Yesss, I know there's empty space, it's a placeholder for the new sprites.Spoiler: Grosshoe?

small version...the actual size, eheheh. Maybe it'll work as a mugshot? 0-0;
I think it's times 200, but it's a tad too pixelated to use.Spoiler: ick
Spoiler: Larry Prosecutor
Spoiler: Alina Day
Enjoy, run away, comment with constructive criticism (MY FAVORITE OF ALL OPTIONS) or...you could run around town dressed like a penguin, too, but why would you do that?

Just two things:
1. The outline is inconcistent, especially on the arms. (Sometimes there's a black outline, sometimes there isn't)
2. Her head seems to be off. It looks a little to the left... (same for the muffler/scarf thing)
btw, what program are you using?

I think it's a great looking sprite. I didn't even realise the head wasn't properly aligned until Bad Player pointed it out, but it does seem to be a bit too much to the left.

Pretty good for a first time. It is just a mishmash, so (no offense) it's not like it's an amazing sprite,
Not going to disagree there.

This is true. I definitely could have done a much better job on that...

I noticed that a bit while I was making little Franky. I tried my best to get it lined up properly-especially the head-but it wasn't cooperating very well...I'll try and work on it harder next time

Photoshop Elements.

All - In - A - Day?
Either you're extremely SMRT or it's not as difficult as I had thought. =) My thought processes are anything but normal, so there's always the possibility that nobody will get what I say...Plus, although this cannot really be shown over the 'Netz, it's 'A-lee-nah', not 'All-in-a'...but that isn't relevant, really...
Yes. I was thinking puns along the lines of "Oh, have you seen Alina Day's work?" "Oh...this is where Alina Day works!" You know. Low-grade puns like that.

Thanks. And yeah, it is. My fears during editing have come back to bite me in the bottom...
Quote:
I don't see any issues with the head at all. Her hair maybe's a bit misplaced considering where her forehead is. And the Black Outlines are slightly uneven, as Bad said. And her left eye looks...Not right.
The hair is a bit awkward. Eep. Yes, yes they are. I don't see the eye bit...but I haven't been at it for long, so I'll trust you on that one =)
Quote:
To really see how off-set the head is, look at the collar-bones (i think?) and the scarf. The right bone is aligned with the edge of the scarf, while the left bone is way off.
When you look at it that way, it looks a lot worse than I had previously thought 0-0 Yikes...
Quote:
Nope, still can't see it. The Scarf looks correct, if you watch closely to her neck. =/
Hmmm, to me it seems like the scarf aligns correctly with the neck, but the neck doesn't quite align correctly with the body...
Anyways, thanks for all of the constructive criticism! I appreciate it and I'll take it into account whenever I can make the time to make another sprite-thing.

Grarg. If I actually knew about that, I might have been able to give you some tips or something. I just know how to use Photoshop.
(and if they're basically the same, then that shows just how little I know about PSE

Haha, it's fine. As far as I can tell, they're pretty close to the same...I don't have Photoshop on hand to compare, but I know that there's a lot more tools with Photoshop, and you can probably be a lot more nitpicky with the editing. And to tell the truth, I'm not quite proficient with PSE either... I've only ever used it on my photography before. I appreciate your help, in any case.
Updated with Larry...as a prosecutor?
It's a mishmash of Godot, Larry, Apollo, Oldbag (...*cough*) and young Vera. 
Yeah, it was weird.

The sprites look very good for your firsts,
They look well edited but still frankenspritish, perhaps edit the current parts some more besides recolouring.
One more tip perhaps: try to scratch small parts to blend the components more.
I'l be watching :D

1. The head is too big. I think. o.o
2. The lines you edited in are really hard. Basically in the lines between vest and the shirt underneath, and the tie's outline. (This might have been what Ceres was talking about in his "one more tip", but I'm not really sure
) If you zoom in on sprites and stuff when colors and textures change, you'll see the change isn't abrupt; there is usually a few pixels where the colors transition and are in between the two colors/textures.On the bright side, the head is placed right and you have a nice outline :D
Photoshop tip: (AB)USE LAYERS. Layers make the world go round, especially when your mishmashing. Layers make it super-easy to change things. If you need to change something, if you use layers, you can change that layer. Otherwise you need to select it from the hole picture. And then you might need to re-edit the picture so that it looks right with the change. With layers, it becomes so much easier, because you can just work on the layer of the thing you're changing. Layers are also great for pixel-edits. If you want to go in a change something on the pixel-level, like with the pencil, but don't know if it will work out well, just make a new blank layer, and draw on that layer. That way if you mess up horribly you just have to delete the layer, instead of ctrl+zing a thousand times (or having your original image lost to the abyss, if you've pencilled enough)
I really hope PSE has layers. Otherwise this won't have been so good ^^'

I saw it in a couple of places and I couldn't figure out how they did it

Oh, good. I was worrying a bit about the head
You should have seen it when I had Oldbag's neck in still...wow, that was strange. Quote:

It's a good start! Better than anything I could ever do with spriting, so kudos. :DD
Everyone gave such great, helpful advice! I can't wait to see more :]
Larry with the cocky pose makes me lulz.
I really like the first sprite. Blue handkerchief thing is cute!

