Ooooookaay, it's been a long time since I've been on a computer. Or, this one at least. My dad's laptop died so he was borrowing mine for two weeks. And I'm writing this journal because I'm going to camp for the next two weeks, and that would be four weeks of absence. Kinda bad.

For those interested in Mystery Dungeon sprites, I'm afraid to say that I am no longer posting the spritesheets on dA. Honestly, I don't want to get banned over some copyrighted stuff. So I have a solution. I am either going to post the pictures on imageshack or on my own website when I have one. Seeing how I eventually want to make a GSC spritecomic (and was the reason I went PMD-insane in the first place...), I might make a website.

Also, every time I go on dA (which will hopefully be more often), I will say the status of the sprites. So here goes update 1:

[1-151]- 99.7% completed. Mewtwo sprite is not officially done, and there are some color changes which I don't have yet. Updated--Pikachu (f), Raichu (f), Lapras, Eevee, Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Omanyte, Omastar.

[152-251]- ~75% completed. Redblueyellow is a ripping machine, and is churning out PMD2 sprites almost every few days. Updated--Quilava, Typhlosion, Totodile, Croconaw, Pichu, Espeon, Umbreon, Gligar, Sneasel, Ursaring, Swinub, Piloswine, Delibird, Mantine, Smeargle, Raikou, Entei, Suicune.

[252-386]- ~80% completed. Haven't gotten around to this one, but here's the queue: Feebas & Milotic, Absol, Chimeco, Torkoal, Castform (all forms), Treeko, Grovyle, & Sceptile, Seviper, Mudkip, Marshtomp, & Swampert, Lotad, Lombre & Ludicolo, Poochyena & Mightyena, Duskull & Dusclops. Updates--None.

[387-491]- ~75% completed. (Surprising, no?) Lots of ripped sprites, but once again, I haven't gotten around to this one. Queue includes: Hippopotas & Hippodown (m+f), Chingling, Bidoof & Bibarel, Gliscour, Mamoswine, Skorupi & Drapion, East & West Gastrodon, Mantyke, Weavile, Tangrowth, Gallade, Glameow & Purugly, Drifloon & Drifblim, Lickilicky, Dusknoir, Leafeon & Glaceon. Updates--None.

(Redblueyellow's updates. Note that he adds things before TSR updates completely. Also, some sprites (ie Tangela) haven't changed at all from PMD 1 to 2.)

(only rips 4th gen, and is on hiatus, but might come back eventually.)

Well, that's my main source of sprites. Happy dev-arting, and see you in two weeks!!
