View Full Version : Forum Avatars

LIONTAMER EDIT: Oh thank God you started this Joy, as opposed to someone who isn't good at what they're doing here. I'm de facto in charge of quality control and accepting new avatars, but want to make it clear that AFAIK nothing is going to get added to the avatars until AFTER the vBulletin forums migration, which could be anywhere from 2 weeks from now, to God only knows when. So please don't worry about it if we get backlogged and stuff isn't added immediately. Custom avatars will not be allowed in the new forums (but if you have something relevant we accept here and no one else uses it, that's practically a custom avatar).
1. Basic format is that pics should look good when cropped/resized/F'ed-around-width. That means centered, with sharp resolution, and with transparency when necessary. Shit that looks poorly done is gonna be mercilessly called out by me.
2. 32x32 is the maximum dimensions we accept. Smaller than that is OK. GIF format is the ONLY file format we accept.
3. Please name the files or detail in your posts what characters/games are being shown so that we'll be able to seperate the avatars by game series, company, whatever.
4. Anime, comic book, TV and other types of avatars are allowed, but this is primarily a video game devoted site and the major majority of avatars accepted will be VG-related.
5. I will edit my comments into your posts, so please check what you're posting in order to see my direct comments. I save everything I think is already good and will host them on OCR's FTP when they're needed.
Also, I'm only a human being and I'm getting ready to move in a few weeks (late March/early April), so while I pack my things, get settled in a new place and yadda ya, bear with me when I lag behind with comments and feedback.
------------------------------------------------------
I just found some of the leftovers of the last batch of avatar I worked on when it was trendy to make them. I also remember Liontamer said to me that I could post some avatar occasionnaly because I supposedly make quality avatars soooooooooooooooo, here it is... a new thread where I'll work on some avatar from time to time, probably taking request and doing others from my own twisted ideas.
However, do not worry, I don't want this to become an additionnal burden for DJP or anyone else involved in the acceptance of new official OCR forum avatars, neither do I want to constantly annoy them with attention-whorism or demands, my goal would be to provide them with a regular flow of avatar to look upon when they have time to check them out, if they want to. So if this thread isn't needed or wanted, feel free to lock or delete it without hesitation. I will hold no grudge whatsoever to anybody, I just want to lend a hand doing something I love to do. Also, this thread is by no way oriented only towards my work. If anyone wants to contribute, feel free to do so.
Here some random ones... (Size is always 32x32 pixels - smaller is acceptable for transparency usage)

LT: I have most of those from last time around, and saved all the new ones except the OCR4-tan. The resolution on that one doesn't look quite so hot, but see if you can tinker with it.

LT: Sorry about not replying to your original PM, Douli, just a case of the inbox being too full. I took the first one (tsubasa_fye.gif), but the rest look grainy and horrible. A couple of them, you can't really tell what they're supposed to look like. No-go on those, just that 1. (Images have since been updated by Douli, so I wasn't just seeing things.)

LT: Yeah, I remember these from last time around. Some of the more chibi-glow-in-the-dark-eyed stuff looks absolutely scary. I took 8 of 'em (1 Grahf, 1 Chaos, 4 Kos-Mos, 1 Albedo, 1 Shion), and will pass on the rest. Hope you're not offended by that. You obviously know how to crop/size things well here. Hope you make more from other material.

As far as I know, we're sticking with the current avatar structure when the forums are migrated to vBulletin. Same size restrictions and limited only to the avatars that are available on-site rather than any custom avatars.
I've added instructions/background to the beginning of Joyzilla's post up top and Stickied the thread. This is basically a non-music Site Project. I leave it up to DarkeSword to determine what forum the thread will go in, but for now it'll remain in GD where it'll get the most attention. Thanks for getting this started again, Joyzilla.
Who knows what sort of chaos would be unleashed if we ever got custom avatars. :P
^It's chaotic enough already with the sigs...Although...Custom avatars would be pure bliss for the guys over at UnMod!
So...Can someone just walk in here and maybe make requests for avatars? Cus's little tiny images of the "Mario and Luigi"'s Mario and Luigi would be nice.
Also, more OCR-tan.
And Katamari stuff. Like King of all Cosmos.

All of the SITE HELP threads should go in site projects, technically, but I'm going to wait until the vB switch to do the actual move.
For now we'll leave in General.

Also, I know about the size issues (some are 33x33) and that big one, that will be cleaned up on the update
LT: Uh yeah, well, I know these are rough, but let's point out the obvious. The first Shinra logo is fine, except that it's a JPG rather than a GIF. The others below it look like they're made in MS Paint and look cruddy and grainy, so don't even bother trying to get them up to shape. We're looking more for already-made pictures that have been resized, not bootleg fan-art stuff. We have some bootleg Street Fighter ones from WAY back, but otherwise no fan art is allowed unless it looks ridiculously professional/high-grade (e.g. OCR-tan). The green and purple mothers with their arms down are ok, but need transparency for the white background and, as you know, need to be in the right size.
Be nice, man! All I have at work is mspaint... This was just for the Idea... I got Corel at home, gonna fix em up good. Trying to get a few more better ones in, but rather than "one at a time them" I'll finish it up this weekend and blast you with them, shotgun style...
In the mean time President Shinra: Any good?
http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e254/rshinra/new-2.gifhttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e254/rshinra/PresShin.gif
(so I can know if I'm close "quality wise" with the rest?)
LT: Only as a judge am I mean. :lol: The Shinra here is decent overall. Good resolution, relatively good transparency done. The only problem is the proportion, where you can tell the height was squooshed relative to the width. Don't sub anything where an image shrink is not 1:1, otherwise it's easily gonna look squished like the Shinra pic. Otherwise, it's pretty good just not quite useable, but your others ones should probably be good. And yeah, giving me a bunch at once is preferable to 1-by-1. 1-by-1 ad nauseum, I start disregarding stuff.

edited. for graininess
LT: That non-human character, the second one (Hakumokona), is still really fuzzy, plus the cropping on it isn't really that strong to begin with, so I don't really think it'll make a good image like that. That fifth one (Shaoloan), where his mouth is right at the bottom, maybe shift the face up so less of his hair is at the top and you get a little more of the guy's face in the picture. But the rest look good bro, thanks.

For the CV: Circle of the Moon ones, the resolution looks fuzzy on most of them. Necromancer and Werewolf were good though, so I took those. If you can clean up the resolution on the 2nd Nathan Graves, Hugh Baldwin, the 1st Carmilla, Dracula, and the close-up Skeleton, those would be good. The rest, fuggitaboutit.
Edit: Some links are broken, intentionally. Just check for newer ones in later posts.
All of them are 32x32 gifs. Not all of them are pixel perfect though.

