Never save anything that requires detail as a jpeg please

..

Why is everyones first graphic something like a gun? Why cant people make nice things like a lighter or something

.

Anyway save the ogrinal that has not been screwed over with jpegs lousy crap detail saving as a png file or gif and then we can properally judge this.

Dont anyone turn this into a "omg jpeg is fine and donald you are crazy thread" because yeah I am aware that camras take pictures as jpegs and that those usally look fine and you can adjust the quality in which jpeg saves. I just happen to dislike jpeg because it usually saves things with crap quality and makes them look bad.

You can still save an image and keep detail as a JPEG, but depends on what program you use. Back off the use of JPEGs, it's pissing me off.

Mine was an animated lighter, it was pretty decent.

Hm, congratulations to donald for changing this thread from a c&c topic to a "what was your first graphic" thread on the very first post XD
My first graphic was a bunch of cakes.

Anyway, hm, i don't really like the gun to be honest. It doesn't really scream out to me "hunting rifle" it looks more like, i dunno, a german WWII machinegun or something, except not, because i have no idea what those look like o_O

I don't like it... And in this case, I agree with Donald... The guy should've used a GIF or PNG for this image...

It's an obvious first try. But, I must disagree with Donald on one point: Guns can be beautiful, too. M1, I don't like guns, but that's a kick-ass looking gun. I dunno, it's not very good, if it's for graal. Nice first attempt, though.

You mean aligned?
Also, while this image could have been saved in a different format, JPEG is fine depending on the program you use. Proof in attachment.

me too

anyways, yea, JPEGs are good if you want to decrease the filesize, at expence of quality.... but int he case of such a small graphic, this should probably be in PNG...

I think Donald is more against people not knowing how to use JPEG's properly, than useing them in general...
