Opacus (Level 7 Ichikyu) at 12/23/2007 3:33:19 PM
Atleast Naruto and KH do not rule this site.

soda (Level 10 President) at 12/19/2007 6:26:58 PM
I've already started the Retro Remake one.  Only one I'm doing.  

Doomcreator0 (Level 5 Detective) at 12/19/2007 2:47:11 PM

I've got so many things to do. I love so many of the old competitions and outcomes of each.

Doing these so far

Earth Day Tribute

April Fool's Gallery Study: Larwick's bomb series

CMRYGB(or whatever it is( challenge)

Dive in hopefully too.


Skull (Level 11 CEO) at 12/19/2007 2:33:45 PM

skamocore (Level 11 Psychopath) at 12/18/2007 8:22:59 PM
Yup, agreed. a lot of people will do multiple entries and it's 2 weeks long

Number to beat 72 (It's Evolving)

Noveroth (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 12/18/2007 7:16:00 PM
oh man finally a reason to finish the knight for the Good Vs. Evil

Acherhar (Level 5 Assistant Manager) at 12/18/2007 6:32:51 PM

Should be a really interesting mix.


surt (Level 10 Maniac) at 12/18/2007 3:28:43 PM
Will have most entries ever.

skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 12/18/2007 3:17:14 PM
unfinished, never seen entries that were never finished lol

OMGFossil (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 12/18/2007 12:10:27 PM
what           

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 12/18/2007 9:27:21 AM
The good and original always overcome these things.
That which you like is not always well received.
That which you threw together is faved and raved.
Its not a PJ thing, its an art thing.
The best situation is half the peeps will like it, half won't.
Therefore 50% is great
51% amazing.


pixel on.

Metaru (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 12/18/2007 6:47:45 AM
we have to live with that, or kill fool.

Adarias (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 12/18/2007 5:49:09 AM
yeah it's no secret that the bigger the piece and the longer time spent on the newest pixel art que (and then again in the weekly top que) the better it does. 

nothing to really be ticked by though, that's the will of the people.

if i have time to fill a 320x240 canvas, ill probably do that cyberpunk one....


EDIT - looking through my gallery actually, my smaller pieces do just as well.  http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/17445.htm and http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/10369.htm both got over 50 favs and top 10 places.  Still though, the pieces in my gallery that I like don't go anywhere, and the silly little things like those do.  http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/11191.htm is my only piece that I both am proud of and that did well.

OMGFossil (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 12/17/2007 11:13:42 PM
it's here too and pixeljoint birthed from that hole

Opacus (Level 7 Ichikyu) at 12/17/2007 10:28:41 PM

Blueberry_pie (Level 7 General Manager) at 12/17/2007 9:49:57 PM

OMGFossil (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 12/17/2007 3:30:23 PM

theguy (Level 5 Rokkyu) at 12/17/2007 3:25:55 PM

Skull (Level 11 CEO) at 12/17/2007 1:56:54 PM
I still have WIPs from the 1-Bit and Poke'mon Evolution challenges.. but I shant be finishing those.

I have an idea, from one I wanted to take part in but was unable.

tomic (Level 11 CEO) at 12/17/2007 12:11:26 PM
yey, i'm in.. with 5 entries =)

soda (Level 10 President) at 12/17/2007 12:09:52 PM
Wow, amazing idea. Can't wait.

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 12/17/2007 10:28:48 AM
Please don't complicate matters Kobun.

Kobun (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/17/2007 8:13:21 AM

Can 2 or 3 challenges be combined?  Some of them can overlap i think.  Should the artist just list one challenge name that best fits in the entry?

Example: A "Love Machine" made with "Vista Default Colors"


MashPotato (Level 6 Made) at 12/17/2007 7:29:09 AM
Oh, I MUST do this!

Lollige (Level 11 Psychopath) at 12/17/2007 7:14:30 AM
you can allways do more than one if you wish

7even (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 12/17/2007 7:00:05 AM
Does "any challenge" means "more than one"?

Elwin (Level 5 Sniper) at 12/17/2007 5:52:45 AM
Awesome indeed! Hmm yes, I have picked the challenge I want :D

skamocore (Level 11 Psychopath) at 12/17/2007 4:39:04 AM
AWESOME (in capital letters :O)

I was thinking of going back on some old ones anyway :D

question: am I allowed to revamp a piece that was actually submitted for a challenge...or does it strictly have to be one that was never finished?

Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 12/17/2007 2:29:19 AM
Such a brilliant idea! This sort of challenge should happen at the end of every year.

Jiwestone (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 12/17/2007 2:29:05 AM
Heeey! Awesome contest, I`ve got tons of half-finished stuff, time to finish some of `em I suppose:)

Lollige (Level 11 Psychopath) at 12/17/2007 1:14:05 AM
yaay! Just what I wanted :D