LT: Other than Space Ghost and Zorak (thanks), the rest are pixely crud and you know it. Brak's the best of the rest, but even that could be better. Some are obviously too dark. When you're not using Photoshop or something good to resize, it shows.
TCK: I think I found what I did wrong for the others to look so shitty. I'll fix them out tomorrow. Also, added Phoenix Wright avs.
Besides, as long as Space Ghost works :D
LT: Most of the Phoenix Wright are slightly muddy (the ones with the gray backgrounds) or too sharp (Phoenix could be smoothed out more), but the 2nd and 3rd to last on the right (Gumshoe and Larry) are good, so I took 'em.
EDIT: Actually on second though, there's just too much white/empty space for those two, and the faces are shrunk too much. If you color the background and/or get closer looking pics for Gumshoe and Larry, that would be good.

@ Liontamer
Really? They all came from the full sized version of these pics: http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/cotm/ and in most of them, I used a fixed size selection square of 32x32 instead of manual selction and cropping (which doesn't yield the best results). But I agree with you about the outcome of the Werewolf and Necromancer.
Should just increasing the resoultion in Photoshop (via image size)do the trick)?
I can do some Dawn of Sorrow ones also, they were definitely more simple anime like (Think Pokemon people), so they should come out clearer.
I also think we should have one of Agent Cruller from Psychonauts, great character. Boyd's character really stood out in the game and is worth an avatar also.

LT: I have most of those from last time around, and saved all the new ones except the OCR4-tan. The resolution on that one doesn't look quite so hot, but see if you can tinker with it.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/Joyzilla/Sig%20Bodyshop/OCRtan2.gif
Is that what you were looking for?
Watch me pull out the anal-retentive card. I swear it's just for quality control, not "OMG I HATE YOU AND DISREPECT YO?UR EFFROT!"
Well, unfortunately OCR4-tan looks too sharp/pixelated now, so a happy medium between the first and second tries should get a good result.
Here some others...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/Joyzilla/Sig%20Bodyshop/KingOfAllCosmos.gif
LT: A little grainy, plus the style/background looks so similar to the other one that we only need one good pose, so...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/Joyzilla/Sig%20Bodyshop/KingOfAllCosmos2.gif
...by request, here's the King of All Cosmos himself.
LT: No on the first one, but nice work on the second. Nice, bro. That's a winner.

..and secondly, our favorite Beyond Good & Evil babe, the lovely Jade!
LT: Weird; the first one is ok per se, but the pose on the second Jade definitely looks better, only the pic's too dark. Can you lighten it, and we can just use that one? Otherwise, I can just use the first Jade.

LT: Yeah, I remember these from last time around. Some of the more chibi-glow-in-the-dark-eyed stuff looks absolutely scary. I took 8 of 'em (1 Grahf, 1 Chaos, 4 Kos-Mos, 1 Albedo, 1 Shion), and will pass on the rest. Hope you're not offended by that.
No. Not at all. That's plenty. I love you.

Here's some updates.
I just realize that i didn't load my CoTM ghost one up. I don't think you are collecting enemies, but I thought it looked really cool, and I truly hope you consider it.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/cotm_dracula.gifhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/ghost3.gifhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/carmilla.gif
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/0495831a.gifhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/nathan1.gifhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/nathan4.gif
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/cotm/skeleton3.gif
I made different versions of the skeleton so you choose. By the way, the grey line on the left is the bone it is throwing. Should I keep it or erase it?
LT: Skeleton's kinda iffy anyway as the main image was too fuzzy and the sharpened one is too sharp. The bone would have to be erased though. If the size was smaller to allow more of the skull in the picture, too much detail would probably be lost, so I'd scrap it. Kind of a lot of white/empty space in that one anyway, so I'm trying not to add it many like those. White space looks bad over a silver/gray background.
Dracula's a little bit pixelated, but good enough, so thanks for sharpening him. Ghost looks awesome as hell, and no I don't descriminate against what type of characters/things are given images. Anything from a game that would look good as an avatar is fair game.
By the way, I did see your earlier comment about the CV images you linked to. Tough break there, but I see how the grainyness wasn't your fault at all. The images Classic Gaming had were already muddy and small to begin with, so you tried to work with what you had. But yeah, that's why some of them aren't that hot.
Do you think Coach Oleander needs to be sharpened/brightened?
I also added a couple of more characters. There are ton of avatar worthy characters from the game, but I think we have enough. I thought the ones I added were really worth adding.

After posting Ford, I see that it doesn't look that good, but I really enjoyed the character.
LT: Actually, now that you mention it, Coach Oleander and Lungfish could use a tiny bit of brightening, but it's not a huge deal if not. I think they come out ok. I also took Sasha Nein and the sharpened Raz. The others didn't look like they would fit as much. Hope you're not offended by that. Thanks for coverting those JPGs.

Ones that we need:
Delta Force symbol
Number Munchers characters
ET from Atari 2600
Clay Fighter characters
Of course, since I don't have the capacity or patience to do anything in gif format, I'm leaving this to others to do it.
Trentdaddy

I'll jump on the Number Munchers request because I loved that game. However, I'm not wanting to do the others right now. May do them later if I feel like it.
Edit: I happened to find a download for the game and a clone of it. Now I can't remember why I loved the game so much (I guess it was fun when you didn't know the number so easily). Oh well, here it is.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Trentdaddy/ocremix/ava/number_muncher.gif
LT: That clone can die! Apple IIe or nothin' as far as I'm concerned. (Actually, the old Mac Color Classic had a good upgraded version of the game with improved graphics.) But yeah, fuck that fake clone version there. If you get the REAL pics from Apple IIe Number Munchers and them some Troggles, then I <3. Troggle-us Smarticus, baby. Nevar forget.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/89/NumberMunchersScreenshot.jpg
Yeah, as soon as you find me a program that can take images from a DOS program. Or if you can give me some real pictures of it w/o numbers in the way. (which at that point, you could probably make one yourself).
Edit, I might be able to do one from the lives in that picture, but it would look cruddy, unless I perhaps recolored it. (Clearing up "clumped" pixels)
Edit: Back to Razsputin. Look at the diff. btwn the sharpened and unsharpened one. The Sharpened one is brightened, but a bit too sharp on the edges. The unsharpened one is perfect on the edges, but a tad dark. I think if I just increase the contrast on that one, it would be perfect.
As for the ChibiOCR-Tans, I knew the first looked the best. The other two I couldn't sharpen anymore if I tried (except maybe with the manual sharpening tool). At this point, do we need the others?
LT: Don't worry about Number Munchers. In a perfect world, there would be many pics online with which to get some avatars. Best best for anyone interested would be to emulate the Apple IIe and get some screen captures.
Sharpened Raz is a little too sharp, but from a casual distance, you can't really tell. If you want to lighten to smoother one, you're more than welcome to try.
No need to worry about the other OCR4-tan pics, as those weren't the best shots anyway.
Nice King of all Cosmos and Castlevania avatars!

