Hey, i'm really new to pixeling and i'd like to know something about Dithering, if I dither over the whole piece of art will that screw it up? Or will it look nice? Personally I think it'd be good to dither over the whole thing, thanks. ------------- Hey! |

Depends on the piece. Usually dithering is just meant to provide the allusion of another layer of color for shading to smoothen things out or give texture. Dithering over a whole piece doesn't sound right to me, but maybe if you posted the piece in the WIP section we'd be able to give you more help.

dithering the whole piece can add a nice texture, you should play around with some squares using different colours. |

Thanks for the help guys, I like the first one better, so i'll probably use that type of dithering.
