Pixel Art Challenge: Blood-Fire-Rage-Hate

So we can't do a "flaming hot" female who we hate because she's not real?
I think the trouble is, that you tried to provide too many options Sticking to 2 or 3 resolutions allowing for landscape/portait would have worked

I had a hope that this is simple enough, but I see I need to say it again.

"I see I didn't say this clearly enough, so let's clarify this once and for all :

- resolution rule:

For example - we want to draw an image  100x100 pixels, so we do some little math 100x100 = 10 000. So this is 10kpx. Damn, to small!
Second example: we want to draw 100x800 (we are a weirdo!), so we again do some math : 100x800 = 80 000. So it's 80kpx. Damn, again it's too huge!

I hope that's now clarified enough?

- theme rule:

We have four words - blood, fire, rage, hate.

Ok! We take two of them and do some illustration. But it doesn't have to be related with human history! I had to said this not so clear enough (stupid dakael, stupid!). I give you an example:

For example we take "rage" and "blood" - we can draw a berserk, war scene or similar. Or take "fire" and "hate" - you can create a scene of arson, underwater creature which hates fire (but we have to see "hate" on his face and "fire" on the image). Or take all words and create a scene of dragon/demon slaying in depths of hell. Anything that you wish is good, but if it's not so obvious then please add an explanation.

Also remember to not bend the rules too much - smiling girl doesn't stick to the rules at all! Remember - imagination is the key!

I hope that all of you understand everything now, yup?"

~I Am Uh: I am disappointed that very simple rule turned into hard one for some of you. Let me say this again : we need only pictures that have equal or more than 25600 pixels and equal or less than 64000 pixels in them. I think everyone can do this "advanced math" -> width * height .

We're halfway through the time, and there are no submissions. And I understand it, as I don't understand the challenge, and therefore understanding that other non-understanders doesn't join because they don't understand this un-understandable challenge.

When I saw the name for this challenge I thought to myself, sweet this looks like it might be some fun. After reading it all I'm kinda disappointed... I mean it's just so confusing how am I supposed to know whether or not i have 20 something thousand pixels on a certain size image. Maybe I'm just retarded but I don't think this challenge is gonna get to many submissions.

Decimal point marker with a point or comma is exactly the same. Good luck for you all! ;)

@Tomic: I second you absolutely. perhaps you could win this one to give us a good challenge :D

Some countries use a comma as the decimal place marker.  So it means 25.6 kpx.

(I think. )

next week we go pixel-tard proof

what up with the comma? That mean 250 kpx - 256 kpx?

lol, never expected that response, esp' as I was only having a laugh

@dakael: kg as in grams is not computer/binary.

@Larwick: Indeed it does. Scroll to the bottom of this Wiki page.

I've never heard of a kibibyte, but it sounds good! I'm going to use that somewhere...

Anyway, that's my stir for the year, I really should get back into doing pixel art, not done any for a long time

Actually, to be specifically using powers of 2 in units, one has to end the unit with "bi," resulting in kibibytes or kibipixels, abbreviated KiB or for kibibytes or I guess Kipx for kibipixels.

I dont think k as in kilo- ever means 1024 specifically. It just happens that 1024 bytes is rounded down when naming it, right? :P

I'm not even gunna attempt this one. Heheh.

I don't want to double post, please look at challenge thread. I hope i clarified everything.
~pmprog: not always, sometimes it's K, sometimes k. One is 1024, and other is 1000. 1kg doesn't stand for 1024 gramms

~skamocore:  if we will see his raging and hate on his face/his movement that painting Jalonso is absolutely ok!

~stickman: that would be perfect!

Well, if you're following the standard notation for kilo in computers, it's actually 1024, not 1000

Hate and Rage = Jalonso

*damm you smartass

Isn't it 2 of the words that your supposed to pick and combine?

Hate and Blood = Holocaust,
Rage and Blood = Amistad

ecetera?

Sorry guys, dakael wrote the challenge and I failed to clear it up.
Until he expresses himself this is how I understood it from him:
You take one of the four words and then illustrate some historic reference from that.
For example:
Fire = Joan of Arc burning
Fire = Burning of Rome
Hate=The Holocaust
Blood = Anything with/about/relating to Bush
Rage= 'dunno' : /

kudos for res limit in kpixels =) don't get the topic though, might wait for the first guys to post wips in the forum =P

lolnerd.

Ya i like that resolution thing.

Cool, I hope we are going put our resolutions in KP allways from now on!