I'm willing to try messing with them some more, if necessary. Kinda makes me realize pretty much every unit portrait in Starcraft is pretty damn dark...
LT: Medic looks good. Marine is still too soft like I originally thought and would need to be sharpened, plus there's too much negative space. I'd say fuggitaboutit, the pic doesn't really look that good anyway, but maybe that's just me. Yeah, feel free to try others if you want and see what you can get.

Stop using Paint and get something better, like the Gimp, Paintshop Pro or Photoshop.

[EDIT: 1:1 resized]
some try with this little guy:
http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/num1.gif
it didn't turn that well. i'll try with transparency later
LT: Mr. T! Ha! Good choice. Yeah, Muncher's lip looks kind of fucked up. Don't even worry about that one. I doubt a transparency would look much better. The only way to get a good shot would be to run an Apple IIe emulator and get a screen capture of the game.
Due to the simplicity of the source, it would be easier to remake it pixel by pixel. Is it worth it?
LT: If you were to do that, Muncher must be immaculate. Cuz if it's not, I'll know. :lol: (someone go for screen grab!)

LT: Ooooook. Well I suppose there's nothing wrong with throwing a lot of ideas against the wall and seeing what sticks, but you gotta make high quality avatars, not just a bunch of cruddy ones. A lot of these are not sharp enough, not detailed enough because the images are too shrunken down, too dark, too light, or attempting to go for transparency but has stray pixels or would look better with a background. So I'm only gonna pluck the well-made stuff. So I'll take the closeup of Knuckles, Super Sonic preparing to run, and Harle. Thanks for those, bro. I'll take Amy Rose if you eliminate the stray pixels.

Okay I'm trying this again. We haven't had any Metaknight yet so:
If you take nothing else I'd really like this one:http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/6483/sammeta6mo.gif
And a samurai Kirby:http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/2153/samkirby6bx.gif
These two are kinda meh, but here they are anyway:http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/2936/metaback5rf.gifhttp://img234.imageshack.us/img234/4518/metaknight3wb.gif
I wanted to add one of him with wings and this is the only one that fits:http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/5609/metawing2lk.gif
Edit: if it hasn't been done already, here's the Zero avatar with added trasparency:http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/9971/mmxzero8xx.gif OLD -->http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/images/avatars/gallery/games/mmx_zero.gif
Edit 2: I only saw the Fusion Samus so I did a couple from the original:
http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/1373/samus1crouch2yt.gif
http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/3245/samus1stand3uw.gif
I also noticed we have this:http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/images/avatars/gallery/games/metroid.gif which is over-sized
So I'm not sure if you want this:http://img115.imageshack.us/img115/9779/svaria0zy.gif
LT: Nice, now you're getting the hang of it. Well, don't need any more Kirby, but the samurai and regular-looking Metaknight look good. Thanks a lot for the Zero transparency fix (the unfixed one annoys the shit of me). The standing NES-style Samus is good as well, so we'll just use those, but definitely hit up some other game sprites and post 'em up here, preferably from something less known if you're interested. Thanks for your effort here.

LT: As a disclaimer, there are actually so many of these types of sprites offered here that I'd think djp would pick the best ones using his own discretion. I don't know for sure, but it's possible. You mind ZIPing these next time for an easy download? If I missed any, it's because there were simply too many on the page.

Ok... finally I get to do one I've wanted for a while. (These are all from the anime series Naruto.)
Sharingan:
http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/9575/sharingan8gu.gif
I personally don't like the edge on that, I'm gonna go back and make more.
I demand more sharingan, though.
EDIT: And byakugan!
EDIT 2: I did another one:
More sharingan:
http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/7069/sharingan28uj.gif
EDIT 3: Three more! I'm really enjoying this!
ANBU:
http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/8572/anbu5iv.gif
Rock Lee:
http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/3203/lee2bk.gif
Sakura - Pissed:
http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/7690/pissedsakura9bz.gif
EDIT 4: Added series name and character names.
LT: Yeah, the round things just have bad edges on them, and the second one of those looks like a poor resize. The only anime shot that looks fine is Anbu, even though I don't know what the hell that is or if we'd ultimately take it. Rock Lee doesn't look quite smooth enough, and initially it doesn't look like a 1:1 resize. Looks squished. Sakura needs to be sharper, but I dunno if I'm gonna take that image anyway. Don't really need anything with evil eyes like that. Go for the touchup on the Rock Lee one.

"Roguelike" (nemimen's request):
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Roguelike.gif
(note: minor edit on a transparency. you may need to reload your cache)
LT: The Super Mushroom look good. Indiana Jones just needs some stray pixels removed. But you gotta refine the overall quality of your avatars. Look at how clean and smooth the resize on your Neko avatar is; almost none of the ones here look as good. If you can get the big Robotnik sprite to not be so dark, we can use that too.

LT: Hahahah! Balto! Man, you need to smooth/sharpen these all out. Except for Taz, these images are just not smooth enough. I don't mind cartoon characters but would rather see them in video game form, not pictures. How about Scrooge from DuckTales for the NES or Taz from Taz-Mania for the Genesis? Overall, stick more to video game images. I'm not really gonna add many non-VG images aside from animes, and even then, the anime stuff isn't gonna be huge either. Don't lose focus.

I made 44 Chrono Cross avatars (excluding Harle since nineko already made that one for me), yet I don't want to post them individually here as it would take me forever to upload them and make the appropiate links here. So here is a simple zip archive of them if you want to browse. Point out anything that you think I should fix and I might fix it.
File size: 88 KB
http://www.joryp.com/upload/download.php?file=8cdeadc1037cecfb69a23009c50273e6
LT: Irene, Lynx & Starky look excellent. The rest are crud, most of them having loads of stray pixels despite the attempt at transparency. Personally, I recommend for most people not to do transparency on non-sprite images. I can understand the attempt at doing so if these pictures all had white backgrounds, but it generally doesn't turn out looking good regardless. Some of the other character pics with no transparency edits just didn't look good unfortunately. If nothing practical can be done about any of the rest of the characters, the three I chose will still make very nice additions, so thank you.
EDIT: Okay, will work on those some more. Ouch, all of them did have white backgrounds. I'll probably have to start from scratch.

http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/Eastwood.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/Eastwood2.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/Eastwood3.gif
LT: The Nero one isn't a good pic, IMO. Need to be sharper, all of them. The first Bronson one is almost there; sharpen it slightly and brighten it a little. Also, sharpen the 3rd Eastwood slightly and center the picture. Forget the others. Nice work so far, those are gonna look good.

