An update on ‘Pixel art in the C64 demoscene’

Dear fellow sceners,

In response to the comments we received, we’ve made some changes to the document.
Our goal was always to find common ground to maintain the fun and integrity of our hobby.

What this is not:
- It’s not written to limit anyone (only to encourage openness)
- It’s not aimed at specific individuals (it’s a scene wide practice)

Read the document here

We’d really love to hear your thoughts on this update.
Please post them in this thread, be kind and keep it constructive and on-topic please.

That said, IMHO it would be a very good idea to replace all that "we expect..." by "we encourage...", "it would be nice to...", "we prefer..." or something like this.

And it should perhaps even mention that doing those things is perfectly fine, and normal, in the learning process.

The key point to me is "don't pretend to have done something that you didn't". Not how it was done.

@ChatGPZ : make sure you’re reading the v2 doc. There are no “we expect”s. It’s all “we believe” and “we encourage”.

I am looking at the link in the first post - is there another? (eg the bullet points after "It will often be the case that:")
Ok these are compo rules. Fine

The first point is the key. Encouraging transparency is because if someone doesn't volunteer the information, the audience will often just assume they did it all themselves

Do not adorn yourselves outwardly [...] , but adorn yourselves inwardly with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God's sight.

Here's an interesting watch, about the ongoing relation between art and technology and the ethics involved.

Interesting talk. Four different personal motivations and approaches towards pixeling.
