 * If you contributed or plan to: Sign your name on the About this Wikibook page. You can find a link to it in this book's table of contents.
 * Please post discussion topics on their respective pages in the Wikibook. If you have an idea about the Author page or Box page or what not, post it there!  I have moved some discussions because of this.
 * This page is good for general discussions (possibly about layout, grammar, terms, etc), notices such as this, the outline, and obviously the title page.

Game Use
I think a page about tesellating tiles for use in games would be a good idea. Game tiles can't have the 1 pixel thick shared boundary line these examples do. 74.44.212.233 (talk) 06:29, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

In Depth Pages
If you plan on elaborating on something that is not really required for the topic, but want to make a page for it anyway because it makes the art look nice, etc., title it In Depth:(Title). If we do people, clothing would. Whatever you think isn't absolutly necessicary for this book, but you still believe it should have a spot in it.

You got Nominated!
I put this wikibook on the Collaborations of the Month list! Do your best to clean up what we have and lets make it look good! CherryT 03:10, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Added Title Page Graphic
Feel Free to Remake. I made it in about 10 minutes ^^;.

Remade! Could use some compression, though, if anyone is willing :)

Revised Outline

 * A Brief Introduction to Pixel Art
 * "A great thing to do in school or at the office!"
 * "Keep in mind, pixel'rs, the scale of the pixel art is up to you, but keep things CONSISTENT!"
 * What you'll need
 * MS Paint or a similar paint program with basic zoom functions
 * Photoshop is obligatory, but can be a great help when doing anti-aliasing, shading, and transparency.
 * An imagination and eye for what's right
 * The Basics
 * "For ever two pixels across, one pixel down", the golden rule in pixel art
 * Making a box
 * Geometry
 * Shading
 * Some other basic shapes
 * Cones, rectangles, spheres
 * Combining these shapes to make something
 * Buildings
 * Statues
 * Vehicles
 * Doo-dads
 * Often, the scale of pixel art does not lend itself to allow smaller objects- such as people- to be drawn according to the traditional pixel art persepective (I.E., for every 2 pixels across, 1 down). Because of this, it is up to the artist to choose by which method to draw smaller doodads.  Here are some examples on how you may wish to do it:
 * People, Animals, and other tiny things
 * Pixel Art Gallery
 * Inspiration
 * Games (Sim City, Habbo Hotel, Coke Music, Ultima Online, etc..)
 * Art Gallery
 * Links

I have the feeling this book is going to be more of a picture gallery than anything else! :) All pictures for galleries in this book should be 100x100 or 200x200 so looks nice and is not distorted by thumbnailing. --jellocube27

Bookshelf
This book is currently in no bookshelf. Should it belong to Art bookshelf? --Derbeth talk 09:44, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, could you do that for me? (The tutorial page is REALLY ambiguous and it is really hard to understand). --CherryT 18:11, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Do you need any help?
I am by no means an expert on pixel art but I enjoy making it. Is there anything I can do to help with your wikibook? --Kitty who? 22:07, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

P.S. - I have a couple examples of my pixel art at this site that you can see.

--Sure Kitty. *blows off cobwebs*. I thought this project was going to die. I haven't updated it in over a year (that's what it seems like...). Please do contribute, maybe I'll start working on it again. CherryT 01:03, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
