Looked awesome! And your avatar is totally the Hero of Adorable! :3

 

Really awesome Ice Temple! If the item you can get here is an ice cream cone, it'd be like the potion. Each scoop of ice cream fills Link's hearts completely :3

Thanks, and totally agree with you about my avatar :3

 

Yeah it could be a side item you can get that has infinite usage (Gamebreaker! FTW)

There could be a side item, called the "Tootsie Pop" that is infinite usage because no one knows how many licks it takes to get to the center!

Yeah the only thing it does when used is "It taste really good, but it seems it'll take many more licks to consume this" But then it really never does anything. XD

Adding highlights to the gossip stone makes it look flat and loses readability.  When working with small tiles, you want to ensure that the basic forms are clear as possible, and every pixel counts.  The placement of the highlights obscures the crucial details of the tile.

I generally agree with this assessment.  I think they are fine how they are.  they do look flat either way, to me.  the original is tough to decipher... is it flat on top or are there just too few shading options to render it?  does the eye face the playable character or the sky?

Here, why not give this a shot?

It usually helps to add some white highlights to the inside of your tiles. Still keeps with the GB limitations but it miiiight interfere with your transparency. Not entirely sure how you have this all set up.

Ooo, cool!
 
Actually I already whipped something up before you posted this. Should of mentioned this. But still, you done a really phenomenal job and I'm glad people are so devoted into helping me. I truly appreciate it.

Oh no, mixed opinions! What you say makes sense... so what about the Gossip Statue sprite itself? Is that maybe why people aren't sold on it yet?

Maybe if I remove the dark grey pixels on the top half of the sprite it would give more illusion the sun is on it?

How about this Charizard?

[Shane]

Wow, I actually love the tablet look it has. I was going for more OoT's but this one looks more like a cryptic mysterious stone slab and I think that's cool!

 

Will be using, expect to see your name in the credits of course.

[Bourkification]

How about this design instead? I think it's a bit more faithful to the OoT stones:

[ElLibertador]

I like the first one. Last is too noisy. I also liked the original, but I did think it had some lighting twerks. 

[Bourkification]

 

Fixed!

[Jared]

Shane, I just noticed on your screen that the bridge is out of perspective with the rest of the screen. Showing the bottom of it would fix that problem. Like, even a pixel or two.

[DragonDePlatino]

Oh great, I can tell where this thread is going. :I

 

Charizard, just take Bourkification's and be done with it before more people start spamming us with Gossip stones. :X

Will Gossip Stones become the new Chests!?

We better stop before gossip spreads. D:

 

To be honest, I seriously like your first take on it. As for the bridge Jared, I might make something entirely custom in near future.

I'm sorry I haven't taken a look at this lately, but darn Shane. Dat Faron Woods + Me = Mind Blown of Sexiness! Dude, it's too much, have mercy on me XD
