a plea from an old schooler
please dont use modified PAL emulating screenshots for pictures on this site.
people may want to use this site to download unmodified c64 art in gif or png format with pure pixel definition.
if they want to see the stuff in highly debatable pal emulation mode people can download the PRG files and view them in that mode on an emulator.
Thanks

Quote: okay, but from now on, only view my demos with the pepto palette, will you ? As you say I have the right to force this on you, because I am the ARTIST. Dont disrespect how I saw it when I created it. From now on I have the control on how you watch my stuff.
I already do :P WITH.. ZOMG!!! PAL emulation!!?!!
As nobody uploads demos and tells us what palette to use, or makes screenshots of each frame of their demo or an AVI with the settings how they want them I defer to the standards which I've seen are pepto and pal emulation. As it's possible for an artist to show a still image and say "this is as close as I can get to how I saw it" that should be allowed. I'd personally be much happier watching an avi of a demo captured from the source machine.
It's different, I think you know it and I get the feeling you're being pedantic.

I was just exaggerating. My opinion is noone should force anyone to use this or that palette. If XY like palette Z let him use it. It doesnt bother me, but it bothers the hell outta me some1 telling me how should I view stuff. |

And as you've said, download the koa/prg/d64 but there is no problem with allowing people to say, here's how I think it should look when it's THEIR art, only excuses to not do so. If there's a screenshot/preview, why not let the artist decide?
As for forcing people to use palettes, we've been told all the way through this thread it has to be pepto and been given "reasons" why. Other artists have said they upload their screenshots with pal emulation, I've got zero problem with that either, it's how THEY intended it.

you can decide as you like, right now.
just if the creators of this website decide to change the standards they intend to use on the website they make, then it might eventually change. live with it. if you want to see a website that shows your pictures exactly as you want to show them, once and forever - i am afraid you have to create your own website. |

No "win" in it, I told you it's some of you guys seeing it as a competition to win, if you don't want people bringing up what you say in a discussion, don't say it.