Just quickly made some Ragnarok Online ones:
Poring - http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/8076/ragnarokonlineporingavatar6jk.gif
Baphomet Jr. - http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/5492/ragnarokonlinebaphometjravatar.gif
Lunatic - http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/9652/ragnarokonlinelunaticavatar7cm.gif
Spore - http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/1205/ragnarokonlinesporeavatar5ph.gif
Goblin - http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/817/ragnarokonlinegoblinavatar8yw.gif
LT: Poring looks awesome. Couple of the other ones are too small to be recognizeable. Get the stray white pixels off of Spore, please. Lunatic, what the hell is that supposed to be? It's just...unrecognizable. A bunny with no face, am i rite! Anyway, Poring is all good and once Spore looses the stray white pixels on the top and left, that's good too. Thanks.

http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_Gman.gif
LT: Nah, forget about those. Lame-looking faces, plus they're all too dark. But thanks for the attempt.
You can't reject avatars because of your personal preferences of character attractiveness, Larry. :P It's because they're white, isn't it? You, as a formerly oppressed "brotha," now feel the need to abuse your newfound power as a judge to stick it to the white man, is that it? Discrimination is still discrimination, Larry! Don't hate on the whiteys! (LT: Kill whitey.)
(But seriously, even though those particular avs aren't too good, we still need some HL2 in the collection. At least a logo or something.)

let's try it again then.
http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_alix2.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_breen3.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_calloun2.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_elivance2.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_elivance3.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_gordon2.gifhttp://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_kleiner2.gif
i just notice that my screen show image, very lighten. some of my avatar look more darker on my friend's computer screen. i need to thing about that when making avatar i think :?
LT: Quick breakdown:
Alix: too green, cropped too tightly
Breen: Too dark, should be moved up, cropped too tightly
Calloun: Almost good, but cropped a little too tightly
The lighter Eli Vance: cropped too tightly
Gordon: Cropped too tightly
Kleiner: Too dark, cropped a little too tightly
So yeah, you can see I agree with David in the post below. Don't crop the faces so tightly. Get the full picture of the face and make sure to properly center them; stop cutting out the forehead and/or chin.
ok. sorry. i'll try to fix that.

http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_kleiner2.gif :arrow: http://www.doulifee.com/Storage/avatar/halflife2_kleiner2bis.gif
LT: Man, I hate to say that I think most of the faces are ugly. Alix, Eli, Gordon and Kleiner, I'm just not feeling. Except for Kleiner, they all lacked sharpness, plus they just have ugly faces, sorry. Calloun looks good to use though. Breen is still way too dark. He's the closest anyone will get to an old Sean Connery avatar at this stage.
DLF:no problem. i think i give up on those one. if someone want to try. Good luck
I like the Gordon...all the others seem to be cropped slightly too close, though.

Hey LT, besides mine having loads of stray pixels (which was caused by my save settings in PS), how would you say I should do the backgrounds? Right now I'm trying to clean up the edges and adding a 1px outer black stroke to those that don't show that nicely on a transparent bg. All the source pictures had a white background. :cry:
LT: I wouldn't really know, as I don't know the picture programs well, but you can replace white backgrounds with any color you want, so long as it looks ok and is done easily enough without looking amateur/spotty.
Nineko
03-20-2006, 02:22 AM
Let's see if I can quote the correct stuff in the correct place...
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Amy1.gif Amy
LT: I'll take Amy Rose if you eliminate the stray pixels.I'm not sure what do you mean as stray pixels. I have two edits about this anyway: http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Amy2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Amy3.gif
LT: Stray pixels are any pixels that mess up a transparency effect. You had some white pixels on the edges on the Amy picture that you didn't make transparent. In any case, the close-up face is way better for the ladies. Nice work.
Super Knuckles:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SuperKnuckles1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SuperKnuckles2.gif
What's wrong with these? :(
I'm not arguing, for sure. But I find these two pretty funny. And they're ripped sprites, so if they're wrong just tell Sega's artists. Should I recolor them with the non-super colors?
edit: done. See my new post (http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2314880#2314880) about this.
LT: Pink is lame if it's not for the ladies. I saw the edit with the regular colors, by the way, so I used one of those.
LT: I'm not really gonna add many non-VG images aside from animes, and even then, the anime stuff isn't gonna be huge either. Don't lose focus.
Inuyasha:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Inuyasha1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Inuyasha2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Inuyasha3.gifOk, you're not going to take a lot of anime stuff... but I love these ones... Please... at least one... :P
LT: Nah, the picture choices are lame, plus they're not sharp enough.
Indiana Jones:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Jones.gif
LT: Indiana Jones just needs some stray pixels removed.Again, I'm not sure about that. Anyway: http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Jones2.gif. Better?
LT: Still a stray white pixel on the right side of his face near his neck. Yep.
Ivo "dr. Eggman" Robotnick, from Sonic:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Eggman1.gif
LT: If you can get the big Robotnik sprite to not be so dark, we can use that too.What about this?
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Eggman3.gif
LT: Eggcellent.
Homer Simpson:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Homer1.gifPlease?
LT: Nope. Get a screen capture and do it with a background, rather than transparent. The quality here isn't sharp enough anyway.
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Balto.gif Balto
LT: Hahahah! Balto!Does this mean he's in or out?
LT: My bad. Yeah, the dog is definitely in. Never saw the movies, BTW. They're probably lame. I just thought that was a really unexpected idea for an avatar.
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Taz.gif Taz
LT: Except for Taz, these images are just not smooth enough. [...] How about Taz from Taz-Mania for the Genesis?Ok, so Taz is smooth, but is he in or out?
LT: Well, the face is cropped too closely. I'd really prefer for most cartoon characters to be game sprites, otherwise we'll get a glut of Disney and Warner Brothers cartoon avatars, which I'm not gonna do. And yeah, in the Genesis game you see him upfront.I hope you know that he's displayed from behind in the video game...
http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/497/tazmania28pp.gif
I guess I shouldn't use that pic :P
(later edit: my fault. that pic is from the SNES game)
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Scrooge.gif Scrooge Mc Duck
LT: How about Scrooge from DuckTales for the NES?Sure.
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Ducktales1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Ducktales2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Ducktales3.gif
LT: YES! The first one is exactly what we need. Awesome.
Pacman:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Pacman1.gifThis MUST be in. :lol:
Edit: reworked for sharpness.
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Pacman2.gif
LT: Nah, just too bright and looks lame. Try getting a more modern version of Pac-Man.
Thanks for those, bro.No problem, I like to be useful. :P
edit (more avatars):
Rework on Yusuke:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Yusuke1.gif :arrow: http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Yusuke3.gif
LT. Nah, forget that one. Image is too shrunken down. You tried to apply more sharpness and it just made it look pixelated. Try some other shot of the guy.
Then, since you like sprites from actual games, a whole bunch of sprites from Sega Master System games! (they are easy to rip)
LT: Thanks a lot for tackling some lesser-known and underappreciated games here. This helps us a lot. djp in particular will probably be happy with Sega Master System love.
Alex Kidd:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/AlexKidd1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/AlexKidd2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/AlexKidd3.gif
LT: Took the first two.
Asterix:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Asterix.gif
LT: Wow, that can't be Master System graphics, this one looks too good.
Aztec Adventure:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/AztecAdventure1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/AztecAdventure2.gif
LT: Ick. Gangly looking things, I'll pass on these.
Ghost House:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/GhostHouse1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/GhostHouse2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/GhostHouse3.gif
LT: Took the first two.
Kung Fu Kid:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/KungFuKid.gif
LT: HIIIIIIIIIII-YAH! :lol:
Rastan:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Rastan.gif
LT: Cool.
Spy Vs Spy:
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SpyVsSpy_Heckel.gif Heckel
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SpyVsSpy_Jackel.gif Jackel
LT: Why did the game make their bodies flesh-colored. Makes them look like deformities. Pass on these, but thanks very much for the ones that were solid. You're helping a great deal and I appreciate it.

