Hellow, Amwians! Meet my newest friend, Nereus.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/blackcairn/AG/NereusFace.png

Nereus is a shapeshifter. He is exactly 75 pixels and he wants to be your mental poop! If he likes what you make, then you can choose what he should be next!

Nereus wants to be a Monkey!

@Doombreed Your second apple is really blurry and it's really hard to count the pixels.

@MagicTree, You're 2 short of 75, unless you want to count white pixels too, which makes you over 75.

On that note, I feel it's worth pointing out that for something precise like pixel art (especially when using multiple colours), you shouldn't use .jpgs, because of the way the jpeg compression works.
It leads to lots of ugly artifacts, which ruins the edges of your pixel art.

I recommend using .png instead.

Okay, added the new pixels!

Nereus loved this theme and color change. He certainly enjoys fruity cuties and that's why he chose this theme! It was positively propitious for possibility! Nereus chose his top three fruits below, but first, the silly awards in the order of the hour and minute submitted from just past midnight to just before midnight.

Tom, Rick*, and Cherry Award - kegaumongo
Nereus felt bubbly and bouncy as three cherries. They were so bright and red!
* the word I would like to use is censored.

Tomaymahto Award - weirdlike
Nereus felt confused as to whether the tomato was a fruit or a vegetable, but in the end, he decided that if it had seeds, it was a fruit.

The Beans Award - MagicTree
Nereus felt special and possibly magical when he was MagicTree's fruit! He didn't know what this spiky fruit was, but he definitely felt special.

Hairy Berry Award- aknerd
Nereus felt cut-up and full-bodied at the same time. It was a weird sensation for a berry.

Fruitilicious Award - MrDayCee
Nereus felt sour and sweet and aro maticas MrDayCee's yellow all over pineapple!

Washingtonian Award - Doombreed
Nereus felt austere to be such a popular fruit, the red apple!

Kill it with Fire! Award - AxialCurses
Nereus felt sleek and powerful as a red hot chili pepper!

Not Sour or Wrathful Award - KentyBK
Nereus positively popped at the possibility of purple as six purple grapes, plushy purples too!

Which fruit did Nereus like best?

3rd place - kiwi (aknerd)
2nd place - exotic fruit (MagicTree)
1st place - grapes (KentyBK)

Nereus liked being purple grapes the best. Congratulations KentyBK! You have the next 24 hrs to choose the next thing Nereus should be.

Hmmmm, I'd say Nereus wants to be some sort of vehicle next.
Do I specify whether or not we use colours? If so, Nereus would love to change his colours again.

Sure, my pixel art skills may be mediocre at best, but you have to admit that this manned lunar rocket is out of this world. (/end bad pun)

@KentyBK You can definitely specify color or black only.

@AxialCurses There will never be an end to bad puns. Ever.

@weirdlike We all live there.

Well it was supposed to be a car, but then I ran out of pixels so it kinda looks like a half-heart on wheels. But it does have wheels...and a window so I guess it's close enough :P

Three entries. Do I wait for more or just go on?

I would personally say to wait for one more week. This past week was spring break for a lot of universities, so it's possible the people that normally enter were in locations without readily available internet.

This is a pixelated version of the car that I drive. I definitely needed more pixels, but the result isn't as bad as I expected.

Yep. He's a UFO.

You know, my skill is alien to this world. I mean, I had a galaxy of choice, but I picked the one that didn't use too much space. Yep, UFOs are universally recognised. This UFO might even make me the star of Art, Music and Writing. #puns
