Ah, sorry. I forgot anti-aliasing was a term outside of photoshop. I checked out the tutorial and now I've been partly de-noobified. I think I'm going to stick to not using it with this particular style since my goal is not to hide the edges but glorify them. lol. It's something to keep in mind for the future though. Thanks again.

1- you don't need to re-submit, just edit and update.

2- I'm not sure what you mean. Your convictions seem to be the same as PJ's, whichever software is used. I was not suggesting any automatic anti-aliasing or filtering, only pixel-by-pixel hand work. So yes, you could improve it, I think. This tuto by cure might help you see how. But again, if the non-AA style is your deliberate choice, just ignore me!

The feet are a bit big, thank you for pointing that out. I was eager to make an avatar and in my haste I neglected a few other details as well. I'm going to edit and re-submit it. As for the old-school style, I am bound to that by my own convictions. I'm only allowed to use MS Paint. lol. But, is there a way I could make it better just by adding/subtracting pixels? What do you think? Thanks.

I like the dynamism, and the old-school feel.

The feet are massive, but it's not necessarily a problem.

The inside outlines could look much better with some anti-aliasing (at the risk of losing the oldschoolness).
