Twilight_Knight:
2005: Not bad for first tries, the second could be really exciting, except if it's part of a whole forest, then this foliage can be annoying all over.
2006/7: With higher detail, these could be wonderful. So, you had skill, just were inexperienced.
2008: And so here you are with DoR2.0 Improvement since 2006, but DoR and DoR2.0 screens hard to compare. Still, your evolvation was continous, and seems like it takes time for you to get used to a new tileset.

2005: Well, I used NewFirst and basically didn't know how good screens looked that time. I didn't play much quests so. Anyway, for example I use many minitrees on the screen border in the first screen(winter), that bugs me now.
2006/7: It were the first times using DoR and everytime it was a different area, I improved in the main time though, wished I could show some later screens, but I only have the older files.
2008: No comments on that.

@vravelo: I don't get what you mean either, if you want to critisize someones screens I would first advertise to use the right words. What does "I can give a full set of credits to the maker..."? I think all these things were made by LinkMystro? Ehhh.... icon_confused2.gif

Ohh, forgot to comment on LinkMystro's screens:
I think all screens are a little to cartoonish, but I remembered you making some great Tileset, but where is it left? icon_unsettled.gif I also think you change to fast from projects, you should stick on to a quest/set sometime, see what you can get out of peoples comments, don't drop your projects to fast, maybe they turn out to be great. For the now screens, the last one, you should do some improvements on the trees, the trunk looks to thick this way.

And that's the end of the line... Woah, that's ALOT of screens... :/
Oh well, that is pretty much most of my ZC history... but I forgot things like OoT 2 and some other stuff... not importand, and they sucked anyways... ask Naldrag icon_razz.gif

There's a few people that has helped me on the way...
ShadowTiger, who gave me inspiration to continiue with ZC, along with helping me with... almost all apects of ZC...
Naldrag, who kept nagging me about how bad my OoT 2, WW2, TP 2 ideas was, ans that I should create somthing of my own... (which I did)
My friends who keeps asking me when my demo is done icon_razz.gif
Thanks to all of those... I know there are many more, but... meh... too many names icon_razz.gif

Migo, I actually like your WW2 screens a lot. Wait, WW2 could be Wind Waker 2 or World War 2. icon_smile.gif Regardless, they looked good, because I like the old DoR a lot, and they used GB trees. You should have stuck with the project.

WHAT?! WH-AAAT?!
You GOTTA be kidding me now... You... you LIKED them?! OMG!
No, seriously... they're the worst thing I've EVER prodouced... EVER...
and the main character'sname was Knil! (no offence CastChaos) but... that's a lame name... especially since it was Link's younger brother... and his grandma's son... so... uhm... HOW would she be able to do that?! He'd be his bg brothers father... uhm...
No, that wouldn't even work... See? My ideas back then SUCKED!

What can I say? I like the old DoR more than the new one. I miss that old LttP grass, and dislike the spidery SD3 grass. But everybody likes the new one better, which forces me to use it while thinking back to the wonderful old one.

And, I actually think that Link having a little brother sounds neat.

Russ- you liked the WW2 screens? Heh, Migo's improved so much since then.

Your timeline here is by far the best so far, Migo. I enjoyed reading over it. icon_wink.gif

I'm not the kind of guy who gets mad when people do something like make straight cliffs and grass borders, and not using detail. That's why making good screens is so hard for me. To me, one with okay detail and straight cliffs is fine, as long as it's fun to play.
