Dithering in PixelArt

^ShoneGold:iconShoneGold: reports, Sep 23, 2007
DITHERING

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. Let’s 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 made a short gif explaining how to dither for people to use once. I think it's still in my gallery or scraps or something :aww:

Hey nice! Too late for the news article but I am going to add it to my Journal if that is OK?

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?

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!
