Title of my webpage (first post and pixel art)

on: February 13, 2007, 06:40:44 pm
Hello all! I have been watching your amazing artworks for a long time and decided to make one on my own.


This is the main picture (or title) of my webpage called "Vila Supernova" I've been working on. The webpage is about game programming, electronics and stuff like that.

I used GraphicsGale Free Edition to make it and used some tools like "Line Tool" but I still think its classified as pixel art, isn't it?
Anyways, I would like to know you opinions, what you would change and so on. My intention was to make it look like an old videogame title or menu screen. I TRIED to anti-alias it on the building edges but...  :huh: ... the result isn't really good, right?

Good things everyone!

PS: By the way, "Vila" means "Village" in portuguese.

 Looks pretty good. The birds' shape could do some changing. Don't know about the black buildings. That's all I got.

Thank you for the answers!

@fil_razorback: yes, it was intentional. I don't know if it will be the final version, kinda looks strange one day after I've done it  :crazy:

@Andy Tram: thank you. The birds were done the simplest way I could imagine, just to add something to that area. What would be a good way to change it? Doing a real bird form or just anti-alising it?

Good things everyone!
