Dafydd Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Not sure, but here's the next version of the TT avatars... Better? Worse? WTF? LT: The images are too pixelated, i.e. they look like poo to begin with. Care to try with some other Teen Titan headshots? I'm not looing for a fight here, but what defines "pixelated"? I mean, why are the above "pixelated" when something like these is perfectly acceptable: Not to mention these: And the most beautiful of them all: LT: Because sprites are supposed to look that way. Resized pictures aren't.
Specter Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Since you liked my Solid Snake avatar, here are some more codec screen ones. Personally, I don't think they turned out as well, but it's not really my call. Col. Cambell Liquid Snake Mei Ling Meryl Naomi Hunter Natasha Romenko (sp? I forget her last name) Otacon LT: You're right, they didn't turn out as well!
Dafydd Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 Because sprites are supposed to look that way. Resized pictures aren't. AND they have to be non-ugly. Meh. I give up.
Polo Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 Some Earthbound: LT: All except that nigga sphere. That's just...eerie. Look at 'im. Nall from Lunar: LT: Coo. And from my previous post: Pocky and Rocky (SNES): Yay or nay? LT: My bad. Check it. P: My thanks, good sir.
The Coop Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Good, Larry is back Time to work, then: (avatars)LT: Ironically enough, now they're a bit too light. Adjust 'em a little more. These would make great additions. I redid them, take a look: LT: Still a bit too dark. Can you brighten them without causing them to turn whiter? If Nineko doesn't have a problem with it, I can try adjusting these. LT: Nike - Just do it.
Nineko Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Alright... give me baby one more time Sorry for the late response, I'm really busy with TV stuff and everything. But I think these are OK now, I tried to balance brightness, contrast, and gamma correction in the best way I can. Anyway, Larry, there are 3 or 4 sets of these avatars available right now so you may also pick some from each set if you think they look good in one of the previous ways (because, the source pics are not all bright in the same way, so also the edits can be better in different ways. lol engrish, but I'm sure you got what I mean). And Coop, feel free to rework them as many times as you want, it's not like they are copyrighted LT: Good try. I prefer your Boswer here, so I took that. Otherwise snagged the Coop, which were a little too bright, but weren't too dark and were fine overall.
Polo Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Better? LT: A bit, but the contrast wasn't high enough. The white dots almost bled into the green background. Ultimately went with The Coop's version. Thanks though for taking a look at it.

If Nineko doesn't have a problem with it, I can try adjusting these. LT: Nike - Just do it. Gave it a whirl... LT: Bueno! I took all but the Bowser one. For Bowser, I used one of the images where the different colors of his eyebrows were visible, since yours is too bright.
The Coop Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Made some new ones that I don't think have been covered. The first nine are from an old Taito game called Chack 'n Pop, with the last seven being from the immortal Space Invaders. LT: Nah on the Bubble Bobbles. All the sprites are touching the borders while it has a background, which looks awful. I'd say forget 'em. The Space Invader ones...just too plain. Very simple sprite with the simplest background there is; just boring. I'd rethink 'em if they had cooler backgrounds, though I dunno how one would pull that off.
Nineko Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 From GenDisc: Can this please please please please be an avatar (resize as necessary)? Also, I'll sell my soul if it's an avatar that only I can use. Here you go (some versions so Larry can pick his favorite one): LT: I prefer the Shark2 version, but the crappiness of the source image prevents the resize from looking sharp enough. Keep working on it.
Atomic Dog Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Thanks nineko. I wasn't sure where to put this. It's gotta have the suit. It doesn't make sense without the suit.
The Coop Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Thanks nineko. I wasn't sure where to put this. It's gotta have the suit. It doesn't make sense without the suit. It's also pretty hard to see what it is. I have a feeling that as it is right now, it'd be passed on for being too blurry, and/or not being able to tell what it is without an explanation. Speaking of Larry, where'd he go?
Gollgagh Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 I decided to try out photoshop. Haruhi Suzumiya Retries: Edit: wow, now I'm not so sure about them. comments? LT: I'm picky, but these need to be a bit sharper. The last three have the best chance of making it.
Polo Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 The guy from Crystalis: LT: Coo. King Dedede (Kirby's Adventure): LT: Coo, but can you flip him facing to the right?. If not, no big deal. Kuros from Wizards & Warriors: LT: Would take it, but his feet cut off at the bottom. Any way you can do a fixed version? And that man-eating fish from Mario 3: LT: Ha!
Spotnick Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 There ya go, shoved up a quick one. Edward Elric from the Fullmetal Alchemist-series. LT: Quality's pretty poor; the image isn't clear, the transparency of the edges isn't clean. Nah.
Gollgagh Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 If Larry's not gonna do it, could we get someone else to choose? This is pretty frustrating btw.
Liontamer Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 If Larry's not gonna do it, could we get someone else to choose?This is pretty frustrating btw. The fate of mankind isn't at stake. You can wait.

Keep working on it. I gave it one more try, but it won't look better than this, due to the source pic: LT: I'd like to, but honestly need the avatar to look better. When you get a better source image, post this one again.
Polo Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 King Dedede (Kirby's Adventure): LT: Coo, but can you flip him facing to the right?. If not, no big deal. Ah yes, of course: LT: Normally facing left or right doesn't matter, but something just didn't look right for that Dedede one. Thanks. Kuros from Wizards & Warriors: LT: Would take it, but his feet cut off at the bottom. Any way you can do a fixed version? Alas, that's his full height - no black pixels under his feet. I could add some in but at the cost of clipping (or comically rounding) his head: LT: Unable to get a good resize? I know how sometimes resizing by one pixel only causes the image to look distorted, but perhaps give it a try. Otherwise, just gimme the full image. EDIT: Wait a minute, here we go! Looking closely, I found there were three rows of pixels on Kuros's helmet that looked the same. I cut one of them... and he doesn't look too retarded imo. LT: Sweeeet.
Doulifée Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 http://www.ocremix.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2675040#2675040 updated. look like i forgot a few pixels >_> damn.
