Hay!
Is it a bad thing to use the same palette as is used in a game that you like?

General Discussion / Photoshop/Graphics Gale
« on: April 14, 2008, 06:19:59 pm »
Hey... I have Graphics Gale as well as an ancient version of Photoshop (6.0).
With GG I am unable to save PNGs with an alpha layer, making the background transparent.
Also, I don't really like the pen-tool here... The one in Photoshop works better for me.
In Photoshop however, I don't know how to find that cool preview-window that GG has.
Like, when you are pixelling on something which is magnified a lot, you can see how it turns
out at 1:1 ratio. The grid is also kind of weird compared to the one in GG.
Does anyone know how to solve any of these problems? Will help me decide which one I'm
going to use!

Pixel Art / [WIP] Game, need help with colors
« on: April 12, 2008, 01:47:30 pm »
Greetings!
I am primarily a programmer, and I'm struggling to make some tiles for a simple game.
My biggest problem right now, is that the colors I am using are horrible. I am trying to
make a water-tile, a grass-tile and so on... I really love the Zelda series of games, so
I am trying to get some inspiration from those.
The tiles are disgustingly ugly at this point, I just needed something to be able to run
the code. I'll be back for advice concerning the pixelling later, but right now I just
want to get some tips on choosing colors.