It's quite possible. I didn't learn a correct technique to resize, so I'm guessing that I'm doing it wrong. I'm fairly certain that at the very least the head and vest are distorted.
(If you're referring to the funky lines, however, that's because I had to redraw them and my hand is a bit shaky. Another thing I have to work on.)

This is a freeware program for rotating and resizing sprites. It won't give you perfect results, but it's the best I've tried!
Larry actually looks really good, the pieces fit, but I recommend that you edit the lines you drew down to 1 pixel thickness.
http://www.natomic.com/hosted/marks/mpat/lineart.html
The great thing about pixels is that it's fine to have a shaky hand, because you clean everything up 1 pixel at a time. XD
I also noticed that your sprites are saved as jpegs. This contributes majorly to the blurryness (... as does my incorrect glasses prescription I have right now, but trust me, jpegs are bad XD) Try using either .pngs or .gifs. Both also support transparency, so you can get rid of the white background and make them more professional looking.

Hmmm. Well, they are saved as .pngs...I can try uploading them as .gifs, maybe. Perhaps tinypic converts them? If so, I could use Photobucket, I guess...
Edit: Who cares about this extremely late hour! Heck, let's clean up some lines, d00d! I cleaned up some lines and weird pixels on Larry. I think it helps a bit. (I took down the image, though, because I made it transparent after that.)

Except for the blurriness, that sprite actually isn't that bad. The only things I would say it that the ribbon looks like it might be up too high (which can easily be fixed if you used layers :P) and the head might be a smidgen too small.
'Except for the blurriness' is the problem. I really dislike blurry things because they hurt my eyes and give me a headache. So that's why I didn't like the sprite. I'm not sure the problem would get better if I remade it, though...
I did use layers =). And I made sure to save the file in three different ways. =0 (still in layers, flattened as a layer, flattened and a background.)
This is the best that I could do as a quick edit--emphasis on 'quick'. I have to go to school really soon.

Yeah, it's much better. The only thing wrong with it really is the blurriness
Yes to the blurriness. It's hard with the face because it's normally...somewhat smaller. I tried to replace it again...I dunno. =/ It might be hopeless.
And, Bad Player, I don't think it comes with any kind of animation software...=/ I didn't see it when I looked through the manual, but I could have missed it...

As far as I can tell, ImageReady came with PSE v.2, but I have PSE v.6. I don't think it comes with, but maybe it's online...? Maybe another sprite editor.
No, I actually don't know why it's so blurry. I put it into Photobucket and it's fine, it comes out and it's all messed up. I can try Tinypic again...-__- Gah, this is annoying...
Nope, Tinypic made it even worse. 0-0 How odd...

Anyways, if it's not the imagehost, I guess it's either still blurry before it's uploaded or my eyes stink or something.
In any case, I'm going to work on making another sprite, but it will take a really long time because I'm going to try drawing some stuff on this new sprite by hand. I'll see how it turns out.
On another note, the 'Save For Web' option does have something about animation, Bad Player. I'll have to look at it and see how it works, but maybe you can animate with it.

Larry isn't really as bad as you say it is, just needs some cleaning up and maybe softening or something around the collar.
The 3rd one is nice I think. I especially like the hair. Just a little blurry like everyone else says.
Your sprites are coooool

Those are semi-transparent pixels. Like pixels that have an opacity of 1% xD You just gotta look in the picture, them zoom in on the area, use the marquee to select those pixels, and press delete. If you need to check if the pixel is like that, get a color selected in your color-selector-thingy that you know you don't have in your picture (like for yours, maybe a hot pink), take the eye-dropper tool, and eye-drop in the places you think are bad pixels. If the select color changes, it means there's a barely-transparent pixel there.

Anyways, if it's not the imagehost, I guess it's either still blurry before it's uploaded or my eyes stink or something.
Try taking a screenshot of the sprite opened in PSE, and post that screenshot up. That'll proably help us determine where the problem is.

In any case, I'm going to work on making another sprite, but it will take a really long time because I'm going to try drawing some stuff on this new sprite by hand. I'll see how it turns out.
Don't worry. As long as you're just working on small areas, pixel-editing isn't really as difficult as it sounds.

On another note, the 'Save For Web' option does have something about animation, Bad Player. I'll have to look at it and see how it works, but maybe you can animate with it.
Don't know about that. Sorry I can't help you there.

I never figured out how to take screenshots on a Mac...I'm looking up a tutorial soon. It'll probably be a d'oh moment...
D'oh. =)

That's good to know. I just had this image come into my mind as I came home from school of, uh, hair. Blue-grey hair. With nice shading. =) I'm going to try to do it justice, but things are usually better when they're in my head...

It's okay. There is probably some kind of tutorial if it does animation. =) (Maybe. =0)
Edit: I think I finally got rid of all of those wee pixels.
