Aight... There's a new Mod... Here on sheezy (http://www.sheezyart.com/journal/440704/). He doesn't like sprite edits... AT ALL. Check out Payne Serge's Page [Payne Serge]  to see some of the damage that's been done. That's all I have to say...

God Bless

you can always tell a sprite ripper's page by their crappy layouts and horrible contrasting colors that make your eyes bleed

Id like to quote sir Payne Surge.

"The Spriter's Code

Yep, there is a code. And it will be spelled out here.

1. Do not claim to be a great spriter. - You will only seems arrogant. People WILL actively try to find many things wrong with your sprite and you will not earn many friends. If you are great, you will not need to say so. Do not say you are great ESPECIALLY if you use remakes or partially-remade sprites. It will not be true.

2. No one can teach you to sprite. - Asking "how do I make great sprites" is a question no one can answer. It involves practice and a trained eye for proportions, colour coordination, and the ability to rotate your sprite in your mind. People can give you pointers, but you must ultimately learn how to be great through endless amounts of practice

3. Never, EVER use someone else's sprite as a base. - This is VERY rude. If you want to seem like a jerk, take a sprite someone has made, remake it and say it is yours. Only use Capcom sprites or sprites from other games to make remakes. Using a fan base (even one that was very obviously modeled after Zero or X) will send rabid spriters after you with knives and pitchforks.

4. Accept criticisms with stride. - When you show someone a sprite and they criticize it, take it with stride, please. People criticize to help others to identify problems with their sprite so they can be fixed or avoided entirely in the future. Do not take these as insults. If we insult you, you'll know it. Do not get defensive, we are pointing out things we think are wrong to HELP you, it would be a hindrance to say only nice things.


Please don't judge me on the things i post, i am only posting things i have worked hard on, whether theyr are edited like my sprites or actually drawn, like some other art i might post soon.

Words of wisdom: As an Ultimate Creature, we pay a price, we hold our own inner Demons that threaten our lives, well, some of us do... i do at least. just know this, never let those demons take over you, or else, you might not be able to fight them off... you might not be as strong as you thought you were... "

oh ahaha wow im a quick one aren't I... you just put that as your..text.. never mind I feel silly now  

I just madefffggay

anyway spriters are gay for thinking they are great and people who can actually draw suck. It's like they have the complete opposite idea about art as they should have, and that's terrible.

I need to stop saying gay

But he is not himself if he is just editing a sprite... if he can draw his recolor then i think thats a different story...

but still it looks like he copied and pasted a few sprites together to make a shadow the hedgeog looking abommination...

i would rather make my own...

the suffering you're feeling right now is nowhere near as great a magnitude as the suffering payne surge has to undergo every day as he fights his life-threatening inner demons

I don't like sprite recolorers...
At all.
I really don't like sprites either.
Well, maybe ones that are of people's own stuff.
Like this piece of shit I made in about 10 minutes.
Would've been shorter but my cat's sitting on my arm.

Oh no, someone got banned for passing off recolors and slight pixel changes as art?

I think sprites are fine as long as they're fucking original sprites and not recolors.
