@msstitcher - I can't see yours, could you re-attach it please?

@blackberrybear - Here's an export for you!

Thanks. Strange the back stitch lines didn't show up.

I tried scanning my Stitched Pixel Me, and it looks a lot better than that other pic. Here it is:

I think I may try scanning my work more in the future. It's a lot more accurate.

Oh, and BMH, it does kind of look like a cake. :D
I'd love to see a pic of your long hair, btw! :grin:

Ahh I think that was because of how I exported it. Here's one with your backstitch lines (although they are sort of fuzzy because they've been pixel'd!):

It's just like the cherry bakewell tarts I buy in the village bakery!

That's totally an awesome idea! And it makes so much sense too.

I really had no idea how I was going to pixelate myself, so I almost sat this one out, but I finally had an idea yesterday!

I have a 3DS, and it has a feature where you can take a picture of yourself and it gives you a Mii that looks as much like you as possible. It does look a bit like me, I suppose, and the mouth looks a lot like the smirk I have on my face in nearly every picture of me haha. So I decided to make a pixelated version of the Mii in MS Paint (lol), and made a few changes, like the color of my hair. Here's the Mii, the pixelated Mii, and the real me. Of course, I really hate the picture of me, but it's pretty close to the way the pixel Mii looks, so I had to use it.
