Hi there. So I recently got back into spriting a bit after years away and couldn't help but notice that one of the problems I had years ago still exists. No one's made a Tetra sprite sheet. So I sat down and spent the last several days making this.
What do you think? Good enough to submit?

I think so.

Aside from the unnecessarily gigantic tag, I see no problem with this.
Make the tag smaller (and more readable, the black on two-tone purple is hard to read) and it should be fine.

it is only an edit.
it would be better, at least, if you smothed the hair shading a bit and made it bobble in the animations. Also change the face into something not to manly as link

The lighter outline on the hair is really distracting, too. Link has lighter outlines, but they work with the lighting, not "oh it's his hair and his hat I guess it's time for a different outline color now."

This person hasn't responded back yet. Too bad because I think this is actually an example of a good edit.

Thanks for the feedback, all of you. I was also thinking the tag didn't quite work so I'll definitely change that.
I'm not exactly sure how I'd make the face less "manly" so that might be a tricky thing to go about changing. I can certainly give it a shot though.
The hair outline is another thing I was kind of thinking I should change up a bit so I'll see about that.
I'll make these edits and post the changes as soon as I can. I definitely want to make it the best I can before I submit it.

You're on your way. Just a little more editing.

There's two ways I know of to make a face this small less manly. One is to tweak the lower corner pixels to adjust the roundness or sharpness of the face. In this case, I wouldn't recommend this unless the other method fails.
The other method is to change the the style of the eyes. In this case maybe to a softer expression.

In other words, no more angry eyebrows.

I can do that, thanks.

Okay, so here's the edited version.

I changed the tag, fixed some of the shading on the hair, changed the eyes so it will hopefully look more feminine, and fixed the hair outline so it looks better. Better overall?

Looks quite a bit like
Tetra to me. Good job doing an edit that involves effort.

It might just be me, but those black pixels at the tops of her eyes give me the impression that she's half asleep or bored.
I don't really see any errors elsewhere though and I genuinely look forward to seeing this finished.
Also, you wrote "Tinybti" instead of "Tinybit" in your credit tag.

Blah, I got distracted by college! Um, so yeah, I made some edits that make the animation smoother and fixed that typo. Mighty Jetters, I tried changing that pixel you were talking about but it honestly made her look more sleepy/bored. ^.^; So I left it. I'm going to go post it over in the submissions thread now. Thanks to everyone who supplied feedback.
