This is a pixel art dictionary i thought would be good for newbs,even tho i might not know everything could somem admins add everything i have forget or got wrong.
 
  • Pixels - They are the little things that make up your screen
  • Pixel art - Art that is made by limited amount of colors pixel by pixel
  • Dithering - A type of shading that is chequred to save colors
  • Pillow shading -
  • Isometric -
  • Contrast - It is the difference between two colors if some says you need more contrast between shades you need to make the darks darker and the lights lighter.

As you can see i don't know the right words for explaining Isometric or pillow shading and i think i may of missed some things out so please say.
