Hey, I'm code wizard. I am 20 years old and as you might of guessed I'm a programmer. For the most part I want to be able to pixel my own game graphics. I have tried before, but I failed pretty hard. So basically I am here to learn...

Oh pixel artists of the interwebs, lend me your pixelating knowledge!

Hello good folks, thought I would celebrate the new year by joining and making a few posts.
My name is Christofer and I'm 22 years old. I live in sweden and have a beard.

I've been lurking for a while which has resulted in me having to pick my jaw up from the floor a couple of times.
I'm absorbing all the knowledge there is here and soon I will become allmighty.

At the moment I'm learning to draw with pen and paper, like, the eye goes in the face and such. Then I will proceed in learning to open MSPaint.

Hey, I'm Josh, 21 years old from the south coast of England.  I've been pixelling on-and-off for about 3 years now altho most of my pixels from the first couple of years would make you cringe.  I first started making pixel signitures for friends on runescape.  I did some sprites for a basic game a mate was making a couple of years ago which eventually was scrapped, and I'd love to make my own game but lack the programming skills and unfortunately I would probably give up on the project as time went on.  A while back I saw a link to this community and so I signed up and posted a few of my pieces and forgot about it a bit.  A couple of weeks back I started pixeling again and came back to this site.

I've been trying to branch out of just doing Runescape based pixels, my main problem tho is getting inspiration and I usually spend too long on the linework/sketches that I get bored and give up :-[.  Im really looking forward to the next mock-up challenge as I've never attempted that before.  I know it's not really something that others can help with but if anyones got any advice on how to be find inspiration it would really be appreciated cause I feel that's the main thing holding me back at the moment, I just can't think what to do.

Outside of pixelling I am studying Maths and Physics at university, I am teaching myself bass guitar and used to be an avid rugby player (and once I've fully recovered from surgery I had last month I hope to get back into the game)

You mean the Electronic Music from 'Kraftwerk'?  ??? If so, you may like 'Klaus Schulze' or 'Chris Huelsbeck' too  :)

For Chris Huelsbeck's Music Examples, please, visit http://www.garageband.com/artist/huelsbeck or http://www.huelsbeck.com/

Greetings,
Ingo

Hey.

I've been drawing sprites since ACS on the Commodore 64.

I'm mostly a Photoshop/Tablet artist now, but I thought I'd get back into pixel work as I've always loved 2D gaming.
