So, congratulations to Slight. The winner of the first pixel art comp. Here's your prize, (should you choose to display it not, its up to you!...Whoever wins the next one, the avatar gets passed on to!)...

You get to choose the next 'topic' for Pixel Art Game Sprite Comp 2...A few suggestions, (heroes, cars, buildings...)

(Maybe someone can add this as a sticky topic for future reference, so it doesn't get lost in the boards???)

Hey,
I'd first like to congratulate to the winners Good work..

Even though I agree that Slight get's a first place, I don't think he should get a second place aswell. I think it's quite unfair for the other people competing. We could make a little rule that you can post more than one entries, and that people can vote for all of your entries, but that they can only vote for one entry per person (and that will offcourse be what they think is his best). Just to keep things fair. So you'll actualy be voting per person instead of per entry. This will still give people who submit more a bigger chance, because you'll always have more chance that people will like your stuff.

About the entries; it might be a good idea if everyone kept posting his entries in 1 post to keep things neat and well-sorted. This is also so that voters won't have to search the whole thread for ships of that person. Not trying to be *****ing here Just trying to keep the competition as fun as possible

I agree. Either all the votes for one persons ships should be added togeather, or people vote for a persons ships as a group (so entering a bad ship as well as a good one would have lowered your chances). At the moment, sombody could just enter 10 really good ships, and get 1st to 10th place .

Congrats to the winners, and everyone else too

[pointguard]

Yup, great...good ideas.
Everyone keep them in mind for the next comp...

How about then that anyone who enters, gets one post in the thread. Then they can edit their post, with however many entries they want!...Obviously editing can last up until the last day of the comp, before voting starts.

Enjoyed that comp so much, looking forward to entering in the next one...Maybe we should shorten it even more? (10 days of designing, 4 days of voting???)

[tonypa]

Yes, I think people lost interest in it as the time went by.

Grats to winners and thanks for everyone taking part.

Special thanks to pointguard for creating the competition, good job

[slight]

Wowzers!

Thanks and congrats to pointguard and everyone who participated for making a great and fun competition, not to mention the cool, free resource we've made for others to use.

I agree that there should be maybe a different scoring system, and also I wont wear the badge of honor because there is some question as to whether or not my entries were really "pixel art".

For the next comp, to continue the theme (and to pick something I suck at ) my suggestion is "explosions" These could be animated, or not... What do you think?

As pixel art theme? You mean drawing a picture of explosion? I am sorry, but I dont think its good idea. Maybe I just dont understand it.

[thehumanchimp]

Congrats everyone. I may actually try in the next comp...depending on what the subject is.

[alillm]

I will enter the next one too probably, im not great at pixel art though, vector is my strength (vector comp anyone )

Ali

[SaphuA]

Sooooooooooo! Slight! What'll be the next subject? And when will the new competion start/end?

[UnknownGuy]

Great job everyone, and congrats to the winners.

For the whole explosion idea, I would think the explosions would have to be animated, still explosion shots are no fun.

Congrats again all!

[slight]

I just thought since we have a bunch of spaceships already it would be good to expand on that by having a bunch of ships (or other stuff) blowing up. If people dont like the idea, pointguard can pick a more suitable theme.

[EgoAnt]

Wow! Congrats to everyone! I can't beleive my ships both came in the top 15 out of 45. That's awesome. I also did a quick 3D flyby of the Alka Gavel... Not really a pixel art sort of thing to do, but I couldn't resist.
