Thanks for moving this.

A very good idea.

 

 

 

My contributions:

 

 

 

.JPEG a file type which compresses the image, sometimes degrading quality. Not to be used for pixel signatures.

 

 

 

 

 

.PNG a file type which is best for pixel signatures, as it doesn't lose quality. Not good for graphical images, as it has a high file size.

 

 

 

 

 

Tag synonym for 'signature'.

 

 

 

 

 

Tablet hardware which uses a pen to draw directly onto the computer, like a piece of paper. Achieves better results than a mouse.

Thanks for that, please post them in a code next time though! :wink:

Oh this is a great idea. =D>

 

 

 

I will submit some words when I think of them.

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

[b]Anti-Alias[/b]Anti-Aliasing (often abbreviated to AA) is making lines that are made of pixels look smoother. Sometimes this is done automatically by a graphics program. Some pixel artists do this by hand, by placing pixels of a color that lies in between the color of the (out)line and the background next to the (out)line.

I hope this is ok. :uhh:

Sorry :oops:

 

 

 

[b]Photoshop[/b] Adobe Photoshop, the industry leading graphics design program. It costs alot, but can produce almost any image. Works in a bitmap, as opposed to vector.



[b]Vector[/b] Uses mathematic principles to create curves and lines which can be coloured etc. Is infinitely scalable, you can zoom in 6000% with no quality loss. Bitmap programs would just show the pixels it consists of.

Thanks Jopie.

An addition to abstract:

[b]Rule of Thirds[/b] If you divide a picture into thirds horizontally and vertically, the intersections of the lines will be a good place for a point of interest.

I had all ready added avatar,, It's stuck to the bottom of the buddy definition... -.-
