Pixel Art
Thursday, January 30, 2003 by SuperheroCanadian | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Now most skin designers know what im talking about because each part of a skin is made almost pixel by pixel.
Im just curious on the opion of it on these boards, because im making a wallpaper, based on pixel art, its gonna be interesting. And while ive been away, ive been studting the art of the "pixel".
Whats ur opinion?

art of the pixel, huh?
now that would be one laong period of time painting a wall one pixel at a time.
My finger would probably fall off from all the clicking.

SHC, I just have to say.. Your nuts doing a wall by pixels. Because if you look at the most common resolution of 1024x768 that gives you 786,432pixels
800x600 is 480,000 pixels.. Now that is alot of pixels to work with and alot of time. But if your up to it. Be my guess. I'm just giving my opinion.

Weaksid, we ain't talking about doing the entire wall pixel by pixel, bro'
Just certain sections you gotta get down in there and do little adjustments to....
sometimes, that's what you gotta do if your vision tells you to!

u oretty much just start with an outline, quite complicated in this case, next u paint bucket everything, then it gets down and griity as u shade everything pixel by pixel, were talk about 100,000 pixels or more for shading.

I'm talking about getting into the almost finished piece and doing post-op work on a pixel by pixel level....

at what resolution are you speaking of doing this at?
and what is the dimension of a pixel in this instance?
I'd end up looking like Marty Feldmon all bug eye
Though it isn't any different than what we used to do with gel-pens really... point by ever loving point...

Essentially my skins and walls and LS-themes are 'pixel-by-pixel' works....[not counting my 'Lost in Bryceworld', of course].
Comes from a history of 'manual' art/graphics, and moving on to 'faking' or intricate 'cut-and-paste'...

im not doing a normal resolution (1280x960) would take too long, im doing it at 1024x768, my moniter is really good at keeping my eyes, flat panel laptop, so i dont have to get too close to see what im doing.

My first computer was a freebie, a 1995 Macintosh Performa 630CD, 8MB ram, 250MB HD running System 7.5.5. I still have it and use it. It has a cool game called Meteor Storm, one of the few that would actually run on so little ram. Anyway,I ran across a windows preskinned prog called Kaleidoscope and another piece of software called Res-Edit. Using Res-Edit I would pixel by pixel change and rebuild all the KAL skins.
It WAS time consuming to say the least and hard on the eyes. Then one day it crashed and all was gone, so I learned to like the provided skins.
Now I have Skin-Studio and Psp7, and starting to get into it.
Am I anywhere close to this conversation?

I agree, very often I like to get down into the pixel by pixel range...
Is that what you want to discuss?
