Those are hilarious!

Hehe, the bike looks a bit like a kid's bike, which makes it even funnier! Murray on a tiny little 4 wheel bike which is much too small for him .

Spoiler

Hmm, odd.
Again? Were you in the chute before?
It could be a bug... But that depends, if you were in the closet, did you get something out of it? If so then there's no need to go again hehe.

Ah, a demon, so that's why he has those things on its head (horns?). I presumed it was some sort of animal, a deer maybe, and so I assocciated it with grass, hope your'e not offended .
What made me think of grass was the fact that there were lines that are commonly found in grass and leaves, umm, if you know what I mean...
Anyway that's why I said the grass looked odd The shape is ok even though it is a little straight.
Anyway I think this whole confusion is from the sketchiness of it. And yes, the nose is there now that I look at it, but the eyes seemed too much like shades to me. I guess they're closed?

Actually, I had no idea demon's had no mouth.. cool..
hehe, anythink that can really freak someone out is interesting , like completely white eyes in vampires (I think?).

Ah..
Hmm, I was thinking it might be a head, but I only saw shades where I'd expect eyes nose and mouth so I thought it was something else. There should perhaps be more defined fire infront of the head, since it looks a bit like grass (I had thought it was someone or something looking through the grass or something), and maybe make it less straight, i.e. curve on the way down, cause if it's supposed to be "taller", I mean go further down, then it should be "fatter" if you get my point, err..

Spmething along these lines in shape...

Umm...

Wo, those shadows are great synthetique! I liked the original outside more though, it was more colorful and cheerful.

Between Jimi's 1 and 2 I like the smoothness of the second but the lines are too thick. They look better gray. The rest of the image isgreat though, I like the lamp and the counter expeccially. Only thing that bothers me is that the lamp seems to be floting in the air not attaced to anything, probably since the top is curved..

Nice! The grass is a bit too thick in parts, and the uh...what is it in fromt of the grass? Some kind of animal? lol, could be the sketchiness but I really can't tell.

Still, it looks interesting...

I dunno about the others but the first one is Plastic Wrap filter.
The new outlines look great Synthetique, much smoother. But outlines are still just outlines, they need something more I think, I just don't know what exactly. Perhaps use Plastic Wrap on the outlined version, since the first effect seems to be favoured.

If you run upstairs the master just doesn't come out. Look around the room, how can you avoid a conversation when the master comes out?

Ok, I did a little thing in a few minutes .
I hope Xadhoom doesn't mind me using his utterly brilliant image. I could find a photo but it's not as realistic as the wolf he drew hehe .



Now that is one book I want to read!

Oh man! I just had another idea, but the person is not from the forum, he's from AGers forum, hehe.

:o :o :o :o :o

Wow! :o Wow! :o Wow!

That is incredible. I now completely idolise you and your art, even more than after the wolf (which is still the best hand drawing I've ever seen, and just amazing!). I wish I could do that!
Could you write a tutorial? Or more like a book...
*gets idea*

I repeat: :o :o :o :o :o

well, what I mean was is it a bit tough to find inside the game, like an easter egg .
I definetly prefer it to be hidden. but don't answer.

About your question:

Spoiler

The charming young woman (!) mentioned in the dialog her interest in counting sheep, maybe the'll distract her. But they're far away..
Btw, have you been to the closet?

I agree the first one (the one with the Plastic Wrap filter hehe) looks nice. Less colors look a bit strange, and more outlining is very nice. The logo is very good!

OR... click-n-drag to the adress bar.

Nice character! The skin is a bit to yellow I think, and it could use some shading.

Cool Font! I'd make it a bit less green though .

I tried something like a frame or something, hope you don't mind:



Logo's are the only arty thing I'm at least mildly good at.
But this didn't come out too well.

There's a lot of white area around the small logo, maybe add a sort of framing to make it look less white, a thick frame but not a simple straight one... Hmm...

The font is ok, you could put it in italics for more interestingness().

It's great!

Please make an art tutorial!

Fantastic! Beatiful lighting. I am so envious!

There isn't much to say that hasn't been said except that it isn't as bad as it seems. Look at what you have and find creative soltions to your problems. Learn something you always wanted to learn to do..

Use the Taoist principle of attracting Positive with negative (lol, sorry I'm just really obsessed with Taoism after reading "The Tao of Pooh"), read books in you spare time...

And I'm here for you.

edit: I dunno if this helps, but in a Taoist's point of view bad is not always bad, as it may turn into something good.

life's all I have right now, and all of a sudden I've got to love it.
sorry if I sounded melodramatic.

If you think about it, life alone is a wonderful thing, think of all the things you did, of the moments when you really lived and enjoyed. Try going ouside and enjoying nature maybe (I reccomend doing so expeccially in the early morning, despite the fact that I myself have no idea how I manage to get up for it, as I always sleep in when I can).

Going on vacation is great, where are you going?
I haven't been on vacation for years .

Well, I have no experience in animation but I think it's more logical to just modify the sprite, cause redrawing takes a long time and also might not turn out precisely the same.

edit:

...

I animate by changing the original pixel art a little bit, and it's easier and smoother than drawing new art for each frame.

Dragon posted but maybe it was a bit hard to notice since it was at the bottom lol.

The older version looks cool too, but the effects you did are better .

You couls have the eye move or something, or fire coming out of the nostrils.
