the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX

My mom keeps fussing at me over spriting and keeps talking about it like it's sh*t, she doesn't understand what spriting means to me...

it's because spriting is shit (to most people, anyway)

you can't tell me making 150 frames of animation of a character is fun
it's not

the fun is in creating the character and drafting it up, and using the canvas that's MSPaint to make a pixel playground of greatness

(it's pixelart, mom, not spriting. it's not soda, it's art with pixels)

also i can't see how you can possibly flip a shit over getting a mac. macs are fricken amazing productivity tools.

*if you can, obtain a copy of windows (maybe from your old computer's Windows XP install?) and look into BootCamp. if you have OSX Lion, you can even set up a virtual machine to emulate Windows (using VMWare or VirtualBox)

BootCamp is better IMO because you're literally booting into Windows and it's another partition on your hard drive so it's not being simulated, so all your RAM is dedicated to it
