Well here it is! The Jam version of Stinkies weird hobby!

It works like this (If I am correct): I'm going to post a picture (in MSpaint

) of a begining "civilization". The next person will copy it into paint and "advance" the civilization in time. It can be just a few moment ahead in time to a few weeks/months. We keep this going and see how our civilization ends up!

It all stared here.
If you don't understand the concept, ask me.

Please keep the file as a 256 bmp. because gif and jpgs make them blurr alot. and please alos use only the base colors that MSPaint starts out with. thanks.
EDIT: broken image... see real image here.

The forums don't like bmps.

Gif doesn't actually blur them, it just cuts down on the colors you can use--actually I think in paint it just limits you to 256 colors anyway.

You have to click the little paperclip/download button thingie though.

Depending on the version of Windows you have, you might be able to save it as a .png. I can, with XP Home.

And (don't quote me on this) I think the way to get Paint to do .gif correctly is to save the image as a .gif before you do anything (i.e. when it's still a blank canvas). Not sure, though.

Gif doesn't dither, it just limits you to 256 colors. Jpegs antialias, which is not what you want for this.

Should we have placeholders?

[AlmightyPyro] · Post by **[AlmightyPyro]** » Sun May 15, 2005 7:59 pm

first come first serve.

I hate place holders because people ALWAYS forget about them.

*is guilty*

I was just concerned that more than one person might be working on it at a time and it wouldn't be consistent.

[AlmightyPyro] · Post by **[AlmightyPyro]** » Sun May 15, 2005 8:09 pm

then we'll have place holders. But lets only do one at a time.

I don't know how to say it...

I know!
Don't do this\/

Place holder

Does that make since?

First come first serve, but you have to call it so two people don't do it!

Stinkywigfiddle · Post by **Stinkywigfiddle** » Sun May 15, 2005 8:19 pm

I'm not sure I get it.

I did something

[AlmightyPyro] · Post by **[AlmightyPyro]** » Sun May 15, 2005 8:21 pm

no place holders. but call it before you draw it. get it?
just say "the next one's mine!" just so no one else tries to do it too.

BTW: i like the dino!

EDIT: I got the next one!

Leko · Post by **Leko** » Sun May 15, 2005 8:23 pm

But is it a ROBOT dino?
