^Awesome, good work, though I would of made the slot machine, have a golden glow coming like the other Rotoms
Anyway, I guess noone likes my sprites. I just wish someone could say whether they like them


Meh, Charizard and Sceptile Steel type, I used the horns of a Nidoking on its back, and the top part of its head is from a Flygon

There is no "size" for a banner. merely what you think is fit for whatever you're making. For example, My banners are often different sizes, as shown here.

Its entirely a preference thing. Some people prefer bigger sigs to have more to work with, but others prefer smaller ones so they don't have to focus on so much of a space.

I suggest starting off with something like 400x180, and then adjusting accordingly.

God I love how you sigs just seem to flow so well. I try to get that effect, but never can get it to really blend well with the subject, it just stands out too much.

Here's some examples of my work (newest to oldest I think):

Haven't worked in photoshop for 2 years. I got CS5 and have decided to go back working on it.

I was wondering, in the Kyogre banner, how did you achieve that flow? Is that simply a smudge effect or something else?
 
I recently started spriting, and I think I'm good at it.
I made 4 so far, are they any good?

Porygon revamp. I liked how this turned out, however, some people might not like it so much.

I dunno what I was thinking on this one, I scratched the claws, added groudon legs, and just recolored it. I got inspired by this idea from a character named Poison Jam in the (unpopular and old) game, Jet Set Radio [Future]

My brother drew this Idea in the fourth grade, and I found his drawing and I sprited it.

SandDemon.png
I remember watching spiderman 3, and I just really wanted to sprite this.


Please don't steal and give credit to yourself. Thanks.
 
I've been inspired.

What do you guys think? :-D

Did you really just start?
Becasue your sprites are more awesome than mine, but though I like the Sandman idea, the Eyes seem a bit dodgy, the rest are great though, I like that Gallade thing

Yeah, I really did just start. I got into it when I read the spriting section of the smog, and then I found some video tutorials on youtube, and then I found some other tutorials.

This one helped me the most though:

I would like to request some sprites if anyone is up to it. I want to make a ROM hack that has a few surprise trainers to battle, mainly older generation trainers. I would need an overworld and a front battle sprite of the characters, some maybe a back battle sprite. For now I will ask for only 2.


Trainer Sprites Needed:

Emerald versions of May and Brenden w/ Back Sprites

Please follow these rules:
The sprites need to be 80x80 for the battle and back sprites, and 32x32 for the overworld sprites.
The sprites can have no more than 16 colors maximum including the background color.
The overworld sprites needs to be in a 96x128 frame, and the back sprites needs to be in a 400x80 frame like the examples below.

Front Battle Sprite Example:

Overworld Sprite Example:

Back Battle Sprite Example:
