Hello,

not to moan or complain, just curious why my submission got rejected? I uploaded a iso3d version of a DDR machine (I nice one I thought :P) So, the message stated it got rejected and I should maybe post it in the WIP part of the forum??

It was in .png, good transp.background, so: what did I miss? I did upload a first one, which then I noticed, the background wasn't good BUT I found that I could submit a revision while it was in the admission phase.

Anyway thanks, I really like the art displayed here on PixelJoint, so I hope I can be part of it in the future.

Grtz. DiMarzio.

Was the preview the same as the full image? Coz the preview is full of artefacts and has a whopping 2424 colors...probably coz it was saved as a JPEG at some point. It also seem to have automated (24bit) gradients.
Pictures that has been "processed" like that is not considered pixelart at PJ.

Well, true, it had problems which I removed. And when i made it, I did save it as jpg indeed. Socwhen I read the rules I converted it to png for transparency and sorts. I truly made it pixel by pixel but not with 2424 colors LOL. I'll clean it up and double check to be safe.

My apologies! I found my old .psd :) And you were right, the gradients on the side are too smooth. The rest is done by hand as I said. Anyway, I will correct it (as it should be) and submit again :) Thanks.
