Perseverance. It's what makes us great at what we do. Through this is how we become great at whatever it is we're doing. This can be either something for people who are new to graphics and show them that not everyone starts off as great as they are now, or even as a reflection on how much you've improved in graphics.

What was your first gfx piece?

Mine was this.
Spoiler:


It's terrible, especially considering the standard I'm at today. I know how much I've improved in terms of colour, choosing flow and everything.

That piece of $#!+. Ultimately the first thing I've ever made on a graphics program. I shudder looking at how awful I used to be.

I don't have mine anymore since I deleted it, and I have nothing else to show, considering I gave up after that... Yes, it was that bad.

It was basically a bright blue background with animated nyan cats covering it.

SCARY STUFF.

Who's ready for literally the worst example of a first tag ever?
Spoiler:

... mines worse...
prepare for scaryness!


Spoiler:



this was one of my first ever gfx tag, this was mainly done by features on Paint Shop Pro, and a few of my mixed sprites I created.

I actually remember my first banner, and it was made on Paint! xDD

My old Imageshack account doesn't have the banner anymore, so I had to get the next banner that was pretty close to my first banner.
Or this one
The paint days were so awesome.

My first banner on Gimp was a Shuppet banner, but that also isn't on my imageshack. Bummer. =[ SO, THE NEXT BANNER WAS A GROVYLE (aw yeah.)


Wow. XDD

You totally can't top this . . . thing. It's not my first - I remember a BRS one before that - but it's the oldest thing in my photobucket, and definitely one of my earliest.

Spoiler:


Then there were two versions of this . . . idk what it is. Not really a banner.

Spoiler:




I have more crappy old ones, but I'll spare you the looking at them. >_< Admittedly, I'm not that good even now, but I have definitely improved. :x

EDIT: Found the BRS one! D8

Well, after another dig through my archives, I found my first attempt at a tag.



Pretty... bad as far as colours and composition goes, but I guess overall it wasn't terrible for a beginner. But yeah, it hurts my eyes to this day. Glad I kept working on graphics, but it's true, I never did get that much better at tags haha.
