A while ago I posted a topic about PNG--->GRF converting.
I'm learning it but I'm not that far that I can draw my own graphics.
If someone can and want to here is my best PNG yet.
you have my permission to use it and do with it whatever you like.
maybe later it wil have a parking space and some cars.

I like that, but a lot of your buildings are just edited versions of other people's stuff.

Which can get you in a lot of trouble. For example. I am quite annoyed you used mine and Lakies station without asking.

Sorry about that, I'll remove them and I will replace them by some of my own creations.

I don't think you qualify as artist just yet. Stop copy&pasting other people's art together and present something new and unique instead, and my impression might change, but as long as you're just cobbling together the graphics that other artists have spend a great deal of time on and then presenting it as your own, you're at best a plagiarizer. (And that's the nicest word.)

Maybe his skill lies only in manipulating other's work, rather than creating something new. Not everyone can draw new things after all (and I've heard theories that nothing is really new but simply varied from the old (albeit in a less obvious manner)).

Which license did you release your stuff under? Or did you just leave it to general copyright?
Personally I treat everything the same way (nab it if I want it, and give credit if I use it - leave all the legalese Gibberish for the shmucks.

)

Allright, I get it now here is a building I did made by myself.
I only hope I got the dimensions right it supose to be 2x2 squares.
And I got to fix the colors on the roof too.

See, there we go.

Round shapes is hard to do right in isometric view, so for this I gotta give you kudos. With some work going into tidying up the shading, this promises to look great in the end!

rspeed, you might want to make sure you keep perspective on the doors. The windows are on the same row of pixels, which would make sense only if they were facing the "camera".

I just saw your website, and it seems to be mostly stolen code and hotlinking everywhere. People won't like that either.

I have seen him viewing this forum many times since Wierdy's post, otherwise I wouldn't have said anything.

Afraid perhaps? but why? I don't bite

I'm not ignoring this topic but I get the message and I'm not copying others work anymore and I have changed my site.
And I'm busy with a really large new building: tokyo's sky city.
And that takes a lot of time.
you should check this out:

whatch that video this building is a huge building!
But it will be difficult to get this on 2x2 squares so would it be possible to make it larger?
Or cant it be done?
I've searched the forum but no one asked it earlier before.
This is the best picture I could find but the video is al ot more clear.

You can also put URLs into a URL tag to shorten them......

You're table-breaking. Please replace that link with a shorter one. Although I plug tinyurl, I really don't care which service you use.

OK here is my 1st version of Sky City.
It's not totaly done yet because I want to change the roof so It will look like the real one with those lights on the roof.
And the space between the glass doesn't look real so I want to change that too.
What I also want to change are the 4 big concrete parts because they look a bit ugly now.
So there is still a lot of work to do for me.

OK. here is my best version of Tokyo's Sky City.
I fixed many things and if you think there is something that I can change to make it more look like the one in the video I would like to know.
This is my 4th try.
If you would like to see my first three versions visit my site.
