Well, the ongoing trend of pixel art here at kirupaforum has inspired me to get into it. I tried once before for like 5 minutes, hated it, so I never tried again. I then found out how much patience it took, and figured that is why I couldn’t do it before. I got up the nerve and tried it again.
What I was shooting for is to do something for a link that mdipi had posted up in another thread. That link was to http://www.mrwong.de/myhouse/index.htm where I viewer can draw up and submit their own pixel apartment. This sounded incredibly fun to me and gave me more inspiration to start in this trend.
Well, this thread is going to follow my progression throughout my experience. The result shown below is the result of quite some times work last night and this morning.

PS: You can submit suggestions if you would like, but this isn’t like my splash page where I will change things on viewer suggestions
Oh yeah, and this is my first attempt at Pixel Art… well besides the one that lasted like 5 minutes before I gave up.
Awesome! I like the plants! And the glass effect is totally perfect!
btw! Why is the “S” in the text “lostinbeta.com” like that?
Actually for some guy who sees it for the 1st time that doesn’t look like an S! well… whatever COOL!
The “S” is like that because I couldn’t draw a decent looking “S”…lol. The amount of pixels I chose for each letter didn’t work to well with the “S”, and I wasn’t about to redo the whole thing because of one letter, so I just jazzed it up a bit…lol. That whole word is drawn, none of it is a font, and I had an incredibly hard time doing that part.

**ancient, old, moldy, rotting and decaying. **
HAAHH! ROFL
I got used to changing footer every once in a while… Actually I hate my footer that have been here over 2 weeks or so…
there’s nothing wrong with other’s footers though…
LOL, ok. If that is what you like to do. I like your current footer. I mess with it when I get bored sometimes… I just sit here and rollover the letters to see what cool patterns I can make :)…lol.
hmm… what should my next footer be about? … some kinda masking effect maybe?.. maybe block animation… pixelart?
hey mdipi! It says something about easin n’ stuff in yur footer… I see nothing else but a ball that appears at the position of the cursor if I click on the footer!
Hey mdipi… that cd key thing would be illegal… and you know where kirupaforum stands on illegal things like that. Kirupa already threatened someone else for giving out out a cd key.
And your footer doesn’t have random speed for me, it doesn’te ven ease anymore. I did earlier, but now it just jumps there. So I refresh for a new speed and click and it disappears. Maybe once or twice it actually eased there.
I guess no one else cares about the original topic of this thread
