Hi there, my name is AUREL1EN, and I'm the administrator of Halo Sprites Forums. We are a community of people who love the Halo series, love to work with sprites, and most of all love putting the two together in the form of Halo sprites.

We're a small community right now and only started up about 2 months ago, however our history goes back even farther. The original forums were created over 5 years ago, and lasted around 3 to 4 years before I shut them down due to lack of staff members (everyone went off to college or the military :/ ). We're back now, though, and better than ever. Don't worry, we're all very calm and friendly, but we also play by some rules and do our best to keep spamming, flaming, trolling, etc. under control. There's plenty of joking and laughing around as well, so don't think that we're a bunch of bores either :P

If you enjoy pixel art and sprite work in general, then this is a great community for you to join. Even if Halo isn't your thing (which, considering this is a Halo forum, would be surprising), we've got members that utilize sprites from other games and franchises such as Sonic, Star Wars, and even Portal. Although we focus on Halo sprites, any sprite is welcome here! In fact, graphics of any sort are freely made and displayed on our forums.

Our members use sprites for a variety of different things. They create custom sprites based off of the "NewRayg" style of sprites that InnerRayg created to revamp his original Halo sprite sheet (yes, he's the one that created all of them). They make comics using the sprites that range from pure comedy to deep, intense storylines (and again, not everything has to include sprites, you can post comics that you made just taking screenshots from the games). Of course, we even have members that create games using Halo sprites! If you've ever heard of TriBlox, who is in the process of creating their fan-game; Halo: Out With a Whimper, you'll be surprised to hear that they were actually members of our old forums, and some of them have even joined these new ones. I'm working on a game of my own as well, which will basically be a Smash Bros-styled Halo sprite fighting game. You can read all about it on the forums!

If this sounds like a community that interests you, then join our forums! Click here to just browse around as a guest and see what it is that we're about, or just click here if this sounds like the community of your dreams and you just want to register already!

We've just added a few new features, including a Joinable Group function which lets users with common interests get together and have their own private section of the board! So join today! And if you don't, thanks for hearing me out anyway :)
