An idea I had for an avatar for myself and anyone who would like to use it....I took a photo of my hand to use as a reference

great detail in the hand

I thought the hand was a real picture, then zoomed in. It's crazy!

Holy crap! The hand looks amazing! Looks almost real!

That's a very good pic! Feels like a title screen for a quiz show

that's really nice. Great sense of depth too, good job! One thing though, it looks like the fingers are just floating near the border of the pixel. If you hold something you'll see how your fingers press into it - i think a little bit of that 'pressing' will help it look like you're really holding it.

ah yep... thanks heaps

Sometimes when so many colors are used its very hard to determine how 'one pixel at a time' it actually is. It usually indicates that too many colors have been used. Now at 12 colors it looks just as it did but its better in quality.
Just to clarify something said below. Reducing colors is a good thing, color reduction is never to be done, ever.

hehe, clever, but you can see the straight lines on the hand. like said before, it could use some AA. still good, 4/5

Thumtac (Level 1 Private) at 6/15/2007 4:40:15 PM

ahhhh ok thx

Christopher (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 6/15/2007 3:02:34 PM

AA is Anti-Aliasing. Smoothing out a picture where you have two diff colors meeting each other. You put a color that is between them to smooth it out. Thats the best i can try to explain it.

to crusader, you could still use less colors, thats known as an important part of pixel art.

Thumtac (Level 1 Private) at 6/15/2007 2:30:49 PM

ok can some one tell me wat AA meens

Thumtac (Level 1 Private) at 6/15/2007 1:02:35 PM

neet idea needs AA 4/5

sausage (Level 5 Sniper) at 6/15/2007 10:23:09 AM

Thats Quite nice, but people are right, it does need AA and maybe another colour reduction, But, if you AA it would look silly on some backgrounds (If you keep it transparent.)

ZeroFive1 (Level 5 Rokkyu) at 6/15/2007 4:14:58 AM

Maybe some AA could be in order?

crusader333 (Level 3 Stalker) at 6/15/2007 1:42:52 AM

ooh I think I know why the count is so high.....I'll try to make it better

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 6/14/2007 7:41:26 PM

Yep, too many colors for what it is. Please post a link to the the photo you took.

Christopher (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 6/14/2007 6:29:35 PM

Like Zool said (I think)
It has way to many colors in the hand. The line that comes down into the hand from the index finger is to dark.

Good idéa, but the shadow needs AA, and it's perhaps a bit much photorealistic for PJ IMO.
