Title: The Official Secret Santa 2007
Post by: Robot Santa on December 24, 2007, 10:05:47 am
YOU'VE ALL BEEN VERY, VERY NAUGHTY INDEED!
I'm going to tear off your skin like wrapping paper and deck the halls with your guts!






I kid I kid.
Anyway, Panda here.

I know many of you are impatient and thrilled already, and perhaps won't even read this part and jump straight to the gifts, looking for yours like crazy, but let me thank you all who took part in this activity.

Today we just received brand new carpets at our Pixelation HQ, and they look a hell lot like alkaline, baccaman21, infinity+1, Kren and Zlajonja. Oh la la. Yes they are banned now.

To those with WIPs or placeholders, you have 3 weeks until I start hunting you down. If you don't have your gift done by then, you will be banned. Remember, finish your gifts by the 15th of January. Start working on them NOW  :mean:

If anyone encounters any error (wrongly linked presents or similar) please post about it on this thread and we will try to fix it as soon as possible.

So enough talking from my part, hope you enjoy your presents.
Season greetings to you all.

Haha very lovely all of them :)
Thanks alot l3m0n5, I can see you put alot of time into it. I love it!

To BG: Well, so viking + Phantasy Star = Robot Viking? Something like that anyway. It just sorta popped into my mind.
Snake you need to be robbed of your talent.
Ptoing's is very lovely too I must say.
And the one with Vegeta dressed as a christmas tree made me lol.

Holy Moly!

There are so many great entries, can't say which are my favourites atm.. ALL are great! Many thanks to dyuaru, I think it was really hard to find something, which fitted to my stuff, but you made a really good joke out of it, good work!

l3m0n5>
First I thought it would be funny to do a parody of the Coca-Cola Santa (with holding a Quick Noodles packing instead of a bottle), but then I realised, that the PR-Campaigns aren't the same all over the world, so the joke would get lost. So, here's the ref (http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c62/markusrosse/junk/secret_santa_ref.png). Hope you like it anyway ;)

OMG Mil! Thank you so much!  :-* And you made me two things! Love the Cerinthe "portrait" with all the sea details. You made him look so good too. And the mini-sprite of Bore and Alis is just too adorable! <3


Have to say that there are alooot of really awesome presents here. Great job everyone who finished on time!

huZba, haha! Nice! Made me laugh, and it's pretty nice to boot. I can only look at the image and read the dialogue in the voice of Skeletor, now. It's perfect.

Overall, I really dug this. Seems like this year's batch had a lot more 'oomph' compared to last. The screwy sleeping schedule that will be haunting me for the next few weeks is worth it! Totally glad I participated.

Thank you nitram :-*

some absolutely amazing submissions this year, the animations are especially sick :o
my pick would have to go to Khris's triple threat, looks almost default mspaint palette


And yup, it's been christmas here for 15 minutes, so consider this the first official "merry christmas" (http://wayofthepixel.net/pixelation/Smileys/default/perky.gif)

These presents are nice. I think it's a bit harsh to ban those people though. Especially baccaman, he gives presents to us throughout the year in the form of really helpful advice, it's counter-productive to ban people like him, it's more like a punishment for the rest of us which isn't fair.

I must say I do think that anyone who did not make anything should be banned. Regardless of who he is.
He had more then 20 days to complete it. Of course there is the chance that something serious came up.
But if he simply forgot, or didn't plan his time right etc he simply needs to be banned like anyone else.
However, I do think that someone like Baca would have a good reason. I havent seen him around in a while either.

I'm just thinking about it logically; by banning baccaman, pixelation loses out, not baccaman himself.

glad you like it Xeno-Striker! Im not sure if the "power metal" part got through right... first wanted to give the dragon big boots and maybe a vicking hat or something but didnt have the time...

Pixelgnome: Nice pic! Im sure Brock Samson or Ghengis Khan (or both?!) is somewhere off-screen waiting to tear that guys' tentacles off with his knife... and then crab ninjas appear out of nowhere and epic fight ensues!

Snake, awesome pic! I already cant wait for next years' secret santa to see what other uber piece you'll whip out! (you seem to be doomed to forever get video game related picture subjects... its your gift... your curse...)

Junkboy, awesome anim! woah!

Khris, nice work with the three mockups

Dude..what did you want? I'll pixel somethin' for ya'. In fact who all didn't get there presents? I can try and be a good charitable person, and pixel some late gifts for you guys, as I'm all alone for Christmas(was stuck at home, away from family...work won't let me go for holidays). 

Also, I'm I the only one who is fascinated by the great texture job on kendi64's gift to Flaber? Such a smooth and near flawless piece. Much wuv..

We should all do gifts to those who were left without any! gogogo!
Those who didn't get gifts, repost here what your request was on the original thread!

B.O.B.: That's very charitable of you, and if yuo do in fact really want to, something small and naturelike would be cool, like, leaves(filigree) and birds or treebranch antlers. Something foresty looking. If you make it, I would honestly love you forever and be your bestest friend in the whole wide world.

