The Ten Deadly Sins of Spriting!

11-13-2003, 11:08 PM

Well, maybe you just started making comics, and maybe you can put me under this category too, but if you think you need help making a new comic, or just want some general advice, then check out this Checklist For A Good Sprite Comic .

WARNING!: I borrowed [cough]took[/cough] this from Crash & Bass without asking first, because the guy who owns it never responded to my e-mail. I'm posting it anyway, and hoping that this guy won't yell at me for [hack]stealing[/hack] his list. By the way, all the rules that this guy applies to Bob & George apply to NC as well.

Nah. They weren't too bad. Just not "Grade-A" material. Remember the clause at the bottom of the list?

11-14-2003, 06:22 PM

True. Sure, when I first started to make comix, I broke practically every rule except for the Bob and George stuff. (You SERIOUSLY don't want to see my old comix. They stink so horribly you'd laugh hysterically at how bad they are)

11-14-2003, 10:04 PM

When I first started making comix, I didn't really break any of those rules. Well... except for the jpeg one. Back then, I didn't know how to make my comix into a gif, so I used jpegs. Now I only use jpegs for Fellowship of the 16-bits, because gifs screw up the colors.

^No, you'd laugh at them because they are so bad and hate me for it. (Trust me, I have about a million old Jpgs in there that need to be deleted)

11-15-2003, 12:25 AM

You can still all see my very first comix. Hehe. A work of art.-jay

They forgot #11, which is don't act like somone just called your mother a child molesteing nercophiliac when they gave your comic constructive criticism.
