Why We Sprite?

[Gors]

I for one, sprite as a mean of improvement. It's like a personal challenge for myself. It also works as some kind of stress-reliever for me. There's something in placing those pixels that makes me feel really good.

So, I don't care if my work will have any use or not. Those big pixelarts I made don't have any specific purpose. But I enjoy making them. They push my techniques to its limits, and I always learn something by doing them. Sure, making useable graphics seem less of 'wasting time', but any work you do counts as experience imo.

Also, I shouldn't forget: I do those sprites for fun, too. Making sprites and improving as an artist doesn't exclude the fun from it.