Please though, if you do make something, just go hella quick and simple, no need to go over the top. Something you can whip up in 25-30 minutes would definitely do. :D

You can be my christmas miracle~!

MaDsk8tard: That rocks. Fatty caps for a Christmas win! I'll be thinking of you when I'm out busting virtual skulls in the new year. Good capture of the style.

Ooh, zombie elf. Nice one, Malor!

Great detailing on the tree in your gift, Buloght

Love the Santa Club, AdamAtomic. Must be how he's kept his secret workshop a secret all these years.

Nitram: Looking great so far. Nose could use a little work, but I like what you've done. I hope you finish soon

Thank you so much for the gift Marilii! Some lovely beaked dragons, guess you noticed my weakness for dragons :9 Looks like that took quite some time to do as well with all that dithering. Grand work :D

I'm glad you enjoyed your gift Cave. I had a hell of a time trying to figure out how to mix all the game-characters with the male nudity. Used two solid days doing nothing but thinking about it. The candy palette you asked for was the hardest one to tackle :hehe: Was really aiming to make it greater than this, breaking borders, but the illness hit somewhat inconveniently, so the best I could do was just finish up what I could. Good to hear you were happy with it.

So many great entries this year. Junkboy's unicorn made me laugh pretty hard considering what buloght wished for :9 Loved that Mario from Panda. Lovely palette in MashPotato's gift. ..I think I'll stop there or I'll be going through the whole list. Awesome work everybody. Merry christmas!

Oops, I forgot to check my present until now... forgot about it after the whole thread organizing and all, and then I had to go.
Hahaha, so awesome Sven, thank you very much. Love it. 

I'm glad you like it Larwick. I was working on something else at first, but I run out of creativity juice for it. Uhm perhaps if I finish it at some point I will give it to you as a random present uhmm...

As for the baccaman21 matter, he will stay banned no matter how valuable he and his crits are. He will be missed, but I won't apply any favoritism on anyone while being on admin duties.

Don't be too quick to judge. I think he's just experimenting.
There's the un-AA'd ear and area, and the red box on the image above shows a curve that's AA'd far better then you would get from photoshop or resizing.

Everyone's presents were really nice this year. I took great pleasure at looking at all of them. Frankie's animation was impressive and Snake always blows me away. A special mention of Ptoings Zero-Suit Tingle as well.

I'd be willing to play a part in the collab. I've yet to do one and I think it'd be fun.

To BG: Well, so viking + Phantasy Star = Robot Viking? Something like that anyway. It just sorta popped into my mind.
Thanx! It's awesome! ;D

And that's adorable BG! Basically one of the cutest things ever. ;D
Glad you like it  :)

It feels weird not being in on the Secret Santa for the first time D:

I was really disappointed to not see you on the sign up list, maybe next year?

Whelp, I know it's late, but I finally finished Quark's make-up gift. Hope you likes, Quark, as I'm not good with portraits, filigree, antlers, trees, or birds. Hell, but I'm still one of the best at making sure no one knows just what the hell is going on in a piece. Noise, noise, NOISE, NEED MORE NOISE AND DETAILS!!!

Heh, Merry belated X-mas, and New Years to all

(please don't ban me  :( )

I like it. The faded ink look on the scroll is really neat. I also like the incorporation of yellows and pinks on this piece. It seems like you've learned something from your last piece of subdued grays and vibrant yellows.

Blought.. it's amazing.  I love the tree and especially the colors on the character.  That would be a weird game, I wounder how it'd work. :P

Just a little reminder for those who sent in WIPs, but you have around 1 week left to finish your gifts.
Otherwise you will be banned.

And as an unrelated note, around 2 weeks or so until, the banned crew can come back.

Hey frankiesmileshow, here's a more complete version of your xmas present.  I really wanted it to include genghis and the gang but I'm not good enough with the ol' pixels yet, this is only my 2nd  pixel art attempt, maybe some day..

For now, enjoy and have a festive january!

*psst* Since it's a gift and all, I think it would be fair and recommendable that you tell your references (http://features-temp.cgsociety.org/gallerycrits/36092/36092_1095187361.jpg). It does not lower the value of your gift and the effort put to it, but like in every picture here, if someone uses heavy reference, they're advisedd to tell about it.

Cheers  :)

HuZba.

You are the proverbial man.

And I still haven't finished my christmas present. I feel like I'm denying someone his birthday, I'm the saltscum of the earth. I know.

I ask that Panda keep me safely banned until you've recieved your gift.

That's all. I'm working on it.


Panda, you're welcome to use my phrasing when you humiliate my remains pubicly. Something like this:

Jad is the worst procrastinator on the face of this planet. Hiding behind gleeful blobs of orange, his true self is simply that of a liar and slowpoke.

If you're not able to take your time for this kind of activity for TWO MONTHS of time, you're just plain stupid. Which is what Jad is.

I'm kind of kidding but then again I'm not. Anyways, see you later guys, I'll be back when I reincarnate from drowning in this pool of shame. All love to you huzba ; _ ;
