This is *beautiful*.

I haven't had any time to myself in weeks, so, while I've been downloading some levels, I haven't had the time to play any - let alone comment. However, the screenshot for this one was so intriguing that I just had to try it, and thankfully it was small, so I could actually play it in its entirety!

This level has a very unique look and atmosphere. I love the rounded, organic look, and the colour combinations. The music went well with it, too. This is one for the favourites folder!

I found one wallswim, though. See below.

Could I use this tileset for the Great Art Community level? Or is the tileset even public?
Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau,
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know,
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand,
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands.

I'm trying to decide if I'm ready to make it public.  It will be eventually, but I don't think I'm done with it.

As for using it for the Great Art Community level... hehehe, I kind of want to enter that with it.  It is my baby after all and it is highly influenced by my art work, which I'll post a pic of real quick just for the heck of it.

Once I'm done tweaking this tileset, I'll make it public, but I'm not quite ready to do that yet.  Keep on my case about that, however, or I might get lazy and not get around to it.  :)

Oh alright, I understand. Very nice tileset btw. (that's why I wanted to use it)

This level is very unique with the tilesets, It was good for the fact that you also had to backtrack to get the rest of the powerups. Its good how you made all different colors for one tileset. Did you change the HUE and Saturation, You have a lot of patience if you used only the paint can. (Paint.NET)

Anyways, good level

I use gimp 2.0.  I heard someone mention it on the forums, tried it and fell deeply in love.  Easiest and most versatile program I've ever used.

For the trees I simply changed hue and sat, but with the smooth stones I actually made a template.  With the template, I can make a smooth stone tileset from any pattern.

And thanks for the comments.   :^^:
