Here is an antenna (because it was requested). It's fairly large and it is my first one.

It's a Xeno antenna (Make something more terran-ish)

Okay, real talk, when have you ever seen an antenna that looks like that, ever?

Why is the double circle-holding section at a 45 degree angle? I guess it doesn't really matter but it'd be a lot easier to centre if it wasn't (if that's still a problem), and it seems like an odd thing to do since most every section I can think of with direction is facing to the right.

@Anna I've seen similar looking alien antennae in various sci-fi games.

I like 'em, they are kinda like the Prosectionax sections. The shading of the dish one is pretty well done too.

You know, I was thinking more of normal straight stabby antannae.

Hey Zalausai, my banishment has ended so I came here to say that your sprites look nice and I think you should make more.

I think those are boring, but I guess I could make a few.

Question, what do you guys mean by centering the sprites? Is that necessary?

Centering the sprites mean getting any sprite you made and placing it dead center. Normally for making sprites for shipmaker its a must if you wish to just add a sprite for dead center or what not.
Its rather an important part to follow if you don't want to screw up on making something epic or w/e.

Centering means that the edges of the sprite are equal distances from the edge of the work area on opposite sides of the sprite. It affects flipping and mirroring.
