Yes of course. What else?

Edit: To add a little more substance to this post, here's a screen from the lake area.
IPB Image
Taken in ZQ due to lazyness reasons. At first the area was kind of generic and didn't look much different from the field (just with water added). I thusly decided on a flowers theme and it turned into a lily pond kinda thing. I must say I enjoy how peaceful it looks.

Really beautiful Sheik. I'm not too sure on the flower and bush graphics but everything else is eye candy. icon_thumbsup.gif

This strangely reminds me of the Fort Knight's lake area.

Oh noes, you are right! My bad, sorry >_< I got confused because everybody was making comments D:

Also, keen eye you have there! You are right, this is the first screen of Lake Hersila.

That screen looks incredible, I like the water !

Something of my own to show, just playing with two tile sets.

Doesn't look as clear as it does on Zquest for some reason maybe the editor I used but oh well.

Looks great, but the random brown spots look strange. I'm assuming it has to do with your color blindness.

That's just how it is in the set, I only put it there to see if it looks good but I will remove it in that case thanks !

The water seems a little on the bright side, and the perfect square angle of the white water outline around the rock on the left is a little odd, but overall it's a very aesthetically pleasing screen. Very good stuff.

Dungeon test screen, Zquest taken but hey. Thoughts ?

IPB Image

I think I should have some sort of border around the water tiles.

I-I think I'm in love. It's beautiful and well designed. 10/10

Looking for some help on this screen. How can I make it look less bland without fully redesigning it. It's part of a bigger room. Oh yeah, I made a script that crushes pots under your feet when you enter the screen to silence complaints about those pots on the edge of the screen.

Looking for general feedback on this screen. In case it's hard to tell, Link is currently holding that statue above his head about to throw it.

@Jay: Looking great, but it does seem that the water is above the floor it borders, as if it were a puddle.

@Moosh: That first one does look very bland. I think you might have to redesign it. The script is a nice touch, though. The lack of vertical pit borders is really weird on the second screen. Perhaps you could make your own if necessary and then add them?

The gameboy Zeldas never had vertical borders on their dungeon pits, so it looks more like the actual games themselves as it is. Though, the gameboy Zeldas didn't put pit borders on walls either, so maybe that's why it looks a bit off to me.

Thanks MoscowModder, I aim to correct that !
@Moosh- I think you are correct in removing the borders from the walls, keep it GB like.

Nice, I like it. Not sure about the dirt, though. Try tMC dirt and frame it with BS borders maybe.

Alright I will do that and see how it turns out ! On another note while ignoring the dirt for now, I inputed Four swords mountains curious how they look with the set ? I know they need to be recolored brown, and I likely will never use them, but I want it shown.

They definitely give the screen a different look. It feels more like a forest dungeon now because the cliffs look like walls. I'd probably choose the first shot over the second; granted, I'm no graphics expert.
