PostSubject: Why We Are Here   Sun Aug 24, 2008 11:43 pm

Hello Ladies and Gentleman
Several months from now, we will launch a PixelCon, a gathering of the pixel art enthusiasts from all corners of the internet.
So, we are here, months early, to develop the PixelCon in a way that will satisfy everyone.

So far, the pixel art disciplines we are looking into are Microheroes, Spriting, Dolls, and Isometric Pixel Art.

If any one here has any suggestions for other pixel disciplines, please post them here, and more importantly, if anyone here knows any active forums relating to these art forms, post the URLs here

thanks

Chibi ? zwinky ?and what they call the template at the power ranger board ??

http://www.rangerboard.com/showthread.php?t=44731&page=801

Since they got 800 pages of pixel art .... Wink

should we include the dollz generator ? ( same for the zwinky http://home.zwinky.com/zwinkyhome/main.jhtml)

for all the board i come across with micro in it it will take a while to post all the link i have so i will edit it many time.

Chibis are good, zwinkies are not really pixel art, theyre flash based, and i dont know about the power ranger stuff, what do you guys think?

and thats a lot of links....we gotta figure out a limit, like three/four forums per art style maybe?

also welcome to the PixelCon Joe,its good to have your support

I'm not certain on the Ranger thing either... I mean, some of them may make pixel art, but it's not a board for pixel art... They only have one thread for it... I'm not sure...

like i said 1 thread but 800 pages. and they made some fantastic work it worht the time to look at all the page believe i have.

True it not a pixel board ( in fact a lot of the link i gave are not ) but i dont know i like what they do ... it something between a dollz and a micro with a little bit of chibi.

but i will go with the majority cause like you said we cant invite everybody we will lose ourself.


Did the Bobster from the lilguyz and the admin of superbuddies were invite ?

we want to invite bobster and lilguyz, but he really doesnt like some of us (or more accurately, our forums), so we gotta figure out how to approach him with this. i dont know about superbuddies, theyre not really a microboard, though they have a couple of microers on it...what do you all think

Well, superbuddies has a whole section set aside for micros. But a lot of those people post on other boards so I don't know.

you know sometime it best when you put some pressure ... invite bobster in front of all the lilguz group. Telling him it would be a honor to have the creator of micro universe What a Face

for supperbuddies ... well they dont have only micro they got other pixel art too.

and before someone think him a pain in the ass im just tossing idea dont worry like i said before i will go with the majority Wink
