This is the fifteenth Vexelicious feature article. As the name suggests, this article will be all about vexels. It is divided into three parts: DD's given in May and April, Vexels uploaded in May and April, and Themed Vexels.
Influenced by recent dispute, it has been decided that it is time to make a solidified definition of what a vexel is by deviantART's terms. Please understand that this definition, and the rules along with it, are not made up from a few of the gallery moderator's thoughts, but built from the foundation of what the creator's words on 'vexel' were, and what the majority of the vexel community of deviantART has come to accept as a vexel. These rules are solid, final, and most-likely will not be faltered.
These series have the intention of showing you the Daily Deviations featured for the Comic & Cartoons galleries during the month for you to enjoy them one more time or check them out in case you missed any.

Often the word dither or dithering is mentioned in relation to PixelArt. So what is dithering?
Dithering is the hand laying of individual pixels in either an organized pattern or random scattering, in order to create a texture and the appearance of a much higher color count than may actually be present in the piece of PixelArt.
Here is an example of some Dithering Styles. I have used works from =ensellitis, ~thUg-inc and myself ^ShoneGold to help illustrate some of the styles used by the Pixel Artists.
In order to do our bit to support AIDSWalk 2007[link] how about everyone has a practice at dithering a red ribbon now that you are all familiar with how it looks and a few of the styles you can use?
Here is a basic template you can download and use, or you may wish to make your own ribbon. Lets see how good you all are at dithering. If you send me a PM note with a link to your work, I will feature all your dithered red ribbons in a future Journal.
I'll be joining in with this, I haven't done dithering in a while, I guess I could use the practise
I like the examples you used, I'll have to go find that rose & skull pictures you've used there, 'cause they're really good - gonna have to check out a few of those DDs there too, some have really caught my eye
Great news feature!

We want to know what love means to you!
Get your creative juices flowing and design a movie poster for "Paper Heart" that focuses on the theme "What Does Love Mean to Me?".
This is a collection of deviations showing real Pinups in the classic Retro poses from various Artists. For the 4rd time I present a variation of Vintage Pinup Queens as well as fresh modern Pinup art. If you love Polkadots, seamed Nylons, Plateau-Heels and and Miles-long-legs you should not miss this collection.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

I see you have done a piece about saving as PNG and not JPG as well. I will link yours to mine if that is also OK?
