Pixel Art

Pixel Art is:
- Creative mind
- Art made of pixels
- Combination of images on computer displays and video games
- Arts and images in video games
- Digital art/retro drawing
- Lower resolution art
- Modern graphics resolution in video games
- Modern art depicts works/images that existed in the past

The Pixel Arts are the re-drawing of the pre-existing works of art and are not entirely the property of the Pixel Artists, so the Pixel Artists must properly credit the previous creator.

Pixel Art that comes up frequently is:
- Image of man with headphones on neck
- Rocket picture
- Star picture
- Picture of pink heart on blue background

The parties that usually need Pixel Art are all of the Video Game Industry, and usually, the Pixel Artists do the work in the Video Game Industry. Video games are the efforts of a group of people (developers, artists, writers, and designers) collaborating to create games.

Pixel Art can be found at:
- Atari 2600
- Nintendo Entertainment System
- Sega Genesis
- Early computer graphics
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Space Invaders
- Donkey Kong
- Mario
- Kirby
- Pokémon
- Pac-Man

The Pixel Artists are the ones who should focus on the placement of each unit in their images. The Pixel Artists need to be able to capture the basic shape of the subject while keeping it simple. The Pixel Art that requires a high level of attention is in dire need of the Pixel Artists.

Tools that can help the Pixel Artists to create the Pixel Arts:
- Screen on PC, Laptop, and mobile phone
- Squares on the Pixel Grid
- Pencil/Brush
- Line

Simple Tips when Creating the Pixel Art:
- Study the pixel characters from the works of past artists
- Simplify the complex shapes (hands, facial expressions, and more)
- Design the drawings for modern consoles and PCs
- Save the Pixel Arts as the PNG and GIF Files because the compression applied by JPG can interfere with the quality of the Pixel Art pixel by pixel

Some Online Communities that can help the Pixel Artists:
- On the Behance Community, the Pixel Artists can share their work and portfolios to showcase their work in front of potential employers
- Social media account called Pixel Dailies can encourage artists to create works based on themes, such as breakfast, epic heroes, zombie plague, or relaxation

Soon, the Pixel Art may be out of date and may be over, but the Pixel Art lives on as a certain artistic choice. Evoke nostalgia when working with pixels while still creating the Pixel Art. The Pixel Art is simple, but still complex and needed.

Direct Message On Twitter And Elon Musk

Elon Musk's unique personality is a source of interesting change to study. Elon Musk's deal to buy Twitter personally is also a major change in the world of business and technology.

About Direct Messages on Twitter and Elon Musk:
- Twitter users can delete the Direct Messages from their accounts, but the Direct Messages that have been sent can still be accessed by the recipient
- All Direct Messages that have been sent are already stored on the Twitter server unless the personnel who have access to it delete them
- Maybe Elon Musk will be able to read all the Direct Messages on Twitter

A few things that all Twitter users want:
- Twitter users can delete all Direct Messages they have sent and received, not just some of them
- Twitter provides the end-to-end encryption of Direct Messages that renders Direct Messages unreadable to the platform that transmits them
- The users hope Elon Musk doesn't read all Direct Messages on Twitter

The anxiety over privacy is a part that has always been a concern for the technology used by its users. The sensitive data collected by software and internet companies are constantly changing hands when it's sold, and users are often uncomfortable with it. This can all be seen from the following facts:
- When Google acquired Nest in 2014, all Nest users were worried that all the data in Nest would be used for advertising by Google
- When Facebook acquired WhatsApp, suspicions arose that WhatsApp would share its data with Meta Platforms Inc.

Therefore, all technology users should also be aware of:
- Personal data
- Cybersecurity
- Protection provided by the technology to the users

When the Twitter can't give its users what they want, it's recommended that the users use:
- WhatsApp Meta
- iMessage Apple Inc.
- Signal
