Well, in Fire Emblem's case.. They've got weird design aesthetics.. And they've been at it for a long time. Also Angelg.

@Dark Diety: The superman game was weird, as everything was super deformed even though the concept ever existed yet, although the "baby face" featured in most chibis probably origionated from Betty Boop.

Noodle people around that time, yes. But not chibi "baby people".

I mostly went about redoing it based around what it turned out looking like as I worked on it but yeah, I understand what you mean

Get it

you see this is what happens when you let a newbie spriter like me wiith a sprite and paint

Use an image hosting site to host/display your image, not the attachment sistem.

1. Don't use attachments, upload your image to an image site like imgur.com, and then use this image code, so we can directly see the image :

2. Why did you make giant pixels like that, the whole point is to redraw it completely not enlarging and editing a few things

edit : got metaninja'd

Removed the attachment and issued a small warning. Follow Lexou's advice to make it easier for us to help you.

okay then...

1: @Lexou I did not edit anything, i redrew it completely, I thought to be original and make it look pixeled, the computer i used at that time wasn't my main computer and the version of paint there is the old version, so i coulndn't tell if it was huge or not. Anyways I did make it. I didn't edit a single pixel.
2: @Mighty Why??? why do you always look down on me? i'm only just starting, and i don't know how to navigate the site like you. There's a bunch of sections I didn't explore. I didn't know where to write the questions i had, so i put them in the first topic i saw... Also you were the new person once, try thinking what it felt to be that everything you ever said or posted got rejected. Also, I didn't get any warning, i have no idea what you were talking about.
3: @Meta: Yea i know, but the computer I used at the timedidn't work so well, and i don't know why but my image didn't save on imgur. but now i changed computers and imgur works fine now.

It seems you all don't like me, correct me if i'm wrong but that's just the impression i get. You are all talking happily then suddenly Mr. Capri Sun comes and you all start to annoy him. Why can't you all talk to me like you talk to each other? you are making jokes with each other but become oh-so serious when i post something. Anyways..It's just the FIRST image like that I ever did on Paint. Don't be such critics.
Also I'm sorry if I offended any of you, but still you all make me so frustrated, can we all just shake hands and be happy? All I ask is of you to give me another chance, don't look at me as if i'm a pest. So I don't want to ruin this topic, but I wanted somewhere to write down my frustrations.
Sorry Gors, for writing this post.

But thw main topic was NES remakes so can anyone tell me how I should do Captain America's head?

Read this post: http://www.spriters-resource.com/communi...#pid440510
People here don't say anything bad for the sake of it, they want to help you improve. If you follow their advice, you can end up being a lot better than where you started off.

Quote:There's a bunch of sections I didn't explore.

The rules are stickied fairly obviously in the Spriting & Pixel Art forum.

Quote:It seems you all don't like me

Well that isn't true, but first impressions, man. If you come in not having read the rules, then what do you expect people to say? They will tell you to read the rules and obey them.

Quote:can we all just shake hands and be happy?

I think that would be best.

I never looked down on you...I don't know when I ever came off as such but I'm sorry if I did.
It's just in this community, we don't like to have to download a sprite to be able to see it and offer criticism on it. That's why we always ask people to upload it to an image site, so that everyone can see your work easier and more people will comment on it (and also because it takes up space on the server).
I also know that you're new. Nobody's judging you based on that. That's why we have rules for people to read when they join, that way they'll know their way around and will know what to do right from the beginning. And believe me, I do know what it's like to be the new person, not used to your surroundings, and no idea how this new forum works and all. But I learned, and I grew to find that this community is the best I have ever come to know, once I got to know everyone.
Lexou was just offering friendly advice and asking you a question. No reason to be angry, because he wasn't trying to be mean.
Next time though, if you have issues with other members, you can always send them a private message.
I apologize again if I came off as strict, I never mean to, but I hope you understand now.

The "I'm new, cut me some slack" post.
No seriously, no one said anything that should offend you. So other than the Captain America at the end, this post is completely ridiculous.
Sorry if I come off harsh, that post just rubbed me the wrong way.

Look, this was completely bullshit. Now don't think I hate you, because I would say this to ANYONE who'd come with this kind of excuse


Stop being a crybaby. Afaik no one picked on you at all and all they said were VALID and IMPORTANT. I'd even understand your mistakes but the fact that they're literally written on the rules make you come off like a dumb person.
You did a mistake, people pointed out. What the heck do you expect? No one said that in a hostile manner; they were down right honest with your sprite. We aren't here (look at me saying this yet again) to sugarcoat people's works. We are here to make people improve by giving plain C+C.
C+C is NOT an attack, C+C is not 'being a troll'. Just read through them, analyze if they're true (they are, most of the times) and fix your work. If you can't handle our way of criticism, then I can't say much aside from changing yourself or telling you to leave.

Also by saying 'I don't know how to navigate on this site' is like saying 'I didn't read the rules' because it's one of the first things that appear to you when registering, not to say it is placed on the top of the main page of this site.

Seriously, if you get frustrated by things that are barely hostile towards you, I suggest you to learn what C+C is for.

this is the part where i removed all this bullshit and kept the thread exclusively for what matters.
