Meh, I'm not willing to do a large intro right now.... Hi, I'm Name, and even though the... username is odd, I use it on most/all forums and games I use, so I kinda claimed the name... Name. I have allways been into pixel art as a child, and drew some with it, but it never looked good, so I only did it for fun, like make snow men, and such. Around... 7 I started to do simply free hand drawings of stickmen, and I even made a little comic for fun and laughs with my friends, but it never improved my art skill. Earier this school year, (september) I met new friends who drew art, but mostly manga and they were all more advanced than me.
Don't ask how but I just resently relised "Hey! Shading is needed!" and I noticed all my previous work had no, and I mean NO, shading. I started to draw again, and I'm frusterated with the large amout of work, and mostly the erasing. If I had to erase another mistake, I would of destroyed the closes person to me, and it happend to be one of my friends who was freaked out because I was foaming at the mouth as I tried to draw a darn straight line.
I then discover the wonderful world of pixel art.
Not only is making lines easier, I can erase cleanly! Better yet, I could switch colours out when I wanted! Then I also found out something you can't do with normal art.
You can make it move!
Well, with my art history aside, I am a 15 year old male in school, and currently a non-experienced pixel artist. Before you say "oh another one!" I think I am learning fast, seeing as I am getting shading down.
Oh, and I somehow just love how this smilely looks!
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() it makes it look happily proud!

Ok, allow me to introduce myself. I go by the name Alex (Alexander) by birth right. My alias is Horus. I've always been a vivid fan of pixel art. It was always an interest to me, and I thought at one point and time I would have the patience to get into it indepth. That was 3 years ago. I'm now 17, and I think it's about time. Currently in a learning phase so any advice is welcome. I just hope to gradually improve over time, and hope to meet a lot of unique people, and artists. Thank you. P.S - I've always liked the feel of centered text. ![]() Edited by Horus - 23 June 2009 at 5:29pm |

Hi, I'm altagu.
I'm from Vancouver, Canada. I was a member here by the name of Silent Sniper, I created a new account because shortly after I left, I pissed off Ensellitis and he suspended my forum membership (I'm pretty sure it was him). If admins/mods see this post, and feel I violated any dupe account rules (are there any?), then I ask please to delete my former account. Anyways, I'm back, not an asshole, with some fresh new pixel art on the way. |

Hey guys!
My name is Lissa, I'm 19 years old, and my growing interest in pixel art made me join the pixel joint, because there's just a lot of really talented artists here, and I needed inspiration. I hope I can be as good as them someday! I'm a graphic design student but my true passion is game design, and pixel art just... makes me happy! Well, and that's it! ![]() |

Nothing easy... really. Just start making sprites of all kinds after reading the basic tutorials. You'll pick things up automatically over time. Don't be afraid to share your works even if they look like total crap, everyone starts somewhere.

18 and starting college soon, yikes. If defined as "putting down each pixel by hand," then I'm not exactly new to pixel art (since 2004 I did it), but it's not like I'm super awesome or anything. I come here to learn! Pixel art is a hobby I wish to get better at, because sucking...sucks. Majors? Mine is to be graphic design as well...my actual passion, I think. n.n |

Hi All, My name is Jason although most people call me Jay. As for the account name I was tired and added the .com by accident...oops. Grafiki is like, well, graphics which i mixed with graffiti, and mon just because I'm Jamaican so thats how the name evolved. Its always fun to hear people try to pronounce it on xbox live.
I love pixel art but never tried it myself...that is until I picked up RPG Maker and it was full of sprites that were almost what I wanted so I it finally drove me to try to make my own. Now I am hooked! When I am not working on Pixel art I am doing 3D, Flash or trying to learn guitar.... damn giant fingers...grrr.... lol Jay Edited by grafikimon.com - 31 July 2009 at 6:09pm |

Uhm... I guess I'll introduce myself, why not.
I'm Sarah~ There are a heck of a lot of pseudonyms I'll respond to, but the easiest would be Neko, Sarah, and ekobor. Uhm... I'm from Canama-- Canada, I said Canada >.> ... Ontario to be more specific. I'm 17, at this point in time... I've been working with pixels since... oh wow, uhm... 1998 or so... I didn't get into game arts, sprites or anything fancy until about '02 though. Since then I've worked on and off on sprites. Mostly Mega Man 7 style, thanks to good ol' Bob and George. I was recently brought back to the light of sprites by a friend, though RMXP. That lead me to Eclipse, which lead me other places, which lead me here~ The sexay fineness of the artworks here has made me drool to the point of near drowning, so I thought I'd give some bigger projects a try, with my past experience as a bounding board~ As you prolly didn't read any of that, I s'pose I'll just say this: I'm a long winded person. =P |

Hello people, I am Xamllew. I am 17. I joined Pixel Joint because I was recently browsing some of the pixel art over at DA and it gave me a strong feeling of nostalgia and excitement more than regular paintings do. I'm a total newbie to pixel art but I draw large somewhat detailed scenes frequently in MS Paint (lawl) and sometimes in GIMP, I've been doing digital painting for about a year, it's basically all I do on my PC, that and talk to my pals.I like drawing machinery, adventurous scenes, war scenes, creepy faces, and other misc. stuff.

Hi all. I'm Jedi, aka Simon.
I typically hang out in the Kongregate art forums, but they have been really quiet, with mostly the same few people posting, so now I'm here for pixel art :D I would rate myself 6/10 at pixel art, I'm not terrible, but I'm not great. I hope to improve while I spend my time here. I also am a comic artist, and have a webcomic :D Youtube My webcomic |

Hello
I wasnt sure where to post this if it is in the wrong section sorry ![]() I just discovered about these forums today, and i think they are absolutely amazing some of the work i seen here is phenomenal. But i am not an artist i am a programmer, currently my team and i have spent the last year designing a 2d morpg engine that is free for use to anyone. We launched our new forums couple of weeks ago and our community has grown very rapidly since, we dont have many artist no the forum so most of the people there use rpgxp tilesets and sprites, if any of you guys would like to check us out and maybe even have your work in a successful game here is the link. http://devogeninteractive.com/forum/index.php I am not trying to advertise i am trying to build a relationship between two communities. We probably have some people willing to pay for your services, so both of our communities will benefit from one another. I would like to hear from you guys your questions, thoughts ext.. Thank you for your time. |

Hello everyone. I'm Camera. Free Camera. Just thought I'd introduce myself here on the forums, though I won't be posting much. I'm a university student in Alberta, Canada, studying all kinds of goodness.
Really passionate about art, my notes are absolutely littered with doodles. Pixel art's just another venue for me to have a little fun. My style's a bit silly, like I am, but I'm hoping to sharpen my skills while I'm here, after all if there's a way to practice color theory, it's through pixel art! |

*I did not know this thread existed*
AHEM, my name is Adam. I am 3/4 of the way through an aerospace engineering degree but find myself less and less interested in it, I have become more and more interested in design (of which pixel art is a facet) so my life is a bit of a silly mess at the moment! I have an art blog, which can be found here if you feel like a bit of a read: http://stylepixelstudios.blogspot.com My ultimate dream would be to have my own design company, or at least have it up and running and generating some revenue. That would be rad! some ways yet but little by little :) |

I'm not too sure of who all comes here, but out of those I know come here, I know Dex. I joined because he's always posting WIPs for challenges from here. Thought they might be fun to try out. I've been spriting for about a year now. I'm nothing compared to a lot of you guys, but I'm getting better. Fez~ |
