i have the old pro motion (4.7).  Does the animation light table function use the current palette of colors to render the semi-opaque image?  I think I have to expand my palette to double its size (adding a semi-opaque entry for every color) to draw the image and then remove palette entries when saving final image.  any comments/workarounds?

also - does the new version have any workflow improvements / new functions?  Is it worth upgrading?

its not actually for anything in particular.  (thanks pep)

Hi,

Sorry to all my little students.  There are others who you can be taught by here, whose skill far surpasses mine, both as teacher and artist.
I must disappear for a while (my whiles are fairly long..) as I have just picked another contract doing art for a T-shirt company.  3 jobs does not leave much time for pixel art in general.  I am working on a game for Nintendo DS so I may come back in a month or so to show you some of the art.  In the meantime, have fun, keep pixelling and if you REALLY want to talk to me about pixelart send an email to liefjorgensen@hotmail.com or see 'lief' on msn.  bye bye for now!

hi all.  been away for a while, got a game contract which should keep me going for about a year...
ill stop in occasionally to say hello, good luck with the new forum.  quite a spectacular way for pixelation to die eh?
