Yeah, I found that out the hard way.... But i've only been experimenting with photoshop for 2 weeks. and I didn't have a good tutorial, so I had to figure out a lot myself. But once you get the whole layer thing, it makes things easier. Ecspecially if you like to use the "Magic Eraser" which basically erases everything of a certain color, so if you have that annoying black background with your sprites, you can get rid of it without the tedium of erasing like it's open heart surgery. Only thing i need now is a good sized word bubble format, since my mouse isn't all that efficient.
I concur on this point. It's just that your only forum participation prior to this thread was a small post in the Introductory Thread, almost as if you were fulfilling some bare minimum to start posting. It looked like fairly bad form to me. But since you say that was not the case, forget I ever brought it up.
Spyro not caring does not give mjc free reign to berate him. Using a JPG isn't a crime against humanity.
I'm likin' the logo. Though I'm confused as to which direction Mario and Luigi ran. They're not seen behind the characters, so it would seem that they ran TOWARDS the bad guy.
Seriously, dude, evenly space your text in your dialogue bubbles. It looks half assed if you don't. Don't bother asking for pointers if you won't even fix something that takes an extra thirty seconds.
Well we already know that's no excuse, since I linked you The GIMP, which has the same layer feature as Photoshop, and you seem to have made a conscious decision not to use it. No one's advice is going to be any good to you if you don't heed it.
No use helping those who won't listen. Eh anyways, commenting..yeah.
It's not great, but then again, it's not bad, So I can't say much, Except I agree with Serephel He/She (sorry) is right. If you put more effort into it you could get a more enthusiastic reply from the readers. Do like Mario, i'm a fan because he does quality stuff. As I said with some time and effort you could gain a small following....maybe.
Add on-
What would you guys say is better, Paintshop 7 or The GIMP, or are there any other good programs?
sorry dude, I didn't want to offend so I left it up to you to make the decision. I didn't feel like being observant, I just finished my second straight night without sleep, it's like 5 AM now.
And I guess i'll stick with photoshop, I picked it up rather easily, at least the basics that is. I' just picked up a guide and online tutorial with step by step video thing so I can grasp some of the more complicated things that i'm currently lost on. I suggest you do the same spyro, it could benefit you.
PS. Photoshop made me feel awesome, it was so much easier to use and better than previous applications I used, those applications being paint and other things my friends doodled around with.
I have a product key for Photoshop 7, however, I don't have Photoshop 7. So I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. Some guy gave me the key because he moved up to the newer version without ever installing this one.

Ok, so where is the link? could you send me another?

*Sniffle* It's so true! I hate mjc less already! Sort of! Okay, not really.
Oh, and Mario, Mjc tried to help Spyro, but he didn't care. Check out page 6.
Here, have a picture (Note: This is of paintshop pro, however, paints is exactly the same, just with less choices)
Welcome to the forum and such, but did you register only to back up mjc?
I don't hate Night Lord anymore, and I was only joking.
Spyro not caring does not give mjc free reign to berate him. Using a JPG isn't a crime against humanity.
PS: I got the logo from the Majora sprite sheet. The guy said no credit needed.
