| Hello, all SMW hacking sprite drawing fans! I present you... a sprite contest! Mods, please don't move this, especially to Modern Art. Well, that is if you don't want to move it to the Trash Can. People post sprites normally in Modern Art, and it will completely defeat the purpose of this, which is to see the spriting ability of the SMW Hackers with a more organized fashion. If it is moved anywhere, this contest will end because of the lack of reason. These are for SMW-friendly sprites only. Here are the rules. 1. DO NOT RIP. If I see a rip, you'll be disqualified from all other sprite contests and this one. And if you steal someone else's sprite, they'll get the nomination if they do get one. Just please don't try. Only draw the stuff by yourself. You can use any graphics tools, I don't mind that. Except for those little stampy things where they print a random sprite. They mostly suck anyway. 2. Your size limit is a 4-KB SNES 4BPP .bin file, and you can use and hack as many palettes as you want. There are only the SNES colors and the file size to limit your creativity. 4BPP means 16 colors. That's 4096 bytes of binary... 3. No entering garbage sprites. This is a serious sprite contest, and save your "BEST SPRITE EVAR" for April Fools' Day, or even better, keep them to yourself. Then we don't have to waste time looking at old jokes. 4. No actual .bin files. Just take a screenshot of your sprite(s) in your tool with the CORRECT PALETTE. Don't scramble your tiles up to the point that you can't even see them right away. .png files are recommended, and .jpg is okay when you have a more detailed thing. 5. Absolutely no dissing each other's works. I'll be the judge, and I might hire others if the job gets to be too big for one person. You can give constructive criticism or helpful praise (not "that's good") in the thread. If you want the person's sprite, contact him/her privately and it's none of my business unless it's my sprite. I hope that was clear. So, you can enter sprites separately or enter them in different categories if you feel they can win in both (or more!) Your sprites will be judged, as explained before, by me and maybe others. You may want to note the category you're going for, so the judges can actually decipher it easlier, and names for the sprites could make judges like it more... So far in this contest version 1.0 there will be these categories: (suggestions are more than welcome) Cutest Sprite Coolest Sprite Most Realistic Sprite Most Mario-esque sprite Most Unique Sprite Best Nostalgic/Retro Feel (REMEMBER, NO RIPPING!) Overall has three winners: Best Overall Sprite - Gold Award Second Best Overall Sprite - Silver Award Third Best Overall Sprite - Bronze Award I will post the results after everyone got their chance to share the sprites.

| When do you think will be the deadline for this. (I know it's not an exact date, but around what time do you think it will be coming to a close) I just want to know, because if I have a lot of time, I think I'll upgrade my Giant Goomba (which is already in my hack in Level 001) |

| Your giant goomba is awesome, Atma. Entering will be closed when I feel that this contest will really be pretty big. And that might take a while... Maybe at least 1 or 2 months. (edited by Geno on 03-22-04 09:43 PM) |

| Sounds like something that can occupy my time. I require a clarification, however. I'm not sure if you covered this already or not, so give me a break. Should the sprite be useable in a SMW hack, or not? If not, well, it's nice to have a little competition to liven things up, but it doesn't really belong in this forum. |

| This is my last sprite I made for my hack DwOry: "The best levels" level 103, retro level like Mario 4 (gameboy). But the sprite I made is using SNES colors and is diferent from the sprite from Mario 4   In the top is the 4BPP (16 colors) and the 2nd is how looks in the game... For Best Nostalgic/Retro Feel  |

| One question before I begin: Can I enter more than one "group" of sprites? (A group being something like orynider's frog pics) |

| LK: Go ahead, enter all you want! JJ: Try to make it SMW-sprite-Map16-friendly. It gets bonus points, a LOT of them. But really, try to make them at least fit one of the giant or big sprites (Mega Mole, Big Boo, Gas Bubble, Banzai Bill). You can alter their Map16 (Ctrl+Shift+PgDown in 16x16 editor). Atma: The face does look kind of weird. Is it just a rounded explosion of the SMB1 one? That's what I did for a giant star... Orynider: I love that interpretation! Does it replace Yoshi? |

| The got the idea for the Goomba's gfx from another Mario toy that I have, but I did also use the SMB1 Goomba as a guideline (just to look at). | |||

Here's my 1st entry (and NO, I didn't rip it! I drew it from scratch!): A custom fire flower. Ignore the dots around it. I dunno how they got there. Any comments? PM them to me! (edited by Lemon Kirby on 03-24-04 11:54 AM) |

| Geno: < I love that interpretation! Does it replace Yoshi? The frog sprite most do what Yoshi does and most be an enemy! I asked FuSoYa to make an precial asm hack in SMW for it but I do not know if FuSoYa has time for it now  If I or someone will make the asm hack the frog will be able to eat Mario   (edited by orynider on 03-25-04 08:25 AM) |

| Then why post in this topic? Seriously, if you arent going to at least TRY, or contribute to the conversation, then dont say anything. Otherwise that will result in pointless spam. On the other hand, why dont you just heavily edit a sprite.  |

 If that is not detailed enough, I also expanded it to 4 times it's normal size.  I created these for my Super Mario World hack, "Mario Legacy: SMW". Two of them were omitted. One was the boo block when in full block form, the other was the moving boo sprite which was a direct rip from Yoshi's Island. What you see are sprites inspired by the Yoshi's Island boo. Far left - Boo block. left - boo sticking tongue out. right - chuckling boo. far right - standard boo. (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 03-31-04 06:22 PM) |

Originally posted by orynider Of course! You may enter as much as you can, but remember, we want quality, not quantity.  And those bood look very YI-ish, you may want to fix the shading on the boo (make it with more spread colors) and on the half-boo block thing (looks uncomfortable). :-/ |
