I vote /M/. Rough choice, but it just looks... pleasant.

gray0x's is great, too, but I guess I don't like the color of the sand. Nice job with the floating boomerang, btw. ;P

Popuri, you obviously know how to work with trees, and I'll give you that much. Nice job. But it needs more on the ground.

Yeah, I'm going with /M/. I like the palette better. But gray0x is a very close second. And stuff.

BTW, you should've only had the boomerang in the shot if it was easy to see. It's too small and blends in too well with the sand. icon_confused.gif

/M/ - It's good. I don't know why, it just is.
gray0x - That shot is a miserable piece of crap and can burn in hell icon_deformed.gif
Popuri - bad.

I voted for Gray0x, I love just about everything in the shot icon_smile.gif
Except for that puddle near the middle of the screen looks sorta....like a rotated square. icon_freak.gif

/M/- the perspective of the brush and the trees seem so off, and I don't really like the ground, sorry. It's a pleasant looking shot to be sure, but it doesn't really appeal to me.

Gray0x- it would've been 10x better if the water was blue, but it's still good enough to get my vote. Good design and detail.

Popuri- the design isn't bad, but the colors and usage of detail is. Try using less repetitive detail tiles, and give the screen something to focus on. Maybe a dirt or stone path, or a house or something. Right now it seems uneventful, and the detail is too repetitive.

Lost, water isn't blue, it's clear. Please take 4th grade. No way in hell that shot would look better with blue water.

My assumption is that the sky isn't blue in your quest, gray0x?

Voted for /M/.

Trolling comments not appreciated Gray, I stated my opinion.

However, if you remember your fourth grade, the water reflects off the sky and, for the most part, looks blue. Blue is a better, more cartooney color and would help the contrast in the shot.

If you don't want opinions, don't enter SoTW.

It could just be an overcast day...

It could definitely be- I'm not saying that Gray water isn't possible, I'm saying it would look much better if it were blue.

/M/: Nice Pine trees.
gray0x: I love the beaches you make! *Votes*
Popuri: It has too many trees bunched up at the bottom, and not enough on the rest of the screen.

Edit: Lost, water like that would actually appear to be more gray colored than blue. icon_wink.gif

Woahwoahwoah, wait a second. I submitted my SotW to Shoelace for this week, and he said that he got it and all would be fine with it, but ... what happened to it? I know for FACT that I submitted it. Just a little annoyed... icon_unsettled.gif
