is there any way to avoid bsky mangling (pixel) art with lossy compression? it's pretty annoying that even if the input is smaller, it lossily recompresses it (i uploaded a crisp 19kb png and it turned it into a 54kb webp, adding plenty of compression artifacts in the process 🫠)

i haven't been wowed by a piece this much in a while. the color use, the detail, the composition, the feel... everything about it is incredible

i notice my art is kind of creeping up in resolution. perhaps becoming less pixelart and more 'art that happens to be drawn pixel by pixel'. hmm.

what did you do to make her so upset at you? #pixelart #ドット絵 #art #goth #feet

Genuinely, this concern about AI is one of the reasons why I think having friction in video games is good and why it's increasingly important to have games that simply exist instead of catering to our expectations. Reposting this message from Kojima about "pre-digested" art:

the other picture i drew of this girl is bsky.app/profile/xvln...

drawing something for pride month that involves rainbow colors and im havin to turn off the part of my brain that worries about using too many colors in a pixel art piece lol...

If you have nsfw set to "hide" I implore you to set it to "warn". You still won't see anything except for a blurred post Otherwise once they roll out account-wide adult content labeling a whole lot of people including me are going to disappear from your timelines, even our sfw text posts

robot girls are always tricky for me to draw, and i don't even try to draw the mechanical bits. massive props to the artists that do. #pixelart #ドット絵 #art #DigitalArt #robotgirl #gynoid #android

cropping out one of the hands because you got frustrated with drawing it? couldn't be me. #pixelart #ドット絵 #art #DigitalArt #foxgirl

i drew this so i could use it as a banner. it took *forever* to get the body twist right. anyway i stayed up late working on it am experiencing something similar to semantic satiation with it, where it just looks like shapes now #pixelart #ドット絵 #art #DigitalArt #catgirl

i've always thought it was weird that mages just wear robes and not armor in most settings. surely a bit of leather armor wouldn't hurt movement that much (this one was hard! and there's still stuff that i dislike about it, but pushing myself is good) #pixelart #ドット絵 #art #DigitalArt #witch #foxgirl
