Since now I know how to post my art, I have decided to make some sprites. Here they are:

They're not the best, but I think I did OK. Requests are appreciated.

The golden rule in spriting is to not save as JPEG

Always save as PNG with your sprites'

It also looks like you're zoomed in too close. I suggest zooming out

They look good for what you're trying to make :3

Ehh how do I explain it

You know when you finish your sprites?

And you go to "Save As" it's the type you save it as

They have Bitmap, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, AND PNG

Use PNG to save your sprites cuz JPEG destroys the quality of them

Heh I like the Magichamp! Like Shiny said, zooming out is key, so that it does not looks so pixelated. Other then that, I like your style of spriting!

Yeah, they're okay. You're making a mistake that a few of my friends made when they tried spriting: They enlarged the image instead of zooming in. I assume you're using Paint, so get the sprites you want, put them close together, then click the magnifying glass and zoom in 8x on them. That way they aren't enlarged, so it's both easier to sprite and better to look at. Then, like Crobat said, save as a .PNG. Go on, give something else a shot, zooming this time though!

Much better! I like! It could use with a bit more detail or shading, but otherwise it's pretty good!

Darn. I just finished making another thing and then my mouse decided to stop working. I'm on my mom's Laptop now and you're going to have to wait before I can show you.

I don't know what that's based from, but I think you mistook the guy in the bottom-left corner for me...

The guy on the bottom left corner is ME, nin. These are MY eight personalities.

More Sprites! My own project, I made a colorswap of Zangoose and Seviper. This has probably been done before XP

Small suggestion, when posting sprites you may want to zoom out a bit more so it looks like it was meant to look, and not to pixely. In general, it makes all sprites look more impressive.

I zoom in on purpose, because the sprites' original size is barely seeable. I'll try to zoom in 150% instead of 200% next time.

No, no, you ENLARGED it again. Don't enlarge sprites to edit them! Use the Magnifying Glass tool! Then you don't have to resize or anything and it's much easier!

I don't enlarge sprites to edit them. I enlarge them after they're finished because I think they're way too small as they are.

Mmk... But don't enlarge it to 150%. Some pixels will be bigger than others and it won't look right... Maybe post the 100% and 200%?

The smallest one looks the best, in my opinion.
I think I agree with Kaz and Nin: when you zoom in, your sprites are looking more 'pixely'. It's best if you don't do so.

Heh, I like that! But if you look at it's left hand it seems like it's completely transparent... I take it that's supposed to be white?

And if you look at the second one (150%) you'll see what I mean - It looks horrible compared to the other two.
