Yay my first one! One issue though. How'd you guys get transparency so you don't get the silly white box around your fusion? I just eyedropped the board colour...also..mine looks low qual in comparison..anything i am doin wrong?
Edit: It's Venomander btw.
Great job for your first sprite.
Major Issues:

1) ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS save in "PNG" form. JPG distorts images HORRIBLY. ALWAYS save in PNG. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS!!!

Download Paint.Net and use the Magic Wand to highlight/remove the white from the image.

EDIT: America fails. Obama is a babbling ****ing idiot.

I am. i am sad obama was winning but knew he would.
Republicans FTW!

But I almost saw it comming. Between the Obama mania, the chants, and the slogans, it's near impossible to win. Though remember, McCain (and especially Palin) appeal to the midwest and central part of america. Though Obama only needs California and Florda to win, which are both in the bag for him.

EDIT: Amen, MK. Obama isn't going to do much rather then spread the wealth around, which is socialist and bad.

I'd pretty much say what MK said -- it's a great job for your first sprite. The quality loss is because you NEVER, EVER save as a JPEG. As one of those links says, "Do not save them in .jpg format. Even if somebody is holding a gun to your head." For transparency, either download Paint.net like MK said, or you can download the GIMP. Either way, you need a program to do it. You can use something free like one of those, or if you happen to have Photoshop of any version you can use that. In any case, that's how.

But the sprite looks very nice. It's a little hard to give more critique because it's harder to make out, but from what I see it looks great.

Yeah...I mean, it's even one thing if you just disagree, but there are too many misinformed morons that are voting for the man because he says he'll change the country. I know someone who voted for Hillary in the primaries because their sister was, and their sister was voting for her because she was a woman. It's times like that you wonder why there isn't a test to vote (probably because it's "racist" if we were to have one).

*Cries*
Great. The country can now prepare for devastation.

The sprite is only bad because I hate Obama.
This thing should stab Obama in his eye sockets than stick his genitals in a toaster, set it on high, and then explode his face into an oblivion.

He won. Someone needs to shoot him, right now. Save the country, already.
I love your sprite!

This is why nobody loves you. Not even your parents.
I don't give a ****. He's an idiot and will devestate this country.
Would you have rather killed one man than the 3,000 or so that died on 9/11.
Thought so.

EDIT: And way to fail bringing it to the actual topic, moron. That wasn't neccesary.

That's going a bit too far, but Obama does have ties with Africa and Asia (and Ireland from what I hear as well).

Obama scares me. Our family makes $250,000 a year, just enough to qualify to dish out the wealth for everyone else. I know we need to be helping out the poor, but if people like this idea of socialisim, capitalisim will die and we will get more of this...

As does mine.
A_man, you realize that your money is going to the crack addicts and the lazy people everywhere that are too lazy to get off their ***** to go get a job? Your hard-earned money, which was rightfully earned by both of your parents who got good grades in school and went to college, is now going to a bunch of horrifyingly lazy people that make a mockery of the United States of America.

No, the sprite is truly awesome. It's just hard to see anything good at the moment because of all of the **** that just hit the fan.

Wow. This thread is like the only Republican place on Smashboards.

Freaks.
Yep.

It's good to be a freak.
...I'd put a smilie right there but I'm feeling too crappy for smilies at the moment.

No, he won't. Except for the teens following the Obama fad.
Seriously, I strongly disagree with people who voted for Obama, but there is no one that pisses me off more than the idiots who didn't know what he stood for and either supported him as a fad or just because he claimed he'd change the country. I don't hate normal Obama supporters (especially since I know there are quite a few here), but I do hate the people blindly supporting him.

But yeah, I actually think the sprite's pretty great.

White space between the tail and the body is weird. Other than that, pretty good. Maybe recolor Charmander to be blue.

EXACTLY MY POINT! People are homeless for a reason. They need ways around that habbit, not welfare to get alcohol and drugs.

My mom made calls this week for McCain (I'm not so politicly savvy for nothing) and she was part of this Pro-Women's rights ralley and I think this is the video from it. It's really explained better in my last blog.

$250,000 won't be "just enough" for long. He's going to lower it. And that comic is hilarious.

But as much as I know it's tough because the election just took place, it's a huge thing, etc. I think we really need to move this to the group thread.

And by acting like an immature prick you have proven that idiots like you voted Obama into office.
:urg:
It's people like you who make me say...
You know what? You know how immature that sounds, right? I'm sorry, but maybe you need to cool down.
You're calling US immature pricks?

Unless you voted for Obama, no.
I'm not joking, this is the STUPIDEST decision America has EVER made in my lifetime.

Well, I think it's been a well-established fact for a while that 99.6% of people are stupid, if not more...

*runs away from flame war*

*Realizes group is invite only and gets angry*
Bah, sorry man. zrky's the owner of the group, PM him and ask him to invite you.

I wonder if there's a way to put more admins or something to a group so more people could be available to invite people...? Probably not.

But seriously guys. This is not only extremely off-topic but it's turning into a flame war...PLEASE stop.

Just realized that. Thank goodness Zrky and I are aquantances, but I still might have to trade him for his sig that he's been waiting forever for.

It is becoming a flame war quick and I'd really hate to have the mods shut you guys down. Move along, people.

Venomander redone so the quality was better.

OK, guys WHY did we start with the political discussion in the first place? NOT wanting an answer, but it seems ironic the one always complaining about spam IMO caused all this.

greenstreet and A_man, nice sprites I like them:)

A_man YOU BETTER GIVE THAT SIG NOW, jk

It's fine, both of you. It's true that it's a rule but we've been pretty crazy altogether tonight, so it's really no big deal. I know how nice it is to get feedback on things when you're starting out, too.

And WOW. Venomander looked great before, but with the distortion gone it looks amazing, especially for your first sprite! The only thing I would point out is that the antennae look a little weird. The rest of it is awesome.

Well, since it is Election Night (or was, I guess), it's understandable that political conversation would come up. We just can't have too much of it, or a flame war.

And I started it. Make coments how I'm "Weavile without the W, the a, and either e."
Weavile...without the W is "eavile", without the a is "evile", without either e is "vil". What's "vil"?

From left to right: Venomander, Squirtander, SlukPuk, Chantacruel, Torkwig, Pilopin and

or

Volzing (smoothed him out to look more like a Voltorb, but left a couple of bumps for fusions sake...not sure which is better though)


Girafidash

Feedback on these and I'll leave you guys alone :) Edit: you don't have to feedback them all, I am just dumping here...
Those are all really good :D.

Amazing for a beginner.

I'm Canadian and I would have vote Obama.
