That ol' Sprite Thread

[Yubi Shines]

A forum is not a chatroom. Or a livejournal, either.

Judas Priest.

[Teelio]

It's blurry, because it's in 'jpg'.

Oh, I see. I thought I saved it as .png

At least I got da moneyyyyyy.

[guitaristjoe]

Noob question.

What program do you use to make sprites?

[MOX]

Any program that you can draw and color with.

[Chron]

Noob question.

What program do you use to make sprites?

Notepad.

Or MSPaint.

Real men use Notepad.

[Yubi Shines]

Microsoft Paint is all that I have used.

Photoshop is very good for three reasons: First, layers; second, much more than three "undo"'s available; three, perfectly saving a file into GIFs and PNGs without (when it comes to sprites) colour loss. I've never gotten used to spriting with it, however.

[Chron]

1. Pencil tool.
2. 1pt size pencil.
3. Zoom in all the way.
4.
5. Profit!

Looking good AA.

But the head could have a bit more color to it. Like this.

[Mikero]

I agree although that MMZ garbage G-string stuff is lame.

Well, sometimes there's a loss or gain brightness. A slight change, that isn't totally important but can be annoying.

I'll work on the shading some other time.

What's important is, Megaman Axl Progress

*beats AA with a stick*

Excuse me?

Say it again!

I dare you! Say it again!

NEVER say that EVER again!

Stay true to yourself! Axl is all important! Never let the grumps and nubs at MMM tell you otherwise! Axl is the hero of Megaman's future!

[NovaMan XP]

The sheet resized itself... so it's small and blurry.

EDIT: Wait, clicking it makes it bigger...

[preventerWIND]

It's pretty good, but the teleporting sprite is incomplete, you can still see Zero's hair.

[NovaMan XP]

and you guys may have not have seen his sheet (INCOMPLETE).

[preventerWIND]

Could've sworn that wasn't included in his last post, my bad.

[Aresian]

Kickass! Dude, I want to play your game. But you gotta actually make it, don't cop out like many other fans before you!

[Advent Akksul]

I don't want to disappoint my staff, my members of AABBS, Axl fans, and myself.

So I don't plan to 

[TheRedPriest]

Axl fans

Next you'll be trying to sell me a picture of Big Foot riding the Loch Ness Monster.

But seriously, nice work.

[Xearez]

Cool sprite sheet.I like axl but all axl sprites are custom.

[Panda]

Ooooh, that sprite sheet is fantastic.

Axl fans exist? Where?

[preventerWIND]

Ooooh, that sprite sheet is fantastic.

Axl fans exist? Where?

*Points an angry mob to AA*

GIT'EM!!!

[Xearez]

Angry mob whear?

[Chron]

*Points an angry mob to AA*

GIT'EM!!!

Error. Null pointer exception.

[ChaosVortex]

If you want perfection, I'd say the color or shading of the grey and the brown hair looks weird to me, but it could just be me.

Nonetheless, this is a very good job.

[Dr.]

Angry mob whear?

-Points an Angry Mob at your computer-

CHARGE!!!!!

[NovaMan XP]

*kills Xearez's computer*

DID I WIN?

[Slugkid]

NO YOU DIDN'T.
*Kills Xearez"
I WON. HA-HA.

[MOX]

The bg of the sprite (transparent or not) also counts as a color. Usualy though the MMZ sprites dont acutaly have a full 16 colors in them, they have like about 8-12 colors or so if you really care about that stuff. Removing some of the colors will make it easier to fix the contrast, also make the last shade of each color darker, or something to make the shades more different from each other.

[Mikero]

I'm making a Fan Game! It's called Megaman Axl!

God...


But the sprites are nice.

[preventerWIND]

Speaking of which, what are you using to make this game?

[Advent Akksul]

More than likely 'Gamemaker', but rumor has it that a  program is in progress until 08'

[Dr.]

I made a good start on this sprite, but it is not FINISHED.

Here.

[ChaosVortex]

A Large shirt would fit him, not Extra Large. Something about the shirt weirds me out, plus shading is weirdish.

It's a good touch though if experiminting.

Also, Goofy feet.

[Advent Akksul]

Shirt is pillowshaded, but you knew that already.

[preventerWIND]

It's a start.

Who is that anyways? Liposuctionman?

[Dr.]

It's a start, yes, I did tons more shading last night and it looks tons better.

It's an attempt at a more custom sprite.

I indeed have to do more work on it, but it's a start.

[Slugkid]

I'm making a Fan Game! It's called Megaman Axl!

Don't worry. It's on the make already... >_<

[Advent Akksul]

Yeah after I make it possible. =P

[preventerWIND]

I don't think the magic 8 ball likes me.. I wanted to try it out, y'know, have some fun, and it just started asking ME questions! The rest is posted here.

[Panda]

That's too smart for a magic 8-ball. It's a cylon!

[ChaosVortex]

What a dick.

Funneh.

[Mikero]

I had some pretty funny chats with the God bot. I'd post them if it was on topic.

[Johncarllos]

*ponders whether or not to make a topic for funny AIM convos....*
Somebody else do it.

[preventerWIND]

Well, back on topic..

Heres a sheet of myself, all RPG like.

[Mikero]

That's a really cool style, good job.

[Advent Akksul]

What Style is that?

[preventerWIND]

It was made from Beet the Vandal buster sprites, they're sprites for a platformer game but can look like some RPG battle sprites.

[Mikero]

I really dig that style, might try working in them sometime. Not that I have time to sprite much these days.

[Xearez]

I was looking at  A.Akksuls zane and gimmel sprites and started thinking.what would protoman look like in megaman zero?
