Description Okay before I begin,
I want to thank ~Sarah-the-ninja-101 ,
For letting me fix up this base,
I also want her to know that I'm not just,
Attacking her and this is not just geared towards her,
A lot of people do this I just found this base,
Easy to work with.
All right children sit down because Papa is very upset,
Pixel art is srs biznez just like CG's just like flash movies,
I'm sick of us being looked at like fucking,
Second class citizens on DeviantART,
It's true there have been some strides in the,
Right direction lately but by the public,
A lot of people look down on us because:
1) They think we are a bunch of tracers,
2) A lot of bases and dolls I've seen lately look like,
The person took five minutes to complete it.
If you're going to trace a base first off,
I hope you've got permission from the OG artist,
Or you're gonna be in a world of hurt when you're caught,
(Is speaking from experience)
Second off spend some quality time with the piece,
Why are you in such a hurry to post?
Wouldn't you rather post a decent base/doll,
Rather than look like a complete noob?
Finally there is a difference between a,
BASE and a COLOURING BOOK,
Bases are usually COMPLETELY NUDE,
Meaning there shouldn't be a bunch of shit,
Covering up the actual anatomic structure.
If you want to add in optional hair,
Or an accessory or two go for it,
But when your base is fully clothed,
With hair, accessories, a house, a car, the fucking moon,
Then it's not a base anymore,
It has now entered the DOLL category.
I'm getting sick of kids who think they're cool,
By tracing a pretty anime girl in a frilly dress,
Okay, whatever go do that on your own time,
But don't post it and think you're legit,
Because guess what you aren't.
I've been pixeling for three years,
So I know what I'm talking about,
It's a HUGE slap in the face,
To not just the pixel community,
But to me personally,
You can't believe how much I hurt for new comers,
WHO DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN,
A BASE AND A DOLL AND ART THEFT.
I'm not saying there's a right and wrong way,
To go about pixel art,
I'm just saying there is a right and wrong category,
For your piece of "ahhhhht",
You're basically putting yourself in the same group,
As the sonic recolourers and art thieves,
And believe me those aren't groups,
You want to be associate with.

Mine vs. Hers: [link]

My pixel fail (2006): [link]

Stamp of win: [link]

And please for the love of GOD,
Save your bases and dolls as either,
.Png, .Gif, or .Tiff files,
Because OBV .Jpg or .Jpeg pixel piece,
LOOK LIKE SHIT and are difficult to work with!

LOL awkward crotch

You certainly don't understand the Concept of a BASE, do you?
A Base is MEANT to be unclothed. So People can draw Clothes on them themselves, savvy?

It's a really adorable base.

I agreed with everything you said. I'm not as good as some pixel artists, but I don't spend three minutes on it and post it up. No. I take a while on mine, because for one, I'm freaking OCD about how hair looks, and two, I want it to look GOOD.

Also..
I cracked up really hard when you said, "the fucking moon.." It seemed so random, but so true. xD

Haha thank you,

We are better than this and I want us to rise above,
LOL it is so true yet so sad.

Thank you for this. XD It looks a lot better. But one thing, I don't think you should give the hair as an option. >u< I kind of defeats the purpose.

StrangestOne In reply to royaled-pixels [2010-05-05 04:19:29 +0000 UTC]

It's no biggie,
Glad you like it,
I left the hair,
Because that's just my style,
I usually throw up hair as an option,
Along with the occasional accessory,
But as I said there's a point where,
Enough is enough haha

royaled-pixels In reply to StrangestOne [2010-05-05 20:10:51 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. XD I do accessories if they're a main part of the picture, but if they can be taken away, I take them away. XD
