Great tutorial, but it always says that my image is corrupted or something to that effect. White X in a White Box and all.

Huh, does it say it at the step of uploading or posting the bbcode?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Whenever I put it in the thread. It shows up fine on Imgur, and I saved it to .png just to be safe.

It does show on imgur, weird.
I reuploaded it and it works


Also, guys we have to decide on the map.
Edit: also when postin on imgur make sure that you are posting just for yourself not to everybody, unless you want

Hmm, weird. Might be something on my end, but I'm not sure on the "fixing that" bit. Eh, if whoever's running it can find what I did and re-post, I guess that'll be fine. Also, quick question, how do these look? These are my first real Pixel Wars drawings, so...

You might want to lower the saturion to give the stone a more natural look. Use the pencil tool for, because not gonna lie, but it looks like a drawing not pixel art. The portal should be round or oval. I'm also not quite sure what it actually is in the right corner. Shading is also an important part of pixel art though not as important as some other basics.
Sorry if I'm too harsh but basically it's not a masterpiece however you can eventually learn the art of pixel pushing. What editor are you using? I suggest Paint.NET. Another suggestion is to look at other peoples armies and their PW stuff.

Here is the WIP sheet I will be playing with . I won't be using the square small dudes, and the demon in the top right corner. Also I made a new portal.

Nah, I knew it wasn't good. I was just using the standard Paint tool that came with my computer, but I'll download Paint.net so I can actually draw well for the first time in...my life, actually.

Also, nice portal, dude. Looks sweet.

[snow dwarf]

Huh, you posted when I was editing my unreadable wall of text. 
Now it should be more clear what I wrote and I gave you a few other tips.

[Greatness942]

Sweet. And yeah, I'll be paying more attention to others' artwork.

Created this thread so that we can discuss our pixel art:

Suddenly the air in the cavern starts vibrating. A weird shape appears from thin air. It's seems to be made of a plasma-like substance. The gravity  around it is very strong.

Meanwhile, from the east, a small scouting party from the Ito clan, made up of Yari Ashigaru and a samurai to lead them, marches across the snowy ground, heading to the ruined castle to investigate it in the hopes of finding a semi protected place for the army to camp later, as well as in the hopes the place could be restored into a proper fortress to help grow their Daimyo's influence.

Awesome

Oh god, I thought I posted my turn already! I've got it done but it's at home. I'll post it in the evening.
