@Gors:
Dithering is also used, if someone intentionally aims for a certain retro look (like Sega Genesis graphics). I know, it's not too common nowadays, but i wouldn't say just because something isn't popular, it should be avoided. It's always good to explore different styles instead of just following one route.
Quote:Avoid doing dithering, unless you're: 1-working with an extremely limited palette; 2-is simulating gritty surfaces, such as orange's skin;

Quote:Recycle colors. [...] it keeps your work tidy and more elaborated....if you are working with a limited palette, yes. Otherwise, why recycle colors, if "you can easily add a new color to the palette with today's technology"?
