The pun in the title is great.

Wanted to integrate Shanty Shaming somehow, but that proved too much for me, so I compromised.

Wouldn't they be models, not sprites?

I didn't realize there was a significant difference.

Sprite's the one with lemon lime, I think.

Sprites are two-dimensional and models are three-dimensional.

According to Lord Previous' Spriting Dictionary:

Quote:

Sprite:
Sprite is a lemon-lime flavoured soft drink by the Coca-Cola company.

However, we usually use the term to refer to pixel art graphics of characters and objects. The technical definition is somewhat more complicated. On old video game consoles, "Sprites" were graphics that were handled independently of the background and could be moved and changed without having to repair the background image.

But honestly, who cares? Nitpick all you want, to me sprites are little fairy-like creatures.

Models of Sprites. What do we do now?

Argue over the definition of model? Because those sprites would not look right on a Vogue cover.

OH NOOOOOO
It's a paradox
We're all going to die!!!

Speaking of hairdos, back when I was regularly changing my characters hair styles without checking the 'net, I used to keep a hat with me that'd cover the whole mess in case I would be unhappy with it. Personally, I dislike the majority of those hairdos... just as I dislike most of the eyes. I was lucky in New Leaf and got some that are okay ^^

This would probably bother me a lot more if I played Animal Crossing frequently at all. I only play every for two or three days every few weeks so I just throw on an ol' flatcap or luchador mask (gotta be culturally diverse) and a snappy shirt and get down to mayoring.

All my favorite outfits also hide my hair completely. (Bear cap and toad hat)

I've never really gotten an appearance I've disliked, except for when I get the super big eyes.

I tend to wear wigs and hats and stuff though. Still been trying to find the Geisha Wig forever T-T

Call it what it is. It's a prostitute's weave. You wearin' a hoe's hair.

I've seen that in my store at least twice in the past month.

that said I have a full red Zap suit so I just wear a helmet and be done with it.
