Hi guys, A couple of weeks ago while surfing the web for kendo-information I stumbled upon a site wich had awesome graphics. I did not know what it was called but it resembled old computergraphics. ANyway, today I made some internet searches and found ut about pixel-art. I decided I wanted to learn more so I drew my first self portrait ever. I understand it looks completely lousy too you, but I was hoping to get some pointers to what I can do to improve. Feel free to edit the picture if you want to. The picture is supposed to be me, in my grey hoodie w red university text, my thin black knit hat, and my brown pants and white sneakers. Thanks for your help! http://www.theimagehosting.com">  /David |

Hi David, welcome! Your image is quite amazing for a first piece work. A forum hint, you don't have to upload an enlarged version of your picture within this forum, because I think sedge added a feature. You just can click on an image to enlarge it. Although your image is quite nice, I think there a some common ways to improve it.
Colors in my version: 13  ------------- http://iso.webmonk.de">  http://cc.webmonk.de">

One more Q, What is the best way to add small animations? For example making the mouth of the picture move. Cant get it to work in Graphics Gale David |

Mh, I don't use Graphics Gale, but they say you can make animations with it. I worked with microsoft gif animator, ulead gif animator and ImageReady. The workflow was always the same, you have to make different frames and get them organized. ------------- http://iso.webmonk.de"> http://cc.webmonk.de">
