Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

So, what's a good way to figure out colors for pixel art?

I'm halfway thinking about making a map, but it's gonna require some art from the game it's based off of. I'm just wondering if there's some sort of third party site or something that can help pick out the right blocks needed for certain colors, cause I don't really make maps and I don't want to have to eyeball it.

I...uh...both? Said game is an indie game and all the stuff in there is just sprites. I have the sprite sheet already, I just want to know if there's anything where I can be like "okay, here's the sprite, now show me what blocks to use for the right colors."

Jawapa used to have a palette in one of his worlds. Since he is perma banned, i dont think u can access it tho i have a bookmark of it.
Just try testing out the colors like this:

Re: So, what's a good way to figure out colors for pixel art?

Eeeeeeeeugh, that is exactly what I DON'T want to do, though. I'm really, really, REALLY BAD at eyeballing colors(just look at this level I made years and years ago; I've tried to update a couple of them but you can tell everything is a bit off.

I mean the easiest solution would be to just not make the level, but I'm feeling a little self indulgent and I kinda wanna make it for me, just to see if I can. >_>

Well I went on my friends account because we made this world together, its a palette. It was made a while back but we never finished it, a few colors are missing. I think it will help.

Re: So, what's a good way to figure out colors for pixel art?

there IS this:
http://ee-colorwheel.herokuapp.com/
but it's out of date.

an alternative way is to use a bot like this one and see what blocks it chooses for what color.

Ah jeez, I've never used a bot before in my life. I'm old, I don't know how to wrap my brain around all this newfangled technology.
Seriously how the heck do you use bots

Thanks. So, it like, automatically puts the picture into the world? I.......think I can work with that? Hopefully. Maybe.
Why the goofy picture of Ramsay though? @_@

some pixel arts limit themselves into a gradient of two colors