Not that I'm unhappy with my current, but more Katamari avatars are ALWAYS welcome. *hint hint*

First up, a resubmission:
Final Fantasy X - Rikku
Old = http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/ffx_rikku.gif
New = http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/ffx_rikku1.gif
LT: Nice fix, bro. Looking good now.
Now the new stuff:
Games
Final Fantasy X - Rikku
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/ffx_rikku2.gif
LT: Her chin's kind of on the picture border. If you're willing to get the bottom of the face all the way in without sacrificing the resolution quality, that would be good. Don't have to, as I'll use this version if you don't. I could see many female goers using it.
Super Mario Bros. 3 - Fire Flower
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/mario_fireflower.gif
LT: Of course.
Sonic CD - Metal Sonic
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/sonic_metal1.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/sonic_metal2.gif
LT: Too much white/empty space. The croppings chosen aren't really that good either, especially the second one. Forget these. Maybe get an in-game picture of him.
Anime
YuYu Hakusho - Botan
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/yuyu_botan1.gif
LT: Something a bit more expressive from her. Plus her eyes annoy the hell out of me.
s-CRY-ed - Kazuma
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_kazuma1.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_kazuma2.gif
LT: Hating on this guy too. Evil eyes or some crud. I'd be up for a different shot of this guy.
s-CRY-ed - Ryuho
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_ryuho.gif
LT: A little fuzzy, but the resolution gets the job done.
s-CRY-ed - Cougar
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_cougar2.gif -> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_cougar2b.gif{A little fixing up on the contrast and brightness compared to the first one)
LT: Yep, good fix. White background is pretty lame, but it's reasonably fine. I'll reluctantly go for it.
s-CRY-ed - Mujo
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/scryed_mujo.gif
LT: Another crazy yelling anime face. Pass, sorry.
Other
VGDJ
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v199/Azuron/ocr_stuff/vgdj.gif - Could probobly be better if made with original of the graphic (so if you want an avatar for this, and this one isn't good enough, bug The Wingless about it :) )
LT: Aight, I'll bug John. Thanks for the idea though, as well as the accepted avatars ones you had here!

More sprites! (so I made a new post since the old one (http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2310138#2310138) was already long)
Did I already say that I love Sonic? :wink:
These sprite are from several games (S3&K, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Spinball, ...)
LT: The yellow Super Sonic one you did earlier, the one about to run, can you brighten that one too? It's too dark, now that I look at it again.

http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/NackT.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/NackT2.gif Nack the Weasel
LT: Too dark. Just use the first one.
Enjoy :)
edit: some Dig Dug for Oldschool. note: I couldn't use transparency on these ones because they have white parts on their edges. so I kept a black background, and I added a canvas for the same reason. they're really editable anyway.

edit again: this is K' dash from King of Fighter.
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/K.gif
LT: A little too pixelated; some of the edges are really rough.
Thanks for all the hard work here. Once you get the Genesis sprites brighter, we can add most of them.

I had my old Mario Kart DS emblem lying around. They're supposed to be 32x32, right?Where was that? Well if you don't want them, fine. I didn't see that one so I wanted to try one myself.
Here are some Tyrian ships:

I'm sorry. I made it around the time Mario Kart DS came out to use as my kart emblem and figured I'd save you the trouble of getting it right since it was a pain in the ass for me. Oh, and this was the first time I posted it, I believe.

LT: Hey, very nice on that second one, thanks. That's good teamwork! I might be selfish and suggest that we use that as an OCR Judge badge, since it sums up what we do. Otherwise, we'll make it a general avatar. Anyone wanna make a bigger (roughly 50x37) transparent thing like the pretzel logo djp uses? No big deal if not. I was just floating an idea out there.

All your Sega Genesis screen captures/sprites are too dark.sorry, it's probably an issue of the Genesis palette :(http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Vector1.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Tails3.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Spring2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Piranha.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/NackT.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Knuckles5.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SuperSonic5.gifhttp://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Vector1b.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Tails3b.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Spring2b.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Piranha2.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/NackTb.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Knuckles5b.gif http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/SuperSonic5b.gif
LT: Yeah, it's definitely the Genesis itself. I noticed looking at our screen cap for Sonic & Knuckles with Lover Reef that the title screen is dark. It's certainly not your fault. I didn't take the Knuckles one, because that sprite only works when he's attached to some sort of border/wall. It doesn't look right otherwise.

Thanks for all the hard work here. Once you get the Genesis sprites brighter, we can add most of them.:D

Why don't you just allow 80x80 sized avatars and get rid of the huge-ass signatures instead?
Okay, I'm not going to leave it at that. Forgive me while I hijack this thread, but you guys are defeating the purpose of an avatar. An avatar is supposed to define yourself uniquely in picture form. It's used for immediate recognition of a poster. Allowing people to only choose from a pre-defined set of avatars is essentially pointless.
Now you might think you can do the same with signatures, but why bother? They take up WAY more space than a custom avatar. Furthermore, thanks to no apparent signature limits at OCR, they tend to clutter the flow of posts and add unnecessarily to the page length.
I could go on, but I know this won't change anything anyway. Four years I've been on the forums, and it's all the same.

I know I don't post on OCR much, but I have to agree with Kaleb. I tend to identify posters first by their avatar, rather than by their nick.
I know on certain other boards, people see http://www.dragonwire.org/users/powerlord/images/eggmanpromox-125.png and know it's me.
Liontamer
03-26-2006, 11:07 PM
I'm gonna sum this up really quickly. Just like the game characters in the top right corner emphasizing the interests of this site, we use mostly VG avatars because that's the kind of fansite this is. We don't really care about uniqueness or the principle behind the avatar. It doesn't stop a fair amount of people from being recognized that way to begin with.
We have this system so the avatars don't look big, clunky and ugly with people using 80 different dimensions or animated GIFs cluttering up the look of the forum. If we used GFF's system, we'd just be copying GFF, which is ultimately a lame idea.
AFAIK, there will be sig limits under vB as well. But once we switch to vB, you know as well as I do that you can turn off viewing signatures entirely just like at GamingForce or any other vB-based forum, so why you're even complaining about them is beyond me.
by the way, points to nineko for the muthafuckin CHIP'S CHALLENGE avatar. if i wasn't deadset on my own little baby, i'd switch to that pronto

LT: It's not that it looks crappy, it just that there's no point in doing the avatar without the rocket itself being in there. And at that point, the shrinking would be too great.

