You can find the palette here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Graphics_Adapter, and I use the pencil tool in Photoshop at a 1 pixel size (my screen size is 320x200). I also create layers of checkerboards in all sorts of colours and layer masks for them.<br /><br />I keep a file open of the EGA palette and then I use the eyedropper tool to sample the colours easily when I'm drawing a background.<br /><br />Clicking and then shift+clicking using the pencil tool will create straight lines, which is also helpful!Julia Minamatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02333093975977215893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978297190380048600.post-24815160307749439002015-05-17T17:48:39.168-04:002015-05-17T17:48:39.168-04:00I keep checking back on your progress, I love the ...I keep checking back on your progress, I love the look of all of your screens!<br /><br />As a Photoshop enthusiast, I've been toying around with the idea of giving the EGA-look a try, but every time I start it's never quite right. <br /><br />I'd love to know your basic workflow, or even any tips you might be able to offer.<br /><br />Cheers and I look forward to the next update!Jeevesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978297190380048600.post-82146892171590785152015-04-05T13:05:36.317-04:002015-04-05T13:05:36.317-04:00Hey, Matt!

It's an artistic method. I think if anything has gotten old and tired, it's the term "retro." Pretty soon it will go away. Is oil painting retro? Jazz? "I want a flat top haircut." "OOoh, retro!"<br /><br />Cheers to you.

My 7yr old has already succumbed to using his brain instead of his eyes, with the automatic response "black or grey" whereas my 5yr old is much more open to "purpley bluey" LOL.
