Description
Ok well yeah. Originally I wanted to make a poster highlighting the genius that is the legend of zelda series. I figured I would start out (and center with) the classic 8-Bit Link from the original series. After working on it more I figured it would be better if it took to a theme such as an entire sprite covered poster.I may continue to add more things since I'm not a hundred percent sure I am done, but for now here it is!
I hope people like this please favourite

change the color of the text where it says "The Legend of" because it is difficult to see against the dark background. either that or change the background color to something lighter that can contrast with the rest of the poster, and I think that it would be complete. otherwise, AMAZING job.

great job man... I have a little question how can I increase and decrease the size of a pic without giving it a distortion look in Photoshop cs series?

Before we begin..you shouldn't have trouble decreasing the size..but as for increasing...
I can see why you would ask that, as you can see this is using blown up sprites. Unfortunately there is no way to dramatically increase the size of a picture inside any program without pixelating it. This is because the picture is simply too low resolution and theres nothing you can do to fix it.
If you are curious as to how I got this to stay high resolution from pictures whose initial size was probably 10x10 pixels...it was certainly an ordeal. I ended up blowing them up and tracing over the outlines by making sure I used the exact same colours, thereby avoiding that distorted look you are speaking about.
If you worked in a program like adobe illustrator you would be able to make a picture any scale when working with vectors... but unfortunately you aren't able to increase the scale of a picture without it getting distorted.

Oh I see thnks for your advice I'll try the adove illustrator thing with scale although I dunno how to make it but I am going to youtube that... or maybe you know

Well what I mean is like if you made something in adobe illustrator, like a vector it basically is a mathematical equation to fill the space with a certain colour so you could change the dimensions..
but if you are EDITING an image yeah there is absolutely no way.
