Title: I Spy with my Pixel Eye! (oct 14 - 21)
Post by: AlexHW on October 14, 2006, 06:11:28 pm: I spy with my pixel eye, something... Yellow!

Your goal:
Figure out what thing has been spied. It could be anything.
When you think you have the answer, you must pixel it!
Pixeling the correct thing will stop the activity, and the secret will be revealed. The person who guesses right will be declared the winner.
Throughout the week, clues shall be given pertaining to what the thing is.
If nobody figures out the thing being spied with my little pixel eye, then the pixeled image will be revealed at the end of the week and the activity will end.

Rules:
Use a minimum of 4 colors.
Your pixeled image must not be rushed too much.

Winners:
Those who spy the secret pixel thing are invited to pixel the next secret pixel image for the next activity.
You'd be required to supply the pixel image and handful of clues to a moderator so as to set up the next activity.
Please make sure that neither the actual object or the clues are too specific or obscure.
If the invitation is declined, the offer will be open for anyone.

You can edit the palette in MSpaint. just double click on a colour.

I know. ;D It was just a meaningless restriction I put on myself.

@robalan: Damn.

@me: Wow, my liger looks horrible on an LCD screen. The monitors at school don't have enough contrast. :(
