So uhh... this is the "About" page, I guess. I might as well explain some stuff. This isn't really a FAQ, since I'm pretty much asking myself the questions and answering them, but sometimes people do ask me these questions.

Why did I make this page?
I made this page on 12/26/06, because I needed a more organized way of keeping track of my pixel art. It started off as something I did randomly once when I was bored, and then I realized it was a good way to waste time, so I started making pixel art more often.

Where do I come up with this stuff?
I usually try to find an image to base it on, since I'm not so good at coming up with creative clothing, colors, backgrounds, or poses. And since I have a huge collection of images (see /misc), I have a lot of images to use. However, it's still hard to find one that I want to pixelate/pixelize (I don't know the word for it). Sometimes, I try to make original creations, but a lot of the times they turn out worse than I expected.

Where do I get my images from?
Most of my images come from 4chan's /a/ or /c/ boards. Sometimes I'll try to recreate the image in Microsoft Paint in pixel form, which is what most of my work is.

How often do I update?
I never set a plan, like "I'm gonna make one thing per week" or something; it's pretty much whenever I feel like it. I only update on weekends or whenever I don't have school, because that's when I have access to my "better" computer.

How long does it take to make?
It usually takes around 1 to 3 hours to make each individual one. The simpler ones, of course, take less time, unless they're an original creation, because then, I spend a lot of time thinking of what it'd be. The more complicated ones with fancy backgrounds take more time, and even more time if it's an original.

How can I contact you?
Yeah, nobody really asks me this, since if they did, they'd already know how to contact me. But anyway, you can contact me by email (see above), IRC (My nickname is KirbY on irc.xelium.net, and you can usually find me in #council), or Sleepywood.net forums (My username is KirbyM). I don't use any instant messagers anymore, so don't try looking around my site for my AIM or MSN names, since I never use them.
