Who could have guessed?
I'm applying to the sprite team! :D
So first I'll start with the story of why I joined Maplemation and how I started making pixel art
(you can skip to the sprites if you think its too long or boring which it probably is)
"Who are you? Why did you join?"
First of all, I'm Talal, also known as Mr.Bk.
14 days from today it will be a whole year since I became a member, and to me it was an amazing year because I learned to make pixel art within it
Why did I start making pixel art?
I wanted to make a game. yes.. the reason is kinda stupid in a way.. specially that I had no knowledge in programming and that kind of stuff, so I just started with making pixel art. at first it was more like a secondary thing, but then I got really attached to it and threw away the idea of making a game just to focus on my pixel art skill.
Who told you about Maplemation? and why did you join?
Well..to be honest it was by luck, I was just browsing some stuff on Youtube and by coincidence I found one of Aquila's animations, I clicked on the video and it was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen,
I thought in my mind "how can someone make such great animations like this? and who are these people?"
so I searched some more and found about the Maplemation's site, when I saw that there is a "Sprites" section I joined immediately

"Why do you want to join the Sprite team?"
While looking through the Maplemation site, I found about the teams system, I looked into the sprites team and I was impressed by how awesome the team members are
and I told my self "I'll be good enough to join the sprite team" so I challenged my self to improve my skill as fast as possible and join the sprite team within a year.
so wanting to join the team had a huge impact on how motivated I am.
but to be honest I got busy with some stuff and I completely forgot about it and lost interest ,
so the main reason I want to join now is because it was suggested to me,
But still.. it may be a good reason for me to become more active again.
