It seems Link must always throw himself into the belly of a tree, even if Link himself is made of stone!

Link sets this place on fire... literally. Behold the power of The Hylian Phoenix!

I voted for Migokalle. It looks just plain awesome!

I voted for Migo. It just seems more detailed and complete than the others.

I voted for Skateboarder11. It's really stuff like this that can really make the Pure set shine.

I like Migokalle's shot alot.
Best impressive one here.

I honestly can't remember who I voted for. It was either skate, or Migo. Well, either way, good job to them two anyways. I may come back with comments later. Maybe by then I'll know who I voted for. XD

skateboarder11 - 7/10
A good winter and dungeon entrance screenshot. I'm not a fan of the background going all the way to the bottom of the screen though, assuming it isn't a floating island in the sky. But otherwise, not bad. Details in general are good.

dragonsword - 6/10
It's actually not too bad for a classic screen. It has a good sense of purpose for simple graphics. I would even go as far as to say that it has enough detail for how it is put together.

Lord Settra! - 5/10
An okay town shot. The grass could use something more than just a solid green, and the gardens aren't the most appealing to me. A few of the details at the top end of the screen next to the cliff look like they are just randomly thrown in, lacking a sense of purpose to their placement.

Migokalle - 8/10
It has many elements of a great dungeon entrance screenshot. Very well done, Migokalle!

Kenster - 4/10
It's very bland, is the first thing I noticed. But I wouldn't call it a total loss either. It looks like an incomplete screen to base something greater off of. Those ridge tops could at least use a rock or pebbles here or there, and the lower ground could certainly use more than what is there. What is best about the screen is the shaping of the foundational elements, including the waterfall, mountains, and grass types partition. It all needs to be spiced up more. Basic foundation alone doesn't make a screen good, but it is still something to continue to work with.

Captain Migo gets my vote.

I nulled. But everyone (besides myself... ) has great shots:

Skateboarder11: Nice layout, but two questions, It seems like there is a giant pillar with no other mountains around (part of the pillars sunk a little) is that intentional? 2. Why is it in every game there are some trees covered in snow while right next to them, the trees are bright and happy? (answer: adds variety, I guess.)

LordSettra!: I think it looks nice, but too organized. (you'd think there would be a little disorder at the house of a guy who goes to distant lands for years to slay evil?)

Migo: Very nice, not sure I know what link's doing (Link, your in a ancient dungeon. Unleash the power of a super artifact that can surely destroy the place whilst you're inside!) but cool.

Kenster: It looks almost... Incomplete, but It does have nice what it has. (I think that tektite might be a spy)

I voted for skateboarder11. Nice Pure screen.

Voted for Skateboarder. The old-style Pure shots just really appeal to me. Migo's came in close second. Really nice, but you can't beat good old-fashioned Pure.

skateboarder11:
9/10 - Wow, I have no chance against your screenshot. A perfect winter-landscap with background and a secret HCP below the dungeon entrance, very nice.^^

dragonsword:
5/10 - I don't really like the classic-tileset, but this screenshot is not bad. :-)

Lord Settra!:
Yeah, that's me. XD

Migokalle:
7/10 - I'm not a fan of dungeon-screenshots, but this pic is good. Is this a cutscene or din's fire? :-)

Kenster:
3/10 - I'm sory, but there are too less details. Some trees, etc. would be nice. But when I think about my first Quest is your pic a masterpiece. ;-)

It's none of those things... it's the Hylian Phoenix, and it's a scripted item

Oh, ok.^^
When is your Quest playable? :-D

That is a little off-topic, and might have been better off with a PM... but since we're already talking about it...

I'm not sure when it'll be done, but there's a demo in my QPF

Anyways, if I wasn't in this one, I'd have voted for skateboarder
