That's exactly why I don't bother to read Classified Threads that have that instead of Pixel Artist in the Title.

Why can't we just use the term "Graphic Artist" and be done with it? It's like hearing about "Pixel Movement" systems. When was the last time you hear anyone comment about a commercial game "They're got a pretty sweet pixel movement system"? | |
Well, graphic artists often work in a non-digital medium, such as print ads. Pixel artist (or digital graphic artist) specifies that the work is computer based. Specifically, pixel artists are associated with sprite work as opposed to broader graphic design.
Iconning iz teh dumbast. | |
Is there any real need for that level of specificity at all? If you just post a classified saying "I need an artist for my new BYOND game", do you think you're going to get any replies from oil painters?

Yeah, I feel the same way. I figure "artist" gets the point across fine.
I prefer "icon artist" as a matter of preference, however. (It being a matter of preference because I prefer it and all.) | |
