Pokemo's sprite house

[pokepokemo]

Hi!!This is my sprite gallery!This is the second one I have posted but I guess the first one got deleted because I didn't edit things for too long.
So here's my second one.There are six sprites,three front and 3 back sprites.
Is this already accounted as four sprites?

I have decided to name the new sprite eelectra :)

Some new Trainer sprites of a possibly gym leader and rival(if i ever insert them to a ROM)

Vileplume remake,fusion of guess who and a chingling evo.

Pretty okay sprites. Okay cc. I can you're trying to dither... but not really the right way or place.. also shadow ussualy doesn't travel in diagonal lines, rather their rounded. Make the BG transparent in Photoshop, Gimp or something similar, that will get rid of the white.

Thanks,I've been hating those white places for ages I can't count.and you mean their shadows and highlights should go like a cresent moon insead?
But how do I make the white places transparent?
Oh,and can anyone give me a turorial for making the banner thing where you click it and you get redirected automatically to a site (or,in this case this link)

I'll show you what i mean. I took the liberty to create my own version of the blob pokemon, to compare it to yours.

Mines the one the right. As you can see the lines are smooth. One of the important rules in spriting is never make a right or left bend if you're intending to make a curving line (ask if you don't know what i'm talking about.) My shadow is rounded all the way down which gives it a slight 3d look. Also i didn't even Anti-Alias once is my sprite. what happens when you do it on a small area like the hand is that it makes it look square.

just go on paint and for color put it as the forums color and use the paint can icon to put the color in the white space.

and this is what happens.

Sorry if i'm hijacking the thread by replying, but that doesnt work because people use different styles. Here it is Transparent.

I now get the circle shading part.yours has a much better 3-d feel while mine looks like a triangle with some curves :(
and the hands do look like squares so i'll try to fix that on later sprites :)
the curving lines you mean for the blobs donward clearly curving lines?

By curving line i mean the curving line from the top to the bottom-side which gives it the onion/blob kind-of look.

Remember you guys that you need four sprites to showcase to have a pixel art thread, therefore I suggest you to get up another sprite as soon as possible before the thread is closed.
