BG'ing and spriting are two different things.

Not really. Not at all. :roll:

Yes, they are. None would come to think of it that way, but they are very different things. Sprites can stick to one style, and are shaded to the light source and according to contrast. BG's take several different types of styles, and light source manipulation is incredibly tough doing so, Since the BG's are flat. Texture must be perfect for it to even be okay and it takes a while to learn the type of techiques used for different materials. Color also differs, and so does the type of contrast.

Well, spriting and making a background go through the same process, even though one may be more extended then the other. But... that doesn't make them the same. I can't sprite if my life depended on it (as you can see if you find my sprite thread.... :sweat: never mind. Don't look for it. Ever. Again. As a matter of fact, forget I brought it up, or I may have to go psycho on you.) but I can actually make descent BG's.

I like this post, because I don't agree with anyone, because MMC is saying that they are the same thing, and M072 is saying background imaging is more complicated/dificult. And I'm saying it's not the same, AND that bg imaging is not that complex/difficult.

And forgive me, I'm not in my most sane of moods.

Let's get Dazuro's opinion. We all know he owns M072 in every fathomable way. :P

Yes, let's. Even though I know I'm right. Unless I'm not right, of course.

There's one problem with your search. Shouldn't you be looking for somebody who does sprites AND BG's? Yeah, where are we going to find somebody like that? :roll:

...And the only thing BG's and Sprites have in common are the programs you make them with.

There's more than that, but they are most definitely different. Backgrounds are generally static, and take up the entire, well, background. Sprites are more active, smaller (again, usually), animated, and such. Usually backgroudns are less saturated, too, but that's still not a 100% thing.

...

Why are we discussing this in my sprite thread? >_>

Back on topic, peons.

because you haven't posted any new sprites in 3 days and we're getting bored. :P
If you never feared the dark before, you will now.
