I have always dreamed... of one day becoming miss pixel of OHR. Now maybe my dream can finally come true. I am so happy... Y-Y
*blows his nose*
*sniff* I might be able to squeeze this in. It could be useful in future games anyway.

Ysoft, can you lay out more specific rules? This is actually a seemingly interesting to me.

Um, you're still going to limit the color depth, right? Because if not, then it's not really a pixel art contest.

/me puts sticky stuff on the topic

Well, the whole female character thing disqualifies me, hands down.

I spent too much time trying to perfect male characters, that I haven't done too well with the female.

I might actually participate in this one.

If there are at least 12 entries, maybe it would be a good opportunity to ressurect the old idea of a calendar for CastleParadox's Cafepress store :)

[Fernurion]

This sounds interesting. Indeed to create a female character for one of my current projects anyway. Finally a contest I can enter!

[Moogle1]

I'd consider entering if it were better defined. "Appears pixelated" is a very poor criterion.

Limit the color depth to 256 at the very least. 100x100 is 10,000 pixels. You don't need 24 or even 16-bit color depth for that.

okay, fine... just for the sake of humor and good spirit (and all that jazz), and to NOT have to make a completely new picture..., i submit the lady in my avatar: jenik. as i said in the monthly avatar contest thread, the original is 80x80, which i increased in photoshop to 100x100 to keep rippers at bay.

i don't expect to win because the pic uses about 10 colors, which is significantly less than the 256 contest limit.
