It blows my mind that you could do something of this quality and not know how to resize it. What program are you using?

I like to use photoshop when I draw. Actually that one was scanned and I changed the ink color to red and colored the whole thing and added a background. I used to draw my earlier pieces with a mouse but I think a scanner is more effective

Can't let you go through life not knowing how to resize. Save a copy first so you won't worry about losing anything.
1) If you have a little fat on your piece crop in on it using the crop tool. For this Collab you want a perfect square so hold down the shift key. Select the part you want to see.
2) in the image menu select image size.
3) You'll get something like this (depending on your version of photoshop). You want to set the width to 500, and the height to 500.
4) If you have constrain proportions checked when you set one to 500 the other should automatically change to 500 as well.

Then you need to save 2 copies for the collab. Go to menu FILE > SAVE FOR WEB & DEVICES. Save a .jpg to post here. Do it again, but save as a .png that you're going to upload to your dumping ground. Link to the .png in your post here.

Your dumping ground is under 'My Account' on the Newgrounds site.

Actually, it's very pale purple. I made it using the Grayscale to Duotone method that Nae showed on page 2, because that's when I actually started it.

Although I left it for a while due to exams.

so, instead of white as a backround color, can we use black? I won't be drawing with black, i just want to know if i can use it as a backround color as aposed to white.

That made me think of something
Are we allowed to go in the opposite direction color wise, like going from color to black, instead of color to white?

I'm trying to get more in, but at least I got something in here.

If possible, can the entry be under BiggCaZ instead of BiggCaZv2?

So you just took a pic you'd already done and converted it to monotone? I'm not sure how I feel about that.

If you check the times, You'd see this was posted before that one. Even with the other one, the only other color in there is Green Lantern's skin tone, otherwise, its still all green.
