Title: Sprite Jam (not the soda)
Post by: Julz on Jul 09, 2012, 08:48 AM
In this jam, I encourage you all to make a sprite of your characters. It can be animated or non animated.

However, some of you may not know how to make a GIF, so I'll cover that too!
I use Photoshop to make gifs, and it's very simple.

When saving, for FORMAT you want to make it CompuServe GIF (*.GIF) from the drop down box as your file type.

The next step is IMPORTANT! So BEFORE you move on, click the box to save "Layers as frames".

The next window will pop up and click the "animate" box. In the bottom corner click the preview button and it will show you your gif in action.

 Save and you're done!

I will start us out!

just something simple before work. I might try an animated one at some point. I think I've only ever done a sprite one other time so it was fun.

In order to more effectively publicize my completion of Ancelin's redesign (http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=character%3bid=783), I have made an adorable animated sprite of her:

I'll probably do one of Bill, too! This was so fun to make!

Turning this into a gif messed up the colors! But I spent all day on it so I don't care!

Hoom, wanna try this. Whats the best program to use in order to achieve that genuine spritey look?
Title: Re: Sprite Jam (not the soda)
Post by: The Bent One on Jul 10, 2012, 06:28 PM
MS Paint. but you can use Photoshop zoomed in to actual pixels and draw it in there.

Actually, there's no reason to EVER use MS Paint for anything.

I've been using Photoshop with the pencil tool.
Title: Re: Sprite Jam (not the soda)
Post by: JCee on Jul 10, 2012, 09:27 PM
Totally doing this, though I can't animate for shit XD

Come back later...

EDIT: BACK! Sorry that it's not as small or as pixeled like a sprite should be. But I still had a ball with the pencil tool. Might make a better version next time.

ahhhh this is my first go, I haven't messed with the animation in Photoshop for an age so she doesn't do much.
omg Kinu and Angie, yours are ADORABLE.

I need to do some updated sprites, but here's some old Pokémon sprites I made for Ancelin a while back:
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/b789dkufh60u15f/ancelinTeam.gif?raw=1)

and as a bonus, apparently I decided not to animate an entire Pokémon battle and instead had Ancelin take care of everything herself:
