Title: [Solved] 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: zeemo71 on April 30, 2010, 09:11:48 pm
I would like/need the 4 giants from MM sprites please. No one has made them and they are needed.

Also is there any ikana canyon sprites like garo, the little girl and dad,the zombies, the bosses from the castle and tower, and the ghost from the cave?

You didn't say what style.

For zeemo it doesn't matter, because he won't be using it in a game. He just wants to add it to his collection.

Kind of a big request too,

But yeah, I haven't seen anyone make the Four Giants yet.

That would be a huge job..

I may attempt them one day in the future, but definitely not interested in doing them as of now. Plus you'd really need all 4 directions, as well as walking animations.


If I ever implimented them into a 2d Majora's Mask, I'd make them a background element, much like the top of the pyramid in ALttP.
(http://www.zeldawiki.org/images/3/38/Pyramidofpower.gif)

And then maybe have a full-sized front view sprite for each time you beat a dungeon.. hmm..

You mean like thier appearance in SSBM in the background of the great bay temple? I'm not sure if whether he wants ALttP style or not though.

 ;) ok ok I asked for them for 3 reasons:.  1st for my collection like liek said, 2nd for any mm2d cause there is like 3 out there, and 3rd and most important I am making a game that is a mix between oot and mm and a custom game (btw I have made a world map for my game but ineed to post it) but the world is very huge and like 20 dungeons but I might post it t zfgc

Post by: Dark-Hylian on May 01, 2010, 05:11:29 pm
Umm, I'm planning on spriting MM2d in MC style, but it would be just about completely customl, and until I'm done most likely un-collectable. However, I agree with Niek. I would probably do the giants as a background thing, like the moon. And, since all of my Temp files have been wiped, losing about 90% of my progress on my z3 demo for my game, I'll probably be spriting a bunch until I can recover them.

Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Ethelon on May 01, 2010, 05:26:22 pm
Hm, I'd suggest you not attempt a mix between oot and mm with 20 dungeons. That'll take longer than OoT2D AND MM2D. Between them, there are like 15 dungeons including final boss "dungeons." Making something even bigger... a bit ambitious.

Collecting kind of means all in one place, and that place would no doubt be avaliable to everyone, and I'd rather avoid that until I'm done. As well, I agree with the others sentiments about the 20 dungeon game... not going to work well =/

I think I should probably reiterate what I said in your first thread-

Collecting sprites means you're going to horde them, and eventually distribute them. The more you collect, the less *creator info* you have, which means there will be more sprites distributed without credit to the creator. You saying you simply plan to "collect sprites even if you cant use them" is a load of crap, because unless you plan on sharing them in some way shape or form (which is "using them"), there's no point in collecting.

Trust me, no self respecting spriter approves of what you want to do, because it leads to a lot of peoples work being used all over the place with no credits. It's people who do exactly what you're talking about doing that make people *not* want to sprite at all.

This is why people don't care to do what you request.

I agree with this. I have ripped a number of graphics already and made maps and spritesheets. I have posted some already here on the forum and added a few to the resource section. I have not yet put my signature on them, because the most of them are not ready. I would not want to find my rips among your collection already. They are for ZFGC and not to be stored or posted anywhere else. It would be to easy for other people to claim the work as their own. And I only rip the sprites and do not create them. It must be a lot harder for those who actually create their own.

My sentiments exactly Mamoruanime. I've thought that for a while as well, and it doesn't makes sense to hoard without using, it really doesn't make sense, and to tell the truth, makes me not want to post any of my latest work, especially when it has to do with MM2d, and several of the things being things zeemo has requested. Seconded Mammy.
Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Mamoruanime on May 01, 2010, 10:48:14 pm
I should probably also add; if you want people to give you sprites for your *collection*, make a site and let people submit them. Don't go around passively snagging every sprite you see.

Until you start doing it the "right way", every thread you make requesting sprites will result in posts stating that you're stealing sprites. I'm pretty sure people don't take too kindly to you being deceptive in your threads. (IE not mentioning right off the bat that it's for your "collection".)

At first, I was a bit choosy in saying you're stealing sprites, but honestly, it's exactly what you're doing. You're helping the spriting community diminish, and stealing the spirit away from it.

Mm, I agree with all the above.

And I'm a bit confused, did you agree or disagree with me about making a 20 dungeon game?
Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Random on May 01, 2010, 11:21:40 pm
Okay, only one person needs to say it. If 20 people say it, it is just going to make him feel terible instead of convincing him to stop. I'm not saying its good to collect sprites in that manner, but stop negitivly presuring him.

Post by: zeemo71 on May 02, 2010, 12:57:53 am
Oh im sorry I didnt make it clear I love collecting sprites especially good ones (like on here) it makes me happy and enjoy it and when I put it in my collection I just store it unless there in public places like the resource section or spriters resource and half the time when people make sprites n here they never finish them so of corse there is no final copy with the name on it so sorry guys. Btw I willmake my game with the number of dungeons but they will be fun and who doesnt like a long game? Because then it cant get too sad when you beat because then you can go back through it and fin new stuff like the 3 other side dungeons. And finally I seriously want to post the concept on zfgc but not until I post my world map for it on deviant art.

@ Random: If one person tells you you're a jerk, you'll shrug it off. If the whole town tells you your a jerk, no doubt you'll think over your life....

@ Zeemo: That's exactly the reason mammy was making. Non finished sprites (with or without names) are best left alone. If they're not creditted, you probably shouldn't use or collect it. I'm not saying you're stealing sprites, but there's an incredibly high risk. Aside from that, refer to mammy's post.
Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Ethelon on May 02, 2010, 09:55:52 pm
Zeemo, you're ignoring the point.

Yes a 20 dungeon game would be fun, but I'm saying that you're probably being overly ambitious, trying to create a 20 dungeon game alone. You're making a game larger than OoT and MM combined, and you're trying to do it alone.
Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: zeemo71 on May 02, 2010, 10:04:15 pm
Well for one I hate it when us spriters hold back sprites theres a guy on DA that makes awesome sprites but keeps them to himself, now the sprites yougys make are awesome! So I colect them and its not like I cant delete the unfinished ones once I get the final copy.      P.s. Im mad because I decided to post my game details in concepts and I got half way through and it just disappers right from the text box and I wouldnt be so mad if I was on my computer but I did it ALL on my phone. Ok and about the game I havent been working on it lately cause I have been making my fakedex from my pokemon game so yes I know I have to many projects but once I get to a computer I will post my game to concepts then a topic in recruitment linking to the page

Btw I asked for the sprites for my game because they are they only ones I havent found so I need them and why the mm2d sprites exclusive?. Another point I dont steal sprites and whats the problem with just collecting? Its not like im just giving them away im just keeping them there, plus I collect them for the thrill of finding new sprites...but sadly i've gotton too good at it and I cant find any massive amounts anymore, btw im so good I even went through the past 2 forums of zfgc so all the versions are there (of zfgc)
Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Zaeranos on May 03, 2010, 06:45:33 am
Zeemo, you are missing it. This is the first time I actually have heard that you are making a game. Ever since you joined ZFGC you have been boasting about that you have the largest Zelda graphics collection there is and the only thing you have been doing is collecting sprites for your website that still is not online. And each time you request sprites, you don't give any details to why you request it. Not even a style. Thus it is not hard for anyone to assume you request it to bulk up your collection.

Its not like im just giving them away ...

This isn't true either. Just recently, you compiled a large sheet with several different sprites in different styles and from different source and posted them in a topic where someone had asked about them. You also mentioned that for some sprites you did not know who the original creator was or where you got it from.

Your right I dont give any details and i've mentioned my game a few times and iwould be happy to show you guys my collection once I put it all into seperate folders to organize it (ive got more to organize) so once thats done I can (it wont be hard but im grounded )( im sneaking on my phone) but how. Would I do it? Its like 3gb

Boom. That right there is why what you're doing is wrong :P

You're using the sprites you collected by distributing them. Mass distribution of sprites from varied sources means less credit (again) to the designer. It's the reason so many sprites that have originated here that were for looks, not use show up in so many different facets of the internet.

It's wrong.

Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: zeemo71 on May 03, 2010, 08:04:50 pm
whoa no its not like i'm giving them away i'm letting only you guys "see" them its not like almost all of them have credit to the spriter any ways. And man you guys just calm down i like collecting sprites for fun it brings me joy (don't know why but it does) like when i find a link to the old zfgc and find a whole bunch of sprites. Plus the spriting community has gotten too tense they are too worried i mean i've made sprites too but its not like i'm THAT worried about them. If someone steals them i will find them. And i'm not going be able to post them anyways because its too big (lol). But seriously let me be.
I asked for the sprites for my game, now once i get the chance (i'm really wanting to like crazy) i will post it to concepts like i said.

As simple as that. That's why you'd be giving them away, and as a result, pissing off every spriter who's sprites you just stole and passed on :\

Yup, which makes C+C on some of my latest work hard for others, because I've had to partially obscure em. I agree with Mammy, and Niek. You've posted uncredited work on the internet, not good. This is kind of serious ya know =/

Edit!!!: Just checked Niek's links, and dude, you're sooo busted. Okay...

Title: Re: Request 4 Giants+a little bit of other MM sprites
Post by: Ethelon on May 03, 2010, 10:23:49 pm
^ Yep, right there you just claimed that they were your custom ones.

Just by posting them, you're distributing them, because like Mammy said, anyone can just save the image.

This was also the first time I heard about your game, and just by how you've been reacting toward the collections issue, I highly doubt that you could create a 20 dungeon game, let alone a much simpler fangame.

Looking at the far bottom-right, there are some other 'custom' zora sprites that look like they have been recoloured from one of Desgardes' zora sprites.

But there were no username by the sprite and sorry guys I didnt know. But yeah I need to fix that. Btw what do you mean lousy recoloring? I used the same colors as the ruto so they could all match

... That's what stealing sprites is bro. You used someone elses work, modified it, and left them uncredited. You've also tried playing people for idiots by saying all you do is collect them and not use them. You're editing them, and claiming them as your own. Again, that's using the sprites, and even further it's stealing their work.

Plz ban now so he doesn't steal anything else from here?

It is hard to update because I make the sprites on my computer then I have to transfer it over to my moms pc which has the internet and please dont ban me I love zfgc. And tell me which ones are uncredited on da so I can delete them like the zoras and gorons (not on the "custom" stuff. In the names becausethose will take a bit but I can delete the others on my phone) I dont have access to a pc and its hard to type so take it easy. And on my customs the only things that were uncredited were the nintendo stuff and the rutos.

Here's a comparison of the sprites, just for you Zeemo.

Yellow - Same or almost exactly the same.
Pink - Easy edits, minor minor tweaks.
Red - Significant differences.

The palette, which is parely visible, I included it after I scaled =/ is almost EXACTLY the same.

Ican do on the phone ( I tried to delete them but it wouldnt let me sign in) but please dont ban me it was a mistake. Btw I said in the description that these are not my sprites im just advirtising.

Im not talking abouut those im talking about the deviations that say thse are the 'blank' sprites I colected and the zoras are mine except the ruto.  1st of all im not 12 im past that so im in mid teen years (i cant say what year so I dont get banned like hikolol35) and. I will be sad cause zfgc is awesome and so is the people on here. Btw is anyone going to help me with the request? I really do need them. And I put those sprites I collected (not the ones saying there custom) on da because ive seen people search and search but never finding the sprites they need (mainly zoras) so I put it on there so people who are still new to the spriting world can find a easy way of finding them. And look I did make sprites and I do know how it is but realy that much harshness? I mean I wasnt a good spriter (im still novice) so I started collecting them (which I started with pokemon so its a little different so maybe thats why ididnt see what I was doing) and when I collected them I started to feel a sensation when finding new sprites. So I wil fix the deviations at school tommorow when I have acess and get rid of the uncredited ones and the rutos

Because you're being part of the reason that spriters don't get credit for their work.

You only have to be 13 to sign up too...
You sure don't strike me as in the mid teen years >_>

Btw, could you please space out your points so it's not just a wall of text? That'd help alot.

That is EXACTLY the thing you've been denying the entire time. For one, I agree with Ethelon. I cannot believe you're older than 13, (grammar and spelling, as well as coherent sentences led me to that point). As well, you just flat out said you were making the sprites, 80% of which were uncredited,  avaliable to the public. I'm sorry, I for one, vote the ban =/

But the only ones I said I made were the kris from pokemon, the 2nd link collection (the first is the one with a whole bunch ( but I credited old skool mario since there his I justrecolored so there could be some goron and zora tunics, and the zoras that we had the problem with the ruto but I did make the la bosses and mc links and the zoras and I recolored the nintendo sprites, btw sorry about the size but I needed to say it

Ban wouldn't make a difference, he can still see the boards as mammy pointed out.

Well outside of encouraging spriters who don't want their work stolen to use the attach feature instead of hotlinking it wouldn't :p

What about a "register to see links" thing. I mean, its annoying as !@#$% when you need quick info, but hey D:

Maybe you can add a filter for images as well, so it only masks those...

You're basically saying "I'll stop doing what is offending you guys but I'll continue to do it because it makes me happy"... That doesn't really help the situation or your reputation much :\

Zeemo the only intelligent thing to do here is delete your entire "collection of sprites", and agree not to download a sprite just because you like it. If you want to use it for something, figure out who made it and give them credit. Don't start collections. If you don't do all this you'll never get respect here and you might as well just leave.

Well; there's a proper way of collecting, and a wrong way.

A proper way would involve simply saving the URL to the sprites posted, and linking to that. Uploading, hotlinking, etc someone elses work (especially without credit) is not good.

I'd say you get the site up and running, then collect to there. Have all of your images ONLY on the site. On said site you can collect as much as you want, as long as it has the creator and terms of credit. I wouldn't save to the hardrive, just move all of the ones you have to your new site, then delete the ones without names. Simple as that. I'd think that'd be acceptable.

You did so much work right clicking on other people's work and saving them to folders which you later organized. You don't have to delete them all I guess, just as other people suggested, upload them on some site where you are giving full credit for everything.

Plz ban now so he doesn't steal anything else from here?

Banned users can still view the boards :\
Gah, I was sure an IP ban stopped that D:

Anyway, you do need to go about it properly. Even downloading picasa and tagging each image with the url you got it from would be a start.

I think this drama has gone on long enough. I don't think a ban is necessary or would help anything. Zeemo I do still have some advice for you about collecting and requesting sprites. Most has already been said.

About Collecting:
- There is nothing wrong with storing it to your HDD. But always make sure you keep source information along with. Source information about the URL where you got it from, when was the last time you actually visited the page with the sprites. And most important the creator of the sprite.

- If you find a spritesheet without any information even not on the page it is posted save the URL for yourself but do not distribute it any further. Because someone else has made the mistake of redistributing it already without credit.

- If you don't know the credits anymore don't distribute them.

- Do not re-upload and distribute other peoples sprites through DA. I know you want to help upcoming spriters and developers to find everything more easy, but all you do is hurting the future. Instead of giving out sprites, forward people to communities that are developing resources and games. Then those newbies can join those communities, learn to develop and later teach other newbies. By just supplying resources on one website, without having a community you become a barrier to future new resources.

- When editing existing sprites, you better ask the original creator. If it is not possible due to no known source or the creator just does not respond after a month, then it is probably better to start from scratch. When you do get permission always mention the original's creator and that you got permission. Also before distributing your edit, you might want to show the original's creator it first. I don't think he would like it that even if he gives permission to edit, that his original work gets raped and molested.

- For your website. It is really nice to make a repository where sprites are collected. But only post the sprites that other people have submitted to you or where you explicitly have been given permission to post it.

About requesting sprites:
- First it would be good to give some details about what you want and where you want it for. Details like the style, the poses and maybe the animations. But also details about the situation you want it for. I have checked your back log of posts and you mentioned your game once before and in such a manner than you did not even sounded serious about making a game. For the rest your posts were you asking for sprites, boasting about your collection or asking to add WIP sprites to your collection. Give details about what you are looking for.

- Second return goodwill. The sprites made in these communities are made out of good will and to help others. People are not asking anything in return. But if someone only requests and never gives back it creates a bit of bad blood. When requesting for resources be kind and provide some in return. And I am not talking about redistributing other peoples sprites.

- Do not sit on your lazy ass waiting for others to fulfil your request. Become active, even if you can not sprite yourself, you can make a start. Start making the sprites you requested and post your progress. Other people will give C+C and maybe some will make edits. But together you will get a great result. But you will have to take the initiative.


Thus if you want to get those 4 giants, I suggest you start with making them yourself. Improve your reputation because at this moment you have one of a leech. You also start to sound more like you are demanding sprites and not requesting. And you don't give anything in return.

Ok good advice neik and I have started spriting like I said I made the zoras (not ruto) but the other ones, hey did you see the ugly zoras on top? The ones that are boring and have no style? (i need to get rid of those...) those were my start cause I started with a outline base and a gbc zora head and boom and did you see the links? I made those (not the ones on the huge spritesheet I just recolored those but I gave credit!) imade those. But to everyone check out my deviations I fixed the credit problem, I kept some that had credit with them. Like links and some gorons

I'll make the giants...i haven't made something of that stature yet but will someone make the others? I won't be able to for a while cause i'm grounded and I have of list of things I need to do: complete my fakedex (over a 100 sprites), work on my business websites (including the sprite one), organize my collections, work on ripping from PH and ST, revamping gbc sprites (pkmn and zelda), and finally the sprites. But check what I did already on da like my pokemon world map, my sprites I made and revamped, etc.

Also remember that you can edit your posts instead of posting again, especially so shortly after making the first post. Also, you don't seem to be listening to what anyone's saying... You're taking bits and pieces that you want to hear and responding slightly awkwardly towards them. It's like you get the jist of it, but not the whole picture.

No I get what you guys are saying but i'm just trying to continue what this topic was supposed to be about and I thought I did what I was supposed to I just kept some of the sprites from nintendo and ones that have the creditnext to them and i'm going to sprite like you guys said and I learned a good technique on one of the other topics that will help out, in fact I want to make a topic that I could accept requests from people and sprite them or maybe i'll just keep making sprites in my own style (like the zoras and links that I made)
