Hires

Some time ago I started dabbling in standard Hires mode and i find it quite enjoyable. Also people seem to like the stuff i put up on CSDB in hires mode.

This makes me wonder why not more graphicians try to use it. Imo it is pretty easy to get a hang of and quite enjoyable.

Opinions?

" the conceptual side of things can be taken an extremely long way yet."

Why would you need c64 for that? Other media give you more opportunities to develop conceptualy.

So in a nutshell, weuld everyone agree that creativity should be rewarded, both in concept/subject/composition and also in technique?

Very true. Been asked this before - and i have no valid answer for it.
But for Ptoing and Helm, it's different - they came to the c64 for projecting their vision on the machine (mind you, not the scene ;), because of the restrictions.

Yes. My interest is pixel art. I am not so much interested in the scene as I am in the machine it revolves around itself. I come from a different pixelling background, originally Amiga/PC, and I return to this older machine, with which I had very limited experience when it was first around (check my age) because it is potent aesthetically.

Different media for different concepts. There are things the c64 can do that no other computer can. If you'd rather I left it alone and went on my convulted conceptual path elsewhere, not rocking the scene boat as it were, I'm sorry, I still have things to do with my widepixels and hires :)

edit: Sorry for double posting - it was accident.

So what are those things C64 can do and PC cannot? Maybe i'm dumb, but i cant think of any. I run vice every other day, and my PC is doing everything c64 can.

I'm afraid it'd would be unfair to reply to this by posting images by past and recent legends and then play the 'I agree/dissagre' game with you. Work that answer our for yourself if you believe my opinion might potentially have merit.
