Forums » Suggestions & Development Discussion » Sprite Beautification ( and new stuff )

A suggestion thread from me.

The larger CG images of the items/gifts/etc. are nice, and while several of the sprites ( the ones displayed in the shelves/cases on one's profile ) are beautiful, some are a bit...? I don't know how to explain without sounding unintentionally rude. To put it simply, the art style and quality varies greatly.

I guess some examples are in order. I'll list some tidy, clean looking sprites, then some less tidy and clean sprites below that do not match in style and quality.



Basically my suggestion is to redo/tidy up some of the old sprites, retired or not, and update any presently active sprites if applicable.

Heck, I'd be willing to help/contribute. I like to do pixel art and semipixel art a lot. :')

The second bit is some new stuff to collect, that, like the present selection, is available seasonally depending on the time of year/month/holiday/whatnot. Flowers, plants, maybe little critters, pretty things ( imagine monthly birthstone collectibles ). I'd be happy to contribute art to that as well.

I would post samples of my artwork here to show my ability/what I'd be offering but this is just a suggestion thread to begin with.

Unfortunately, redoing old sprites, especially those that will not be offered again, is not something I want to invest time into at this juncture. The only ones with a potential of getting some new lovin' in the near future are walrus related.

As for this part:

This has already been happening, and is happening more and more frequently as time goes on. There's a number of new ones planned already for this year, and one on sale right now (purple roses)
