    To those of you saying that you should always use PNG over JPG in this case: You are completely right! JPG can cause compression artifacts and is meant more for photos.
    Apart from that, hope you enjoyed the video! :)

      Well, there's a distinction you can make here.
      In the video, when you mention that the small image with 1:1 pixel size is too small, which is fine for importing into an engine, that image has to be png, because you're importing to an engine to be used in a game.
      Then you scale up the image for it to be better visible when showing it to people and posting on the web. This new scaled up version can be saved in jpg. Because you're not gonna use it in the engine, you're just gonna use it to show on the web.

    If anyone is having a problem with the grid not aligning properly, go back to preferences and change the grid from every 1 pixel to another number and back to 1 pixel. It allows Photoshop to recalculate the size of the canvas and grid. Worked for me.

    Instead of using the bucket tool to fill an entire layer you can use ctrl + backspace to fill it with the background color and alt + backspace to fill with the foreground color. I think it's very useful, especially when you have to use the gradient tool and doesn't want to go back and forth between the bucket tool and the gradient tool all the time.

    Please don't save pixel art as jpg, this method compresses the file, changing the pixels in the end. When doing pixel art you select the pixels with precision, you don't want the end product with low quality deforming the pixels. If you don't want to save as png, use gif.

    I know I`m a bit late but... resizing the drawing from 40x40 to 256x256 is not worth it because 256 is not a multiple of 40. It makes your "pixels" not square but rectangle (every pixel becomes a 6x7 copy). Better use from 40x40 to 280x280 which keeps the absolute same proportions of 1px. to its 7x7 copy. Except that the video was great. Keep the great work👌

    Wouldn't be a png better for digital or abstract art? JPG is more for photos/pictures or where edges doesne't have to be very sharp. Png is better for digital created images with sharp edges etc. It is also loosless copressed.

    • @floriandury5720
      @floriandury5720 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Png is best used for the web, it's also good because it allow transparency, tbh i realy like png myself but jpg isn't that bad if you don't reduce the quality that much ;)

    • @Crisisdarkness
      @Crisisdarkness 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      depends, jpg uses less memory, but png allows you to have images with transparency, depends on how you use the image, you should choose one or the other

    • @TitoOliveiraDesign
      @TitoOliveiraDesign 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The content of the image is not as important for defining which format to use, the medium where you'll use it, is.
      For example, a image for web that doesn't require transparency can be covered by jpg 99% of the times. Doesn't matter if you're displaying game graphics, a photo picture, or digital art.
      Then for game assets, png always, because of the alpha channel and the lossless compression.

    This is a nice tutorial, but some of the methods he uses are just fundamentally wrong, or inefficient if you're going to be using photoshop for game development.
    First of all, when creating a file, setting the background Color to transparent will save you a ton of hassle, especially if you are using it for game development. This also means that you can modify the Color of the transparent background to be as high contrast as you want.
    Another thing is that you can change brush size using the [ and ] keys, this will save you a ton of time.
    You can also get to the paint bucket tool with g
    Last of all, with pixel art, NEVER save to JPEG, as it can create visual artifacts in the image, not good for anything to do with pixel art.

      Would you recommend PS over illustrator for pixel art? I’m asking because I would like to start getting into pixel art and I feel illustrator may be better because you can resize the image without worrying about quality.

    • @Yipper64
      @Yipper64 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Kevin F Illustrator is probably the worst program out there for pixel art... if you care about image quality in your assets, then you arnt doing low image quality pixel art.

    • @iKevinF
      @iKevinF 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Adam Eason well what I mean is, if I wanna make a pixel art wallpaper for my computer, say HD 1920x1080, what would be best to use? And when I said quality, I meant just not blurring the image when enlarging it. I just want it to stay looking sharp. I thought illustrator because it’s vector based.
      Plus, I’m looking at making scenes rather than just individual characters.

    • @Yipper64
      @Yipper64 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kevin F you would still want to go with photoshop, do not get blurring, you need to make sure whenever you scale it, it is in the scale type of "nearest neighbor" and you should be fine. 'vector based' is saying its specifically not raster based, and in order to make pixel art, you need a raster image.

    Hey for anyone who is looking to get into pixel art in more than just a hobby, I recommend you get Pyxel Edit (pyxeledit.com/) It's only 9 dollars but is PERFECT for pixel art, it does everything far better than what photoshop could do with pixel art.

      I own it and can definitely say it's one if not is the best program for Pixel Art.

    Piskelapp.com is dedicated to make pixelart, and does noet require a "beefy" pc to run photoshop ;)
    its a decent alternative in my humble opinion :D

    Step three: install paint
    Step four: use paint
    Step five: clean your'e computer because you painted on your'e screen
    Step six: open paint
    Step seven: zoom in
    Steo eight: use pencil on the smallest size
    Step nine: do that until you got a pixel art
