Resizing a larger image. Wow. That really makes me feel smart I went and drew mine on a teeny tiny 50x50 canvas.

Anyway your tut rocks. Really. And that sunfish only adds to the awesomisity

-Third attempt at posting this- @_@

-COPIES IT this time-

A lot of work goes into these.. 8D;; You're making me want to do pixel work... D: The text is a little hard to read, though. /:

Snap.. O: That sketch resizing is really ingenious.. I can't sketch teeny pixels, so that's a great idea. <3

|D Thanks..

Oh god, it's hard, though. :C I planned to make the plant do a "take" before speaking, and I can't even animate that right.. -Mumble- I'm redoing it with a cleaner sketch.. hopefully I can get something from there. The first time I kind of.. leaped right into it.. xDD It looked ridiculous, like it was having a seizure or trying to dance or something.

Yeahh.. 8DD I've got to do some practices or something.. It's seriously not workiiing.
