I dare say most of the top people here got where they are with mostly those two.this is actually true. mostof us if not all of us started with really poor edits, yet we decided to improve upon them whenever we realisedor were driven to realise sprite edits are an extremely limited way of expression, purely determined on the diaper sprite used as a base. it was for said discovery that we moved on to the big step that is developing stuff on your own.
Those who refuse or are not ready to take this step foward and start developing content on their own are nothing but shameful babies looking for nothing but quick attention from their fellow babies. it may work on those who are unfamiliar in how spriting works, but a sprite made up entirely from scratch will always have more merit and more value than any megaman or pokemon splice you could ever do. even the most dumb scribble could be improved, whenever an edit will be forever bound to the sprite it was based on.
