Been a while since I sprited, but here it is. May is now a part of Team Aqua! Kinda hard to make this because the sprite is old but I did my best! I hope you don't mind the background, I didn't want to ruin the outline. Also, I have no idea how to enlarge it, could any one tell me how?

Rule #1: Always, ALWAYS save in PNG. JPG is a quality killer and you won't have a chance at winning with a sprite in that format. :/
#2: Never use sprites that have a black background. Save them, then open them in a program that can read transparency. Copying and pasting has its risks for cases like this, where the background is black and unchangeable.
#3: Never EVER resize sprites. xD Good thing you didn't resize it. Why do you think they're that size to start off? Because they're supposed to be! Being any larger would ruin the sprite's quality and intention entirely.

I'd suggest resubmitting this one because of the black background and the JPGiness. If those weren't an issue then it would be a great submission. Same with everyone else! Good work, guys!

Um, so we DO have until the 20th of July, right? Or am I missing something?

Oh no, sorry, just realised I'd accidentally put the following week's date as this week's end date. No, that was wrong. The actual deadline is the 13th of July, at 11:59pm. Sorry about that guys! D:

That makes more sense. I was confused there for a bit. Nonetheless, I have my entry! And I had a lot of fun with it, hahahah.

Hahaha, thanks for bringing it up! I wouldn't have realised otherwise. D: And confused people even more. Well good job! 8D I'm happy you didn't need the extra time or anything. xD It would have sucked if I misled you and that caused you to run out of time to enter. :< Glad you got an entry in!

Thanks Suicune's Fire! It completely slipped my mind to save in PNG! Well anyway, this should be a bit better:
