This is the reason, I've thought Radien shouldn't release the complete set, knowing that all of his great tiles will be overused.. I hate to see such good work a person has done by themselves with alot of effort, be released and then mis-used by people who don't know how to use it.. =/
Andreson is who I voted for. I don't know why, but he shots really stands out. Reminds me of the GameBoy zelda games. Which is always good.

Nullvote in protest of Gashin not adding my entry -- even though it arrived two days before this SotW went up.

Oh god... "The DoR set is being overused. I don't wanna touch anything with it. 
"
Where were the complaints about this stuff when Newfirst or Revenge 2 were the sets? That's right... no one cared then. People actually cared more about the content of the quest rather than what tileset it was using. Yeah... the shots that have been floating around are not super awesome fantastically cool like DoR itself, but I personally don't care. I'm not trying to make a copy of DoR when I make a quest, so I use it however the hell I want to use it. I liked the way the DoR set is presented, so I started using it. If you really don't want to touch my quest with a 10 foot pole if it ever gets anywhere just because of that, then whatever.
It's kinda sad that I have to fend myself off from this crap less than a month after the set is released, though. Not everyone has the patience to make fantastic tilesets for their quests and it's inevitable that people who don't know what they are doing will get ahold of tilesets. Instead of saying crap like "This set sucks because people don't use it right!"... perhaps you should actually suggest how the person should use it better beyond "add details!" What kind of details? What should be switched around to make the usage better?
Edit: Eh... whoops! Forgot to mention that I null voted (can't decide). I'd just like to mention that it's generally better to have live action shots in SotW rather than just a shot of ZQuest, XdragonSB.

1) Null Voted.
2)It's an Alpha shot. I'm using PTUX for the designing just to get the places set to go. Most of the detail I wanted isn't there because I haven't made it yet. Enemies will be different, Link will be different, and the dungeons would have light radius around the torches. I didn't see light radius tiles in PTUX, so I didn't put them in.
I know the shot is plain, but it really doesn't have everything I wanted in it...

Anderson333- Not much but its the best of the three. It has custom things also.
Def-Edge- It lacks detail.
XD- Looks good man. But there is some things out that make it lose it's quality. Could have added a couple things here and there though.
By the way its getting so idiotic. "DoR is being overused" "Pure is being overused". Judge the shot on the quality not the set. It's so stupid when people do that. It's a good set so why wouldn't it be used. So get over it.

Well I know that. DoR IS already overused. And Overused in a crappy way. I wouldn't have like XDB's shot even if it wasn't DoR anyway.

I see nothing spectacular this week. All three look like your regular run of the mill screens. I would give a light edge toward DefEdge's shot, considering how the tiles look next to each other, and I like the walls.

Yes, I did. If you're going to run the SotW, you should be checking it before putting each poll up.

well, DA, most people here know that I don't check email very often, and when I took over SotW, I asked everyone to PM me their shots, not email. and I checked my email, there was no message from you or with anything about SotW