Redid your Wario avatar.
LT: It just looks like it cut off the bottom of his feet. The sprite is pretty ugly anyway. There are better/cooler Wario pics out there.

Someone asked for Commender Keen... well, the character himself is hard to make, but I made some misc avatars from that game:

also, there is already an avatar from Commander Keen (http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/images/avatars/gallery/games/cmdrkeen.gif)

Currently in my ToDo list: misc. characters from SNK fighting games (King Of Fighters, Samurai Shodown, Fatal Fury). More at 11.

Some of the Micro Machine ones are the fugly, and some of the MUSCLE ones are colored so that they don't stand out enough from the white background. I also only took Higgin's dinosaur, since the Higgin's sprites either blend too much with the background or cut off. The rest are excellent, thanks.

Final Fantasy VI:
http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/22/ff3cactuar4up.gif
http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/9628/ff3kappa3uf.gif
LT: Yep.
Final Fantasy VII:
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/310/tifa0az.gif
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/8827/tifa3yn.gif
LT: Took the darker red one, I believe. One of 'em anyway, obviously no need for both.
Guilty Gear:
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/3001/ggdizzy29xi.gif Dizzy
LT: A butterface. Nah, I'm sure there are better pic choices.
Mario Kart:
http://img327.imageshack.us/img327/1800/yoshi3ke.gif
LT: Of course.
Puyo Puyo:
http://img123.imageshack.us/img123/4646/arle5eb.gif Arle
LT: Why not.
SMB:
http://img93.imageshack.us/img93/416/bowser22wu.gif Made the background black but it looks pretty cruddy.
LT: My suggestion would be to add a gold border around the edge of the pic, and shrink and center Boswer so none of him touches the border except his feet.
Space Harrier:
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/7145/spaceharrier20wc.gif
LT: Would make no sense if I hadn't seen the game once.
Street Fighter 3:
http://img123.imageshack.us/img123/18/chunli3bf.gif Chun-Li
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/1463/ibuki1oc.gif Ibuki
http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/8587/poison1nn.gif Poison
LT: For some reason, the scaling doesn't look 1:1. I think the pics look vertically squished. If not, make it 1:1. If so, add a solid background color, as the transparency somehow doesn't make it look right.
Tetris:
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/8473/tetris7fm.gif
LT: Cool. Can you provide any other letters in different colors?

Micro Machines for the NES (yay for diversity)
Shit, I remember that game.
It was awesome.
I've had a try at some, but so far I could just come up with Klonoa and Crash Bandicoot. :? If I have time I'll be able to find more and put them up for trying out.
[EDIT: Updated with Pikachu (Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire), Sora and Riku (Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories), Hamtaro, the girl and sprite from Secret of Mana, some long overdue coverage for SMB1 Mario (normal and super forms; take your pick), Eri from Metal Slug 2 (can anyone do Tarma? Most of the sprites I found for him were only just too big O.o), Curly and Balrog (Cave Story) and some Tetris blocks to compliment what Evilhead has already posted (separated to the line below).]

(Mostly) Gameboy sprite hunting for the win. O.o
LT: Some are too small or too dark. No point in some of these being so small though you probably can't help it given some are from the Gameboy. Klonoa, too small. Crash, too ugly, and I'm sure there's a better pic. Pikachu, too small. KH guys are ok. Hamtaro, too dark, not to mention hell naw. Just Purim from SoM. Get Super Mario in a better pose (standing, jumping). Took Eri and Curly. I spit on Balrog. Tetris blocks are TINY, no good. Use the 32x32 dimensions as best as possible. Thanks for the ones chosen so far.

I made two version of each, one with the border and background, and one with just the face.

LT: They're cool in principle, but they lacking in detail, so it's hard to even tell what they're supposed to be. If you didn't mention what game it was, I would have only been able to guess what the first one was. They look bad both close and from afar. The fact that they're Game Gear sprites is the problem, not that these were bad sprite rips, sorry.

LT: Those were subbed shortly after the first wave of new avatars a few months ago, so I've had those for a while. Don't worry about 'em.
Some are too small or too dark. No point in some of these being so small though you probably can't help it given some are from the Gameboy. Klonoa, too small. Crash, too ugly, and I'm sure there's a better pic. Pikachu, too small. KH guys are ok. Hamtaro, too dark, not to mention hell naw. Just Purim from SoM. Get Super Mario in a better pose (standing, jumping). Took Eri and Curly. I spit on Balrog. Tetris blocks are TINY, no good. Use the 32x32 dimensions as best as possible. Thanks for the ones chosen so far.
Took a while for the response, but that was much appreciated. Concerning sizes and color palettes, much of these were shown like that in their respective games to begin with (with the exception of Balrog which I had to cut down to half the size). I had some trouble trying to resize Pikachu and the Tetris blocks in particular, which lead with some of these stretched out pixels when incorporating them as GIFs.
I would work on these a little more, but given that I'm at home for Easter with such limited hardware/software, I can't do that right now. Unless, if there's someone willing to help me out on those icons that didn't quite make it, I will easily hump your leg like there's no tomorrow. :)
Plus, if someone can actually make a better Crash avatar than I did (which when I did mine I took the original icon taken from Crash Nitro Kart on the GBA), I will seriously be greatful. I see little to no love for many of these PlayStation oriented "heroes", so to speak O.o

I'd like to do all four planes besides the green one. The first plane is a boss and the last is from the intro.
This one is for Nineko. He said he was having trouble resizing it: http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/nineko01_32x32_trans.gif
Method: Crop image, indexed color-->RGB mode, contrast +34, resize 32x32, draw eye in b&w, save as gif.
LT: First two were grainy/pixelated. Second two don't even look like anything. Rhino/Mother 3 thing lacks detail also, which I said was going to be the case if one resized the full pic.

Gnome is rather ugly. Well, it is a gnome. Res still looks kind of dull (I know you're trying, so don't take it wrong), so if you can sharpen it more withot going overboard, I'll take it. Still an ugly bastard.
Human, sharpen him up a bit more.
Tauren could be shifted to the right a little bit, to better center him.
Undead, same as Tauren, plus a little sharper.
Everything else looks good. Hopefully we can add everything, but it's up to djp.

