what is up with the over pixelisation of work these days? hello, it's 2003, why are so many people trying to emulate 4-bit videogame graphics? please explain... is it, as i suspect, a trendy crutch like sunbursts and cooper black?

there's always a place for retro
design

it's nostalgia and part of the whole throwback trend.
and there was no such thing as 4-bit video games. Atari was 8-bit.

umm dude, check out the logo on your own site:
http://albertocampo.net/it looks pretty pixelated and old-school 4-bit raster graphicish to me...

The pixel is the base of computer media.
Neglecting it is like painting wood.

haha @ davetufts. nice one.
I saw a job request here or on Flashkit once someone looking for a "pixel artist." I thought it was odd, maybe, because I never thought of it as a specialty.
I just like the thought of someone in PS zoomed in at 1600 working pixel by pixel. There is something funny about that. don't know why.
