I can’t wait to see it. I didn’t even know this apartment thing would take me more than 2 days…sheesh. Well technically it has been 1 full day. I started it last night around this time. But I am still not done. ---

Looks good. Still not pixel art though :evil: ---

The thing holding the flowers doesn’t look like pixel art. The grey top and bottom doesn’t either. The stereo kinda does, but kinda doesn’t. But it doesn’t matter I was just joking, it says nowhere in the rules that it had to be pixel art… some of them in there aren’t pixel art, but I just like being annoying like that 😛 ---

Yes, you are anoying, but you are correct, I did use gradients, and I did use a vector’d texture (nothing is raster’d in this version)… this is the first “art” of this type I have tried… Kinda fun… in a masochistic way… I wouldn’t want to do an entire city… Some of those on Mr. Wong’s site are incredible and creative… I’m having a tough time doing the rug I want… Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

Yeah, this is my first shot at this pixel art thing too. I have times where I sooo just want to grab the line tool, or something un-pixely…lol, but I hold myself back and keep clicking away… click,click,click,click,click,click,click. Then I come up with something…lol. It takes me forever to get something to look right because perspective is really hard for me to get right now, I am getting used to it though… slowly. [edit]LOL, thanks Phil… and your welcome about showing you that doohicky on the whatzehoozit thingamagig :beam: [/edit] ---

Great job everybody! Can I ask you a [SIZE=1]stupid[/SIZE] question? How do you draw a line? Do you do it pixel by pixel, or is there something I am missing? [SIZE=1]there has to be something[/SIZE] :-\ ---

Man, I feel so ridiculous… I just wanted to say that I tried the line tool, but the result wasn’t pixellish at all. ☹ :\*( ☹ ---

Try making your pictures in mspaint… Use the line tool there its much more easy! Or at least that’s what I use… 🙂 ---

Yes, pixel by pixel is how I draw my lines. Then I use the paint bucket tool to paint in areas… so that is helpful 🙂 grzkax: Nice room, but it would look so much better with color. I didn’t work on mine at all yet today… I will later though. ---
