Title: pixelart in photoshop?
Post by: stuh505 on Sun 21/11/2004 15:42:21
one of those things I've just never figured out how to do is to color single pixels in photoshop.  even when the brush size is set to 1 pixel, it's actually coloring about 3 pixels.  I can adjust the dithering(? i think thats what its called) down until its only affecting 1 pixel, but then it's only got like 1% opacity.  so...is this a capability of paint that is unmatched by photoshop?

You can right-click on brush, and choose the 'pencil' tool.  It does 1 pixel coloring.

Also, if you press the brush tool (in the tool bar) and hold the button down you can select the pencil tool as well.Ã,  Then you might have to adjust brush size.

If you're using the latest version of photoshop your tools options will be on the top bar and you can edit them there.

All my pixel art has been done in photoshop.

This is where we talk about background art...it's not an AGS program question and its not off topic either, where would you put it?

Its easy really, get the right resolution, zoom in all the way and do it pixel by pixel, or just use AGI's picedit.Ã,  8)