LT: Hahaha! This should be fun. No reason to get worked up on avatars and pout like a child. But then again, it IS the internet. Quotes in black from me are from a prior post, since he didn't actually use [quote].
LT: First two were grainy/pixelated.
http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/gigawing_green_trans.gif http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/gigawing_boss_crop.gif
Huh? The point I'm trying to make is that these weren't resized. I think the green plane had no resizing at all. Maybe the boss pic too. How do you get off calling them "grainy" when I had to chop off the wings to get them at full size?
LT: The fact that the rips are perfect doesn't matter if the image looks cruddy in the first place. Why would I want a couple of planes where the wings were chopped off?
LT: Second two don't even look like anything.
http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/gigawing_red_intro_cockpit.gif http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/gigawing_green_firing_orig.gif
Huh??? The red plane cockpit is damn near perfect. Especially for this game. You can't capture a plane at 32x32, that much I've learned.
LT: That's right, you can't capture most planes at 32x32. Simple as that. You cropped the cockpit so tightly that you'd have to check the filename just to be sure of what it is, and you're right, it IS a nice image, but 1 1/2 wings are cut out just to make it fit. It's gotta be very recognizable just from glancing at it.
LT:Rhino/Mother 3 thing lacks detail also, which I said was going to be the case if one resized the full pic.
http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/nineko01_32x32_trans.gif
I know you can't do better yourself bro, because I spent hours on this one. I would upload others, but you seem to have an anti-plane philosophy.
LT: Why would I care if I could do better myself? I don't have a pirated copy of Photoshop, and I'm not choosing to make these, so I don't care. The rhino rocket's too small to show detail, end of story.
An anti-plane philosophy? Even though it's not true, and it's awfully deep for something so trivial, SURE. If it makes you feel better, I'm anti-plane. (Why I accepted some Tyrian ships and went inconsistent with my own philosophy I'll never know, but clearly...)
Suggesting Mario Shroom is good when it clearly has pixelated borders is overboard:
http://liquid-crystal.tv/gigawing2/nineko_Mushroom.gif
Yeah that's not pixelated at all. Especially compared to bender.
LT: Super Mario Bros. 1 sprites are going to look overly simplistic and pixelated. :lol: It's when people submit pixelated resizes of stuff that had smooth renderings that it's a problem...much like the Bender avatar below; thanks for providing a good example of something that's not good enough.

Dude I'm on a 1440 x 900 screen and your avatars still look bad. Grow up. They're just avatars. And he's not saying "NO NEVER" he's saying they'll have to look a lot better before he'll use them. I had to redo my avatars a few times before LT okayed them. I still have a few that are too pixelated and they were not resized. Sometimes, game graphics just suck. Look at my Guilty Gear avatars. They're all really pixelated, but they aren't resized at all. They are all straight game rips and they look pretty bad.
IckesTheSane
04-18-2006, 06:35 PM
Ok, I've just got a few questions for LionTamer, or whoever else has a good answer...
I was thinking of making a few avatars from some old old IBM PC Jr. games (like a Commadore, but different). In particular, Jumpman and Kings Quest...
So three questions. I know the picture has to be 32x32, but can it be smaller? one picture I have is 31x12, would it work to 'turn it in' like that? Also, being that old, if the references are to obscure, would they still become avatars? And finally, anything from a system that old is going to look grainy unless it was totally redone (which I think looses some of its character).. would they be rejected because they're grainy/pixelated?
Thanks in advance!
LT: 1. Pictures can be smaller. I'd prefer they were generally square/rectangular, even if smaller than 32x32, but I'd have to see the image you're thinking of just to be sure.
2. Obscurity isn't too much of a factor as long as the image looks appealing and it's from a game. If it's not from a game, obscurity hurts the chances.
3. Well, it really all depends on how the images look. If they're not appealing, I'm just not gonna take 'em. There were some old icons of Windows games like Solitare and whatever that I rejected for that reason. You might not have seen me mention way back, but I was asking for someone to get an image of Munch-Munch from Number Munchers for the Apple IIe. If that's not simple, I dunno what is. So, repeating myself, it's all in how the image looks. Post what you have and I'll give you my honest opinion.
Edit:
Awesome, thanks! I'll hopefully be able to get something up before too long, though I'm hardly a Photoshop / Gimp expert so it might not be too soon.

Still need to crop them down, and make the background transparent, but those are the images I was going to get them from.
Transparency test:

LT: First one could be a go, if you actually get the transparency working on it. The second one looks like nothing; it's too abstract!
EDIT: Now that you have the transparency working though, the image seems no good unfortunately. The skin color is so light that it blends too much with the background, making the image hard to see.

ok heres one of link that i would like to have added if possible.

LT: Looks like a fan-made sprite. If not, it's still pretty ugly. Sorry, but pass.

LT: Too pixelated; looks like a poorly done resize. If those can be smoothed out a little more or resized with a better program, those would be good, except for the 3rd one. Thanks for your effort here.
More like a poorly done crop.
Those are the images from the character select screen, cropped since they were bigger than 32 x 32, but no resizing.
Since I recently reformated my hd, and haven't gotten around to installing any software on it, I can't fix those up for ya, but maybe someone else can do it. I'll see if I can get the screenshot I used.

Bah,I wish I had known about the 32x32 format sooner, thought it was 40x40 so I have to redo several of the avatars I had made. Oh well, not necessarily a bad thing, just tiring because I made so many. Here are the ones I made -AFTER- I discovered the proper format and what not.
These are avatars all from different Castlevania's.
Note: I will probably edit this later to add my additional avatars. I'd consider it double-posting on my part if I posted again more of my Castlevania avatars when I could just include them here when I am completely done with them...again.
LT: Only 4 and 6 look good so far. The rest don't look detailed enough.
1) Sonia Belmont - Castlevania Legends for the Gameboy and she was also meant to be the starring Belmont in Castlevania: Resurrection along with Victor, whom I like to call the 'Reluctant Belmont'.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Sonia_CR.gif
2) Richter Belmont - Castlevania Symphony of the Night (Also in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood) This is his evil look.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/RichterEvil_CSOTN.gif
His more peaceful:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Richter_CSOTN.gif
3) Mathias Cronqvist - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
This one is a bit blurry, but I tried to make it as clear as possibly without looking to ugly and sharp.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Mathias2_CLOI.gif
(I plan on remaking the other one I had of him)
4) Adrian 'Alucard' Tepes - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
This one also isn't my best, but I tried to make it fairly clear and not so sharp and ugly just like Mathias.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Alucard_CSOTN.gif
5) Walter Bernard - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence, supposedly the main villian of LOI.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Walter_CLOI.gif
6) Soma Cruz - Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (Dawn of Sorrow) This is the more traditional Ayami Kojima style and not the anime style (which I am working on) as they did for Dawn of Sorrow.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/SomaKojima_CAOS.gif
7) Sarah - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Sarah_CLOI.gif
8) Maxim Kishine - Castlevania: Harmony of Dissidence
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Maxim_CHOD.gif
9) Mathias Cronqvist - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
(I personally think this is the better looking one of the two I've made.)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/Mathias_CLOI.gif
10) Leon Belmont - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
(This was a render of the character)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/Goddess_Gwen/LeonRend_CLOI.gif
11) Joachim Armster - Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
(This one is decent to me and decent is not like 'awesome' to me but rather in between.)

in one of my older posts I was asked to redo Donald Duck using a sprite from a game. here we go:

LT: If the feet on the Donalds didn't cut off, I'd maybe take one, but the face also looks weird. Rest of the pixely faces don't look good.
Slider (oldschool +1):
http://digilander.iol.it/sambevolley/avatars/Slider01.gif
LT: Doesn't really look like anything.
Also, do we need pokémon?
LT: Nah, we don't. But seriously, these all look like amateur fan sprites, transparency or not. If they were actually from games, then they were poorly made games. There are clearly better Pokemon sprites out there. You should have put these in a ZIP though, to save yourself the time of doing all these URLs.

