usually it's ugh sometimes it's good), a good laugh and a deep, interesting conversation, Animation, watching Batman The Dark Night, People, Life, Fire and Spacing Out, Dancing and Family. And maybe school. Dislikes: Complaining, Club Music (Sometimes; I like stepmania (not DDR), but almost always I prefer tribal world music), Inauthenticity, Unneccisarily Mean People, Television, Mushrooms On Pizza (I'd eat anything else), Emoness, Gothness. Cheers all, happy pixels! Shrike Edited by coran - 20 January 2009 at 8:26pm |

Hi, I'm new here
I haven't been doing pixel art since I was a teen. In fact, I haven't been drawing for ages. I'de like to thank the people that made this site possible because since I became a member, I've been drawing like crazy and frankly, I now realize how much I've missed it. So, as well as being a nice place to learn and exchange, it's a great motivational argument for me, so thanks you guys. Feel free to critique my stuff, for me, it's the best way to learn and get better. |

Hi Pixellers,
thought id put a post here, seeing as i just joined. I am 27, from UK, and been messing around with pixelart for a couple of weeks. This site is awesome, really well designed, and there is obviously a huge wealth of talent on this board. I have enjoyed looking through the previous challenges, and hope to enter some at some point. Cheers Joe |
