Hey designers!

Time for something new? I was scrolling through beautiful banner design tutorials today and stumbled upon one whose name had something with Pixel Art. I never really tried this style before and so, I said, why not give it a go?

Here's what came out:

Banner Design 089 Pixel Art.jpg

I really like the vibrant colors in it and just the overall feel of it. So basically it was pretty simple to make. I had to take a nice landscape photograph as the background and then put some pixelated title in the middle, making sure that the color scheme had enough variation to make the silhouettes of the objects in the photograph (trees, mountains, clouds) visible and distinctive.

So I chose the following stock photo for the background:

I had to cut out the lower reflection part as it was too much and didn't fit the supposed Twitter header dimensions of 3000x1000 pixels. Next, I chose a font and made an image of it in a very small size. And lastly, with the use of Photoshop's magics, I pixelated everything until eventually things made sense and I was satisfied.

For those of you interested in making these, I'm planning on releasing a tutorial on pixel art somewhere around next week. So stick around and enjoy your lives before we meet again!
