CC- all of my shots are always cropped ZQuest screens, I just throw Link in there to make it look action-ish.

I nulled.

CC- It seems your creativity is limited by the tile selection of DoR, thus using overworld tiles with a cave set and a lot of other messy looking stuff that doesn't blend with it. I suggest you start drawing a lot more of your own tiles now so that someday you will be able to express your ideas more beautifully with them.

HylianLegend- DoR Grass and Dirt mixed with GB style stuff, MC trees, and those mountains from ZFGC doesn't work that well for me.

ZebraStallion- Quite bland, honestly. This has to do with the problem that Pure's pallete has a plain straight green and brown color ramp. Get some more color with flowers and such and using lake borders on grass doesn't look good. Try using the subtler transition tiles, if you know what I'm talking about. icon_thumbsup.gif

Links R Us- The pallete is too blurry and not vibrant enough for MC tiles. Also there is too much style clashing, again.

Giddidy- Great use of the SD3 tileset, but there isn't much else to say.

LostinHyrule- What I wanted to say has already been said.

Y... yes? Limited by DoR? If you mean it for this screen, then I can't disagree you, since I put down all custom tile idea here... But if you meant it for my whole quest, then I can say that I ripped a lot of tiles from the MMDWR set, from ALttP set, NoeL's tiles, some other random places and drew a lot of custom tiles including a 100% custom dungeon wall set... Of course, it's still not enough, I should draw even more... It's just extra time and I'm still nowhere in progress.

I voted for LostIn. I'm not too fond of the rain, and the rock so close to the left side of the screen is a bad idea. However, the general feel and setup of the screen is great. Very depressing and graveyard-y (Yeah, that's my word for today)

Glad you liked my shot, Relic.

Oh, and even though it's too late for me now, this is what I would've posted given a bit more time:

I have a question, for the next SOTW, would I be alowed to submit an updated version of my screenshot? I didn't see anything in the rules about having the same screenshot twice...

You can. I believe Link1996 submitted two years in a row. It was an accident, but still... icon_razz.gif

But I can almost assure you that you will not win, if people have seen the shot before. Unless you REALLY change it.

Well, I coted for Link R Us, because I like the array of colorful, cartoony tiles.

That looks a lot better. The rain is no longer a distraction, yet you still experience the effects of it. The color change of that ledge is also much better. With certain color distractions removed, it is much easier to notice the best parts of the shot.

What he said. Though, my main beef with the rain is that it's too repetitive. When the rain is so thick like that, there should be two alternating tiles, at least. But, since it's a Game Boy set, and they're not exactly the most detailed graphics of all time, it works