I know that all of these (the pokémon ones) lack transparency, they are a batch conversion from a different archive. I'm going to fix only the ones that Larry is going to approve, since I already know he won't take all of these (they are about 250).

Do we have any other submissions? I've read through every post again just to make sure I had no other revisions I've missed, and double checked that I've gotten everything I've wanted so far.
Provided the djp doesn't axe a bunch of them for being redundant, we're up to approximately 700 avatars total. I've reorganized the sorting for the avatars to go by company for some of the areas where we have a lot of images, plus I've renamed most of the existing ones so they're more easily identifiable. So when everything gets implemented, it's highly likely you'll have to reselect your avatars.
I'm still taking in new images, so please keep them coming, and thanks to everyone who has helped so far.

Why don't you give it a shot? About 80% of making avatars is cropping/resizing, so you're pretty much asking someone to do all the work for you.

WoW Stuff
LT: Very very nice stuff. I'm sure these will be used a lot, since this game is pretty hot right now. Ok, what didn't I take:
Gnome is rather ugly. Well, it is a gnome. Res still looks kind of dull (I know you're trying, so don't take it wrong), so if you can sharpen it more withot going overboard, I'll take it. Still an ugly bastard.
Human, sharpen him up a bit more.
Tauren could be shifted to the right a little bit, to better center him.
Undead, same as Tauren, plus a little sharper.
Everything else looks good. Hopefully we can add everything, but it's up to djp.
Res? which one is Res?
anyways, not a whole lot I can do about the gnome's ugliness :P
also not a whole lot i can do about the cropping on the tauren or the undead. that's the way blizzard cropped them for the menus and that's all i have to work with (outside of taking ingame screenshots which would look like complete ass).
i'll see what i can do about sharpening up the ones you mentioned though (still dunno what you mean by Res).
LT: Sorry about that. "The resolution still looks kind of dull." Try sharperning the gnome and human a bit more. If the cropping on the rest is simply how you got them, then that's fine; I'll look at them again. I just wouldn't have wanted something where we took it when it was a bad crop job. Thanks yo.

If its from some old game system like SNES, Genesis, NES, etc. You can reduce the color palette to 256 colors (or 16 depending on the system). Also, if its a size reduction, use nearest neighbor interpolation instead of bicubic or bilinear.

Gifs only go up to 256 colors, and for something like re-sizing, I'd personally stay away from "Nearest Neighbor". My reasoning is, that while Bicubic and Bilinear may make an image or a sprite blurry, Nearest Neighbor actually throws out pixel data. This makes reconstruction a lot harder, because at least some (if not a lot) of what you're working on just essentially vanished. At least with Bilinear and Bicubic, you can go in, clean up the image and redraw areas with the pencil tool so they're clearer... and you'd have a fuzzy guide remaining for what and where things are.

No prob LT. I did a little more adjusting to them so they stood out a bit more. Here's the whole lot of them...

LT: Excellent, bro. You're right, these looks even better than the first revision. Thanks a lot for brightening these up. When I selected these last time and saw them as a group, they all looked good, but I didn't notice how dark they were until comparing them to other avatars. This fixes them up nicely!

Okay, my last two submissions, because I won't have any more access from my computer.
The DOOM Skull:http://img424.imageshack.us/img424/8162/skull4cd.gif
A funny sprite of Link:http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/2403/link3lg.gif
LT: Pass on both. Skull is too small, and would look better with a background rather than a transparency effect, though I doubt it would look good enough to use. Link is a decent idea, but I don't like the bug-eyes.

Consider it done :) The GIF that's used here had a lot of white space around it, so no resizing/pixel removal was necessary.

But that's what was so funny about it...
Do we have any Secret of Mana avatars, besides the main character?

Yes a billion times, just fix the blue background
I think the SF avatars would look fine with transparent backgrounds.

There's one of Randi up right now, and he accepted what I did with Purim. I hope this answers your question. O.o

Heh heh, I don't really know their names.
I might submit a rabite one if there isn't one.
Randi's the boy you get at the start, and Purim is the girl with the blonde hair that comes with you.
I also had a try at a pose with Popoie (the sprite child), but that didn't come through. Could that be something you might consider?

LT: I remember pretty much all of these from last time (http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2284409#2284409). They all still have poor resolution. The lil' green and purple things needs transparent backgrounds, not white background. The CV Death one is cool, but he's on a black background and over half his body/cloak is black, so it just blends into the background, which is no good.
Last time, they weren't resizes, they were fan-made gifs... this time, they were actual resizes. Death just needs a better source gif, it was crap to begin with. The High Quality source art loses alot when you resize it that small. I don't see how the Rufus is any worse than the Cloud that I am already using. Regardless, I'll get the Mooninites to you as soon as I can though, I didn't notice that they didn't have transparancy.
LT: Well, if the art doesn't look good enough when you resize it, that's either the fault of the original picture size or the program used to make the resizes. Personally I stick with Photoshop and don't mess with anything else. No matter what program you're using though, these resizes aren't sharp enough, and that's why I didn't take them. Otherwise they mostly look good.
Personally, I agree with you that the Rufus picture is better than your Cloud avatar. However, the Cloud one is from the very beginning of the forums 4+ years ago when the image quality was generally weaker and less picky. Right now, we're generally going for images that look hi-res and high quality.
The Before Crisis ones come from this wallpaper

LT: This art is cool enough. If someone could make high quality resizes of some of the heads, I'd take them.

I make a horned god or rather Darrian AShoka one. Not sure yet.

Well, aside from being extremely pixelated, they seem pretty light. If you are trying to lighten up sprites, try messing with the saturation and brightness rather than lightness. It makes them look better.

No, straight rip.
Give me a little time for the whole sprites.
Alternatively, you could try using a filter like Super Eagle or HQ2X.

Morrigan, Dan. any suggestions for the background?

I think the SF avatars would look fine with transparent backgrounds.for sure. everything looks fine with a transparent background, but it's hard to do when you resize something, because there are shitloads of stray pixels to remove. so a colored background is the lazy way to fix stuff :)

I could remove the stray pixels for you if you like... Doesn't take much time in Paint really. Those backgrounds are just fugly.
