Thank you very much for sending your art for display in the gallery. The way you used the palettes were really good! I'm glad that RPL allowed you to create such intriguing art!

Wow!! Awesome art! This is one of the finest art pieces created with a rejected palette! It's so impressive: the textures, the perfectly placed yellow on the eyes, the moodiness of the art. Just perfect!!

Colored drawing of a goblin lady, all dolled up with giant eyelashes, piercings, spiky hair full of ribbons, and strings of pearls hiding most of her torso. She's laying casually on her pet rat and looking at us seductively.

She is beauty, she is grace,
She will steal those eyelashes right off your face

A pixel art illustration of a destopian cloud city. Two buildings in the foreground are afloat and worndown. In the back is a megastructure with what seems tiny condo units. In the bottom a cloud and in between the two buildings is a flock of birds flying up

I put pixel art on my bingo card for this year ... and crazy as I am, I decided "why not start with the largest canvas size you've done? That wil get you back in the swing of things!" ... and it did! But I am kinda salty about it because coming up with so much detail was an exercise

Pixel art with limited palette depicting a two storey building found somewhere between Kiyosumi Park & Mitsukoshimae in Japan.

My attempt at recreating a building somewhere between Kiyosumi Park and Mitsukoshimae, as part of a collaborative project called #JPPixelCity via @gors.bsky.social using a palette from #rejectedpalettes #pixelart

A pixel art portrait of a dark being with an eye for a face, they are wearing a golden crown with three spikes with eyes on top of it. The piece has greens, reds, and a yellow

Still in a bit of a pixel art mood so for this #WeeklyDenadiris I thought I'd try a @rejectedpalettes.bsky.social ! This is the palette Hot Pepper by Rybna.

pixelart illustration in different shades of brown and greys. The illustration shows a humanoid creature with elements that remind of a snail, like a huge round mouth where the face of the person would be, with wavy lumps of skin reminiscent of the underside of a snail and instead of eyes two eye antennas reaching for the light while the creature is devouring a dry leave. In the Top right corner is the signature of the artist (Sabaku) and the number "005" written. In the lower right corner you can read the name of the color palette (kitty) and see all the colors of the palette in a color strip

Lovely artwork all around! Thanks for using Rejected Palettes ♥

Trying some @rejectedpalettes.bsky.social! The concept is really appealing to me and the palettes there are not too shabby!

Here's a little cozy futuristic café using the palette Cyberpunk by Netic!

Thank you kindly for giving those palettes a chance! The art is extremely well done and showcases ways to use the colors well.

Wow!! Amazing art! Love it so much, the color usage is so lovely!

What an amazing art! This cold palette fits so well with the character's mood and pose. I really like the noise effect applied throughout, it makes me so glad that non-pixelartists are also enjoying Rejected Palettes.

This awesome art plays with the palette's strengths in a smart way! Are the colors harsh? Definitely, so this is why the neon lights look so striking and bright. The tall canvas makes the art feel more oppressive and wondruous, as if you're entering this decrepit building. Really cool!

I keep telling myself to post more #pixelart so here you go. <w<;
More goofy huge-eyes OCs in a palette I picked up from @rejectedpalettes.bsky.social; this one is using the Monokai palette, from the text editor of the same name, I think!

pixelart illustration in different shades of orange and dark blues. The picture shows the portrait of a hooded, anthropomorphic crow person, Looking down at the viewer. The crow grabs the hood at the front with a crow claw like hand. Poofy little feathers burst out under the hood and cape where they can. In the background one can see a bright burning fire, maybe from a campsite, and the orange glowing moon is looming over some treetops In the Top right corner is the signature of the artist (Sabaku) and the number "003". In the lower right corner you can read the name of the color palette (Orange/Blue) and see all the colors of the palette in a color strip

とあるドット絵サイトのパレットとドット絵の奉納のルールが理不尽すぎて僕の作品を何度も拒まれたことがありました。その分けで僕は友人と共に「Rejected Palettes」（不合格パレット）というサイトを建て、没になったパレットを収納し始めました。そのパレットはだれでも使ってもよく、ドット絵だけではなくデジタルアートに採用しても構いません。
完成したアートはサイトギャラリーに載せることができ、かつて不便だといわれたパレットの真の魅力を堪能することができます。

What is Rejected Palettes? A quick introduction

We created this project in November 2020 to instigate creativity. We collect palettes that didn't make it into the Lospec palette list so that people can make art with them. A lot of skillful artists have contributed to our gallery so far!
