| It has such a level and depth of visual competence that I fail to produce but succeed to comprehend. As for the effect on the viewer, it is a metal song written in pixels instead of notes. And it's great for one, it must be among my most favourite pixel art pieces I've ever seen. Respecto! |

Simply wonderful. Perfect combination of technical brilliance and motive.
Who were the "downvoters" only giving a 9 or 8? ;-)) |

On the 3rd of March, I asked Firehawk about a show-routine for a whole-border image,
along with a small mock-up (similar in content, different in character). Ideas on
how sprites could be used more efficient for the quality of the result was refused
for a completely free area (for future use of the actual code) I asked about rasters
in the side-border and was leaned it would affect the $d021 in the bitmap.
Which I found useful.
Two weeks into the process, the picture had to change from 8 sprites to 7 sprites in
the upper and lower borders, with a complete rework of the image. Bad lines would repeat
colors in the rastered background so everything was somewhat changed.
The work is completely made up on a sketch on paper (5 days), later translated to 8-bit
graphics, all the work for the image was held in a layered Photoshop document, where I
could change graphics independently of the position. Also to test colors.
The main pixel work was done in PixCen (20 days). Everything else is code, which was
started early in the process, on and off each greater update (The work of the image
was done regardless.) until a set deadline for the 27:th of March. |

| wondering, which tools did you use? did you draw some, code the viewer, then draw some more or did you start out, planning exactly how much of the border you would open and then filled in the pixels or? and which programs if I may ask? |

Thank you for all the votes and comments!
Prowler: I agree that it tends to be rather flat and even in level.
I choose to work with black for the border sprites and heavy outlines
with little dither. Could have made it different all together,
but the content and experiment surpassed the image and so did 25 days.
Hedning: Thanks for participating your great party.
For those who wonder what I got, it was a t-shirt with Mermaids
dinosaur from the recent image Walking on the Moon. |

| Superb work Joe - congratulations on the win! One thing I reflected upon when I first saw it was that the image lacked some "depth". This might be intentional and gives that extra arty/illustrational feel to it. A full 10 of course! |

James does what everybody does: 1 key at the time, it makes a pixel, note, or writes letters... but when he does it, it comes out this way, the "we gonna have skeleton sex!" way :) |
