i've never seen vans work, but by what i have just seen... a child could do just as good, and let me see anyone else show step by step from nothing and make better sprites then i have here, new and old. vans totally erased all minor detial and changed critical size, you have to think about the future and the way items will lay out on your sprite its not just looks, but at the same time, it is.
and anyone can take a previously existing sprite, outline it and do touch ups, i created these all by myself with no template, no existing sprites to go off, just a blank page in paint, so say what you will. And vans was asking for the way I acted, you don't just take hold of someones project and try and turn it around, for the worst. and its not ungreatful to not except help, don't give help and dont mess with other peoples work unless asked, or you offer first. That was offencive to me what he did, i mean, when trying to make something better, at least make it, better! if I was showing off vans edited sprite as my own, what would you all be saying? I would be moving backward, not forward in the progress.
Owns your face.
