overlay ? Can be pixly or not?
« on: November 24, 2005, 08:42:11 pm »
Sorry for the noob question but I found some cool pics on the web for my overlay but they are just pictures of like posters and stuff that I saved to my pc. Is there gonna be a problem when I try and blow them up and be pixely and is there a way to save them in a dif format so they wont be when I make them big?

Yes.

No.


Find better pictures. If you find character sprites that are pixelated (and that's the way they're supposed to look) then you can upres those and they'll look fine. More realistic stuff though... basically need to start with high-res.
