bler bler bler....
Wow. Was that really necessary?
these are so ridiculously generic i doubt anyone really cares about the origins. it's like trying to put a copyright on sand. The mods might disagree but IMO it's trivial.
Maybe so. I'll try and explain where I'm coming from better.
It's true these kind of sprites aren't exactly cubism and I
know that seeing these so often can get old. I'm with you on that -
believe me. But, it is how many of these kids get started with pixeling, so we (at that guild) try and take those sprites and share some of the basic techniques (like AAing, contrasting colors and shades, basic shading, etc.) The progress can be glacial, but I'd rather try and improve the situation than just let it get worse. What we don't want to encourage is people simply taking someone else's work (even an edit) and using it directly as their own. Most of these kids don't know it's wrong right out of the gate, so we try and take a strong stance on it.
Listen, I'm not pointing at this kid and saying to anyone, '
HE'S A WITCH! BURN HIM!'. He's just a kid who's taking credit for an edit. I'm just putting that info out there so I can stem the tide of 'Another BYOND ripper. lol', if/when someone else had pointed out the situation. We're not all like that and I wanted to do right by the pixelation forums.
/shrug. Anyway, crit the sprite or do whatever you'll do.
