Hmmm... How about a feature like Contributor Spotlight similar to Thread of the Week??

Quite a few members have updated release lists of their Character Edits, Stages and Palettes on the first post of their threads (I have portraits), so why not shine some light on them by featuring them?? Amidst this star debacle, that's what came to mind.

I'd like to report two robots on the MFG forums: One is EXShadow. The other is Saikoro.
There should be a Saikoro plugin for Photoshop.

Why not have 12 palettes for 1 contribution? Since there are 12 palettes per character most of the time.

I think 15 would be completely reasonable to have it be considered a bonafide release.

now that somebody gave me a program to split a spritesheet into individual sprites I can finally finish and release my 300+ colors Kula sheet. Anyone who does an original palette for her and her companions definitely deserve some recognition :deal:
pls

I forgot what year Infantry did this in the front page.  It had to do with palettes for monthly character winners or something.

A contributor who makes a smart palette that completely changes the look of a character to give them more outfit's than the normal color palette would allow is technically doing a lot more work art/time wise, than a character creator who rips sprites from a game or downloads a spritesheet and upload's them to the SFF.

How many people do you know who go off and make a fully seperated sprite set? It's not a high number.

Yeah, that's more difficult than the original task of ripping/sffing these days. But overall it's less difficult than making a cotm worthy character or, due to the fact it's mostly time consuming, a brilliant stage or screenpack.

Seperating an existing sff hasn't been mentioned though, it's just been about palettes. A palette on its own can't do as you say.

I would say more than 30 people right off the top of my head, but they don't normally post at MFG. More at Infinity, Chrono Crash etc... but I have seen a few creators here like Davismaximus & Rolento doing some cool things. I think a purple star is all that's really needed, but if an award was to be given once a year I think it should be for smart palettes. I personally would feel bad for the Mod who had to comb threw 500 enteries of Ryu with orange, yellow, red, purple colored shirts to pick a winner if it was just for normal palettes. I'm not even sure people would tune in to view the thread with all that chaos.

You bring up a good point.

Since we already have the color purple designated for contributions, the only thing I could think of besides keeping things as they are is perhaps making different shades of purple to indicate what you contributed.

Either that or just keep things simple and as Contributor as it's been working just fine as is.

lol because none of them could code shit and all the posting happened in the fucking shitpost board

is there something wrong that non-coders could find a way to celebrate their forms of contributions?

In that specific situation, yep. MI didn't have many coders. As such, they celebrated the one thing they could do, and then put it in the board that actually killed MI.

well asides from the shitpost thing i don't see how there is anything to deride about that, but if the whole point of derision is the fact they put that stuff in such a board, then welp i see your point.

Stage of the Month could work, as long as the same user isn't allowed to win in succession since we would just have ExShadow winning every month.

Yes, that could work.

An idea I had:
The one who wins SOTM (Stage of the month) doesn't have to be nominated for two months.
