Are things slower around here?
#42
Okay here's my two-cents. I been thinking a lot about what was said. You know, about who comes to use this site.

When I first joined Ninsprites back in 2001, spriting meant something entirely different. While today the community likes sprites or pixelart for themselves, back then it was always about what you could DO with those sprites. See that's what was exciting. Sprites were merely the set peices to a much bigger picture. When we used to make custom sprites it wasn't because of the sprites themselves, it's because we wanted to make something that could belong to something bigger. It was fun imagining that my sprites might be used in a fan game or video. Sometimes I'd sprite things based on my own fan game/ video/ webcomic idea. That was our inspiration to do these things!

Pixelart that acts like regular art is lovely but... it doesn't have a broad appeal. I remember when I started to finally notice the change. I started seeing scenic portraits instead of... sprites. I was like "What's going on here? Who's gonna possibly use that in their fangame?" And they said to me: "It's not about fangames, flash videos, or webcomics anymore."

I felt as if they forgot why sprites were so much fun to begin with. And I think the rest of the web agrees. It's the things we make with the sprite that people love, not the sprites themselves.

If we want people coming back here we got to do something fun with the sprites we have on our site.
