• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    The reason why everyone brings up the palette swaps is because they serve as very good examples of poor color schemes; sine that's quite literally the only thing you've edited on them; it stands out moreso than on your others. Basically, you can apply the advice you've been given on them to...

    ...I'm curious, what were you expecting us to say when you made that comment? That's a fairly inflammatory statement.

    So, what you're implying is that people with Asperger's will inevitably lack any artistic talent?

    It's not the fact that the colors are taken from the official sprites, it's that the colors don't look good together.

    Waaay too many shades there. Seriously, man, how many do you need? You could get rid of half of them and I wouldn't tell the difference... which leads to the second problem: no contrast. If you're going to have all these shades, at least make them look different.

    Is that a Dragonair scratch sprite, or what?

    The colors look good on the originals because the colors work together in certain portions; having blue and yellow with some bright orange cheeks looks better than blue and bright orange with yellow cheeks, for example. In addition, some body parts here have no business being the color they...

    Here's the problem; you have color combinations like grayish blue on bright orange, bright yellow on purple, tan on pink, and on this Wartortle, dark green, yellow, and baby blue. The colors don't work with each other. Or maybe Negrek's giving you a second chance for some bizarre reason? Until...

    The colors on your recolors are atrocious. No, seriously; why the hell do you have all these neon bright colors on them? If you're going to have radically different colors, dull them a bit. Alternatively, you could go back to making loads of those "Darke" Pokemon you seem to love making so...

    Re: My somewhat-okay (I hope) Pixel Overs and Revamps You mean revamp, correct?

    Re: My somewhat-okay (I hope) Pixel Overs and Revamps Haha, sophisticated Cleffa is sophisticated. ...you're still using too many shades with too little contrast. Also, you need some black outlines to add depth.

    Re: My somewhat-okay (I hope) Pixel Overs and Revamps So, I'm assuming it's the cast of some anime/manga? I don't watch/read much anime/manga (which reminds me, I need to get to watching Death Note on Hulu), so I have no idea what the hell you're doing. The Zorua sprite is pillowshaded like...
