First one in here.
My vote this week goes to Octorockoncrack.
Shoshon - You got some funky things going on with this screen. The pallet is a little out there but it works for me. I kinda see the goop as honey and that works. For me I think more than anything else it is the beehives. The way they're positioned on the walls with the walls at that angle makes them look a little flat, though I'm not sure how'd you fix it. You intrigue me again with design though. "Beehive Bank", something I would never have thought of.
Octorock - This screen is flawless. Between the tiering of platforms and terrain, it has a nice transition. The shadows mixed with the rain give it an ominous feel. I like the look of the blue rope (which could be a flashing rope caught in that instance). Great work!
Anthus - I think I've seen this screen before. The perspective is a lil wonky with the top tiles of the bottom of the pyramid going on top of the horizon. Might look better if everything was one tile back. The horizon backdrop is really cool and the pallet is real pleasant and works well with an NES feel.
All three of these shots bring a different flavor. I like them all very much. Keep up the good work guys

Shoshon - "Beehive Bank", that is something I would've never thought of. I like what you got going though, it's a pretty interesting concept and I like the idea with honey and honeycombs. Also interesting to see bees being guards. I think the ceiling could be worked on just a little bit since it looks like each tile doesn't fit too well with each other, I can't really explain but like something with the default Outlands tiles in the tileset would be good. Unless it's intended to look like that, then that's fine. Minor nitpick tho.
Octorockoncrack - Pretty nice shot all around, seems pretty interesting to have the beach area be all dark like that, that's something I've never seen before. Really sets the tone of the area well IMO.
Anthus - More pyramids I see Looking pretty nice, I really like the simple but effective background and the blocks around the pyramid look cool. It would've been cooler if the central pyramid had similar designs too, but ah well.
I voted for Octorockoncrack this week.

Persona 5 had a dungeon that was a bank, and I thought that was cool. DKC had a bee boss, and I know DKC2 had like a couple bee levels I believe.
And then I thought about how perfect it was for bees to protect a bank the way they protect their hives.
Yeah. The roofs do bug me a little bit as well. I don't really care to change them though cause they don't distract me really.
And changing the colors would mean editing an existing CSet. Which would complicate things for me.
I may be able to edit it to not have the wide line though.

Null'd, but I would have voted for Shoshon, more than likely. I really like the theming here, and am indeed reminded of DKC2 a bit. My only suggestion would be to possibly make the ceiling texture little hexagons instead of little squares, but this is pretty minor.
Octorock's is good, but I think it might look better without the overhang. I like PTUX (or is that the LI version of PTUX?) so points for ZC nostalgia.
And yes, mine is an old shot. I honestly don't remember if I entered it here, but I have surely posted it in the screenshot thread, or forums at some point. I don't normally toot my own horn but I'm actually still pretty proud of mine. The background animates too

Oops. Well at least a year or so passed in between. No more pyramids for another 18 months.

Not bad, but yes, the base of the pyramid should not be above the horizon
