Shoshon the Elegant - This seems pretty good, I really like the general structure and design of the screen. Pretty interesting to see an Armos Knight being used as a king too. I don't really have any complaints about this one so nice job.
xanadude - This looks really nice! Besides the clouds in the background, was this all sprited yourself? The only thing that really bothers me is the fact that Link kinda goes outside the box at the top or bottom. I think it would look much better if he was cut off at the sides just so it doesn't have this weird effect taking place.
Ecruteak - Basic but good. I like the custom mountains and tiles you have here, they definitely make the area look quite unique. As a suggestion, maybe you could make the bones and stuff white instead of brown? I imagine it might make the screen look a bit better, but that's up to you.
Dimentio - Oh no are you making an ice dungeon? reeeeee Ok but seriously, this looks pretty neat and I like the design of the screen. I personally find it a bit weird how the top wall kinda just goes off to the sides there with the black void just below it. I generally try to avoid doing things like that since it looks a bit weird, maybe you could try and cover up the void at the top by extending the walls or something? Either way, looks good.
Kinda tough to choose this week, but I'm gonna go for Shoshon.

Another thing, that throne is made with a bunch of FFCs throne on top of 2 chair combos.
I would change a few things with my own tiles though.

I finished this dungeon aside from a little refinement earlier.
xanadude:
I have a hard time looking at this as a "screenshot" personally, but it still looks very nice. You got the shape down pretty much spot on, though I would put Link's foot on ground instead of black.
Ecruteak:
Love the mountains. I feel like the screen might be cramped however and it's lacking in contrast. My advice is to throw in different colors.
Dimentio:
Excellent. If I were to vote out of the three that aren't mine, I'd vote here. Solid composition and pretty colors.

I mean, it's shot of a screen from my game, so I don't see why it wouldn't count. The reason Link goes out of the artwork is for many creative reasons I personally thought were useful. For one, it actually looks more jarring if Link's sprite is cut off, since the frame of the scene needs to be a certain size to match the others. And the main reason I chose to display him this way is because it's the shot where Link enters Hyrule. He is entering the scene of the game, and the art reflects that by showing him walk into the scene.

Now that you mention it that way, I can see Link walking into the shot. Which is kind of cool after a second look.
I wasn't talking about cutting off his foot before, just bringing the rock down. This is your vision though. And I think it's fine as is.

Kinda glad I'm not the only one triggered by void-ceiling in gameboy!
I'll write up a detailed post later.

The entire point of the void ceiling was to make the dungeon feel more LA-like. The top wall is an except I wasn't sure of how to handle.

You've been told that this is unacceptable by Einsiety, and I posted about how this is against SotW rules, and even PureZC rules in the last SotW.nope.
Einsiety's post...
This is what I led in with on last weeks SotW.Looks like someone could use some edumacation.screenshot critique is a different thread, but, generally, I vote for pretty ones and/or ones I want to play. thank you.
1. When commenting on screenshots, please leave constructive feedback.
Screenshot of the Week 645
This is spam, and is unacceptable by both SotW, and PureZC rules. Further posts like this will result in actions being taken, including removing your access to Screenshot of the Week.Just putting this here as a reminder to the rules in Screenshot of the Week.
There should not be any one or two word posts... anywhere on PureZC, as it counts as substance-less. If you don't have anything to comment on for any of the screens, then there isn't really any reason to post at all. Thank you.1. When commenting on screenshots, please leave constructive feedback. The screenmaker will find it most helpful if you list both the positive and negative aspects of their screen in a clear, polite manner.

If you're not voting, you could still explain why. I mean, don't like any of the shots? Why not point out what it is that you dislike about them, instead of just indicating that you do dislike them?

adding more words wastes my time and y'all's.
How about not posting if you don't want to waste our time presenting an opinion then? This isn't a "you're mean please keep your opinion to yourself" kind of post but your logic is quite baffling here. If you have enough time to express the bare minimum of an opinion surely you have enough time to at least justify and validate your post just a smidget so it doesn't come off as spam. A sentence at most. It's a message forum, you're not wasting anyone's time making us read a sentence or two.

I voted Dimentio! I like the vibe I get from his dungeon screen, good job.
