Hi ozziemum

The background is extremely big (1880 x 2354), and the character is tiny tiny (103 x 306) compared to it, are these how they will be in the game? It's always good and faster to pick an easier solution like 320x240, 320x200, 640x480 or 640x400. You don't need bigger than that. Plus animating a sprite of that size would be incredibly hard.

(I assume these are for an ags adventure game)

Oh crap, I didnt think of that.... Whats the best way to change it to the "right size" I cant just resize it (im using paintshop pro for the bg and mspaint for the sprite) because it ruins the detail of the bg, should I start again from scratch?
You shouldve seen some of my earlier edits (been editing off and on for more than 2 years ) I tried a floodfill of a tile photograph eek it was terrible
What size should the sprite be? I'm really happy with how it came out my first attempt was really pixelated

Y'know generally the exercise goes 'write an angry letter to someone who's upset you, but don't post it...'

Yes Yes Yes! And then burn it! Letting all the bad energy flow into the flames
or is that just a girl thing to do?
Just stay away from the curtains or there could be trouble

Edit: That and chocolate

Would it be to cliche if I mentioned that grand number, overshadowed by all the other great quotes and anecdotes ( i dont really know what that means but it sounded good)

42

Sad thing is I was really excited when i got my mobile phone number and it ended with 42!

Hello,
I'm a 23 yo  Aussie/Kiwi Mum of 2 (not the place I know) and I've finally gotten a background up to some simple enough standard, but it still needs some tweaking
I'm not so confident about shading on the sprite or the background any tips?
I also seem to have no colour co-ordination what-so-ever any ideas on the colouring for the bg? (I shrank it a bit so it would fit) full size image here http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/goodhallway2.png
Its a hallway (like duh...) of a zoo, there is a Utility Closet to the left and Break Room to the right and far back right there is a Security Office, the big brown doors lead out into the behind the scenes part of the zoo and the bottom leads to an indoor enclosure...
Hows about helping a girl out?




Did I do that right (no breaking of the rules?)
