It sorta looks like she's about to drop the sword.. not as much a stance to ready for a thrust.. more like she's barely holding the sword with only her thumb and a bit of support from the palm of the hand. It LOOKS sweet though.. sprite-graphics-wise. |

yeah, I know what the right mouse button does (it also performs a selection if you drag it across the image), but it doesn't do what I want it to do. photoimpact (my big, bad, burly image editor, along the same line as photoshop) has a nifty way to pick up colors: hold down the 'C' key to temporarily switch to the color-picker-upper tool, click the color you want, then release the C key to return to whatever tool you were using before.
as it is, the best I can do is bind a key to the 'swap foreground/background colors' function, which is better than nothing, although it's counter-intuitive and can get confusing if you switch colors rapidly. |

hey i use graphics gale 2 its really good. the right mouse selects color, which is very handy. i havnt quite figured out how to make that damn photoshop grid have the squares 1 cubic pixel, otherwise i would use that since u can fine tune to so much more detail and with much better quality with a powerhouse program like photoshop    |

I just don't like the position of the hand that's holding the sword. Other than that, it's fine. |

yes, it was made completely from scratch. I used a program called GraphicsGale to do it. it's along the lines of MS Paint, only better (with the glaring exceptions of not being able to draw with the right mouse button  , that it's a bit buggy (e.g. it crashes if you have two files open and close one while it's maximized within the program window), and is shareware (as opposed to freeware))
yeah, the sword hilt sucks. I got too lazy when doing it. personally, I like her hair the best. |

I'm assuming you made it from scratch. I like everything about that sprite except for the sword hilt. The wings (what would you call them?) above her hand should be more symmetrical. The handle of the hilt doesn't seem to follow the same angle as the blade, which it should.
9/10 - Even with those two minor annoyances. |

You did that from scratch? That's pretty impressive actually. Good detail. |

the size is 200x85 pixels, as with this. |
