It only gets light enough to identify anything once select it, right click and go to properties... Anyways, nice piece!

I agree with the fact that the dithering doesn't really belong in this piece... The hair looks nicer though now you added more detail in it... So I'd remove the dither (also in the hair and replace it for lines/strands) and enjoy the beautiful piece you've made!

Really great choice for the palette I'd only add a BG colour and AA all the edges if I were you...

Another lovely piece. And tomic is right, there seems to be missing AA on the outlines of the rocks, but I only saw it when tomic mentioned it... Nice job!

Very cool style. I haven't seen many pieces with a similar style or theme before, very original!

Looks very nice, like your other work. You really make nice palettes that fit the piece!

I really love your style! Cartoony, yet it has a realistic feel to it

Haha, that movie is pure propaganda, but nicely put together. Nice job on the figures and bg, too. Will there be a russian version too, stating that communism stands for all that's good in the world?

Looks nice. I think there is room to improve on the dithering, and maybe the anatomy (although I have to admit I find anatomy very difficult, too ) - Very nice job though, certainly for only a week time!

Lovely style! I love the bubbly, cloudy style you used for the mushrooms and background!

I really like the style for the colouring you used. Nice and bright colours, circles and blobs everywhere, it reminds me of exocet's pieces a bit.

Looks very nice! Next animation an exploding peach?

I think it's a pity the dunes at the horizon don't move... I know it would add to the number of frames significantly, but it would really make it more realistic. Plus, I would have made the camel move up and down a bit, or some kind of swinging forward and backwards motion in the body of the camel.

But I shouldn't really be too critical, I'm not that much of an animation expert. I found it more difficult than I thought it would be when I made a sprite, so I can only give this the highest rating I can give it

I don't think you over AA'd it, looks nice. I would have added less AA to some lines and more to others, but I really like the simplicity of shapes you used... And did you make those letters yourself? They look really cool

Thanks for the advice... That's quite rubbish, That's why I also hate the Image viewer included in Windows XP, and now Firefox (which is to me a very nice piece of software) takes over the ---- that Windows has left

I do still have Firefox 2.0.0.14, so I'm safe.

Hehe, very fitting background sound you have there It could almost be an album art of Frank Zappa!

Nice pixel too. And of course cool to see the pixel get more and more finished over time.

I think this won't be really easy to make nice-looking... You will have to be able to make things sharp and also make things blurry and up to very blurry by probably over-aa'ing it... I like this challenge
