Hi! I'm Kris, 17 yo - registered here because I wanted to get in better touch with the world of pixel-art and pixelartists. I've been creating graphics for a project that's still in progress, and also practicing my pixelart by frankenspriting and editing sprites of an oldschool MMORPG called Tibia for my own private-server.

I'm looking forward to improve, collaborate, and join more projects after I finish my current ones. I'd really like to make a career in designing graphics for games. Except pixelart, I also do a lot of other design, like album covers or game title screens/logos.

Here's some of my recent work, still working on the pond tileset though!

I go by many names. Lord_Lucien, Bcadren, Male Gardevoir, pixelicdarkmatter...I'm a general artist, have a heavier lean towards photography, 3D modeling and Tech art (renderer and animation programming); and a general game and applications programmer and designer. Never made pixel art that wasn't current pokemon style and save literally my single newest piece; I think all of that I've done in this field is terrible. Here for multiple reasons including improving my own pixel art; looking for insight on some applications projects I'm working on.

Hello, my name is Kalyn, I'm relatively a newbie at pixel art but I'm hoping to get better at this great art form. I just entered my first contest, the tentacle contest. Nice to be here and meet everyone!

Greetings pixel members of the Joint.

I've been a native of places such as Pixelation and TSR for quite a few years back. For some reason (I suspect lazyness), I never took the time to register and come here and partake on the beautiful site and souls that inhabit it..

Well, now I do.


HELLO GUYS
*Waves excited like a little boy*

Hey everyone, I'm probably the youngest member here (14yo), haha. I came here to get some feedback on my pixel art (Just started, like, yesterday.). This is a pretty nice and friendly community, I'll stick around. :D

o/ Hello, I joined a few days ago. This is my greeting to the forums, I don't talk much, but I like to listen/read. I think those are called lurkers? Not really one here yet, hope to be one for this forum soon. Might start after submitting this.

Oh, I also pixelate. Sometimes. Used to do it more, trying to get more into it.

Hi everybody! My name's Karissa and I'm new to pixel joint! I just joined yesterday, but have been lurking/browsing the website for about a week now. This seems like such a welcoming community, I wanted to be a part of it.

I think pixel art is absolutely stunning. I've seen some of the artists on here and I was blown away n.n ; My love of side scrollers and platformers has given me a desire to attempt creating some sprites of my own!

Anyway, I look forward to learning about the world of pixel art and meetin' and greetin' new friends along the way!
    

Call me Ryan.

I'm a university student at Nevada State in Las Vegas, formerly from California.

By day I'm an enigmatic, aloof, easily distracted african-american male who enjoys both classical music (of the baroque era) and dubstep amongst other things with an addiction to cheese (Especially Mozzarella).

By night however, I'm an asshole wannabe philosopher with great ambition for himself and his art work, who's quick to anger and even quicker to start spouting pretentious bullsh*t if given the opportunity.

I wouldn't say I'm a "bad" guy but I am a pragmatist. You do for me, I do for you. Golden rule and all that jazz.

I've lurked around pixel joint for a while, at least three years but I've only just registered a day ago with this being my second post here so far.

Above all else, I enjoy great artwork and this place has it in droves. I'd like to get to know most of you, but you'll find me wandering off from time to time. Hopefully I'll find my little niche in this place somewhere.

See you around folks.

Hello everyone! People type my name as byth but they call me Sam.

Anyway, I'm a Junior at Wayne State University going into Education for English and Social Studies (and perhaps Biology). I'm a wannabe game maker and pixel artist, and so far I've released two games, both very similar. The newer one, which does not feature any proper pixel art that I drew, is Infinite Squid Slayer. I want to learn, and get good enough that my art can at least be useful on opengameart if not eventually to me.

Hi. my name is Eric Kinkead! I make pixel art and have been for a long time. my head is pixel in NBA Jam arcade coin-op. lol. My interactive website www.erickinkead.com

Hello.

Also this topic vanished. >_<

Hello, I'm Léonard, I'm French to. I'm nice to meet you all and descover a great web site to practice my passion.

See you

Hey everyone,
long time lurker finally stepping out of the shadows ;)
Simon aka Seminus.

Currently I'm doing pixel art fulltime for our current game Halfway.
You can find details here if you like: Robotality

I hope to join some challenges in the future and have some cool discussions here. Even as my free time is limited atm. ;)

Here is some images from the work I'm doing on our game. (Johan Vinet is doing the characters and I do the rest.)

Hey there all the new people. Nice to meet you and enjoy your stay. 

And Seminus, your game looks pretty amazing. Good luck with it. And once it's finished you can get a little extra exposure by submitting it as a news item. Again, good luck with it, looks great.

Hey everyone,
My name is Jan, 16, from Germany. I started pixel punching some months back but on a very unregular basis and also with almost no skill, because i cant draw, so my motives are somewhat lame *super sad face*. I hope that i can improve my skills on here, brilliant site.

Hello,

I'm Tanny and currently love painting. I've always loved pixel art so when I found the Pixaki app for the iPad I bought it and had a go.

I've only played around with the app so far and it's great. However, I need read up some more on techniques before I began a piece.

Hi! My name is DuDzy. I'm new to making pixel and I want improve my noobish skills in pixel art ^_^

Hi everyone,
my name's Pascal and I'm from Germany. I've been doing isometric pixel art before for a site called pixel-plaza, but I somehow stopped 4 years ago. Too much work and university stuff. Anyway recently I started getting back into the scene and I really would to do some non isometric stuff. I hope to get some advice and I'm looking foreward to discuss with you guys!

Hey all, I'm Magikarp, 19, from Australia. I'm a video game fan and a retro enthusiast, and I've been trying to dabble in all sorts of stuff between programming and composing.

My attempts at pixel art all turned out terribly though, so I guess I'm here to try and improve ^^;

Hey Everyone!
I'm Phraktol, 28 year old graphic designer living in california. I've always had a fascination with Pixel art (Being a gamer from the NES/SNES era) and have always wanted to learn to do it, but never really found the drive until recently.

A friend and I are working on early stages of developing a large scale RPG that will mimic SNES style in many ways, and I figured the best way for me to get better at pixelling was to just jump right in and challenge myself.

I found the weekly challenges to be good motivation and will continue to enter them. I love collaboration also, so I have been trying to work on a piece for the ISO-dead people collab here on the forums.

Most of my graphic design relates to Logos, Flyers and the like. I work primarily with Electronic Music producers. feel free to have a look at my designs On my Facebook Page

I also produce electronic music (Dubstep, Drum and Bass, ect) Feel free to have a listen to my music here

So far I love the community here on PJ, and have found tons of useful resources and tutorials which have been very helpful in developing my skills thus far, and the way i see it, theres no where to go but up!

Thanks to the owners of the site, for providing a wonderful community experience and a nice place for newcomers to develop their abilities!

Sup! I'm LunchPolice, a 17 year old spriter from New Zealand. I've already submitted a few pixel works to the gallery but I thought I should introduce myself here too.
I have to say, visiting Pixel Joint is extremely humbling. There's SO much talented work to learn from around here. If there was ever a website worth studying as an artist, it's Pixel Joint. I dunno if I'll be an active community member but I do plan on submitting any new pixel stuff I make! Hopefully I can give simple critique to some of the non-demi-god spriters around here too. See you 'round.

Hey, i'm Jorge, 18 years old from Panama. I enjoy making simple pixelart, im not that good but im practicing a lot.

Hello all the wonderful new people. Hope you're doing well. 

You're already posted in the chatterbox. Ritual complete with flying colors.

Welcome. I can't wait to see some of your stuff!
