HylianLegend: that screen looks like you just looked through the tilelist and chose to put down random nice tiles... Like ''Ooh! That's a nice grave! I'll randomly put it down on my screen here!''
And the open corner really... destroys the shot... and the lockiness is awfull... and please, try not to use that dirt too much... it looks bad when used in large amounts next to eachother.
Giggidy: Meh.. Here, it also seems that you've just looked for nice tiles to use in the tilelist... instead of actually designing a great screen... Sorry, don't like...
Link R Us: You've got an even bigger problem... The same on like the two above, but.... worse... WHAT where you thinking? That screen looks like a complete mess... Literally... Sorry to say, but that screen is really really bad...
LiH: That, is a good screen sir... No, nothing awesome... But okay! Better than the others above... So... My vote goes here...
CC: Hmm... You thought I forgot about you? Nah...
When I said my vote went to LiH, I was lying... my vote goes to you...
Just please, do one thing for me: Change those treetop tiles... They DO NOT fit there... thanks!

I would love to see a better water edge to that fountain if that is possible. The 2x2 plants on the ground look awkward when you only have fractions of them. Perhaps something 1x1 would be more fitting for those. I like the vines, but some of the wall details I find a little confusing. Other than that it is a decent shot.
HylianLegend - 6/10
While those are great tiles, I have seen better from them on many occasions. Those small tress should not be mixed with those larger trees ever. They look like they belong to different tilesets, thus bringing some inconsistency to the screen. The cliffs would look better if they were a little more crooked. The grass and ground details are pretty good, although I am sure you can still take the details a bit farther.
ZebraStallion - 5/10
A plainish design with inconsistencies. The grass patch in the middle is too square-like, and that grass looks like it belongs to a different tileset that the grass on the rest of the screen. You did however found smaller and larger trees that would work right together. Besides the tree setup and a few ground details, the screen doesn't look that interesting.
Link R Us - 5/10
Now this is something I don't see much of. While the design doesn't show much careful planning in my eyes, the tileset also doesn't allow much room for thinking outside the squares. Despite that, I am sure there is plenty you can do to make the screen more attractive.
Giggidy - 7/10
Call me whatever you like, but I think this screen was put together well to combine the man-made with the nature that surrounds it. My votes goes to here. Great job.
LostInHyrule - 5/10
A typical graveyard screen, and not too bad. You should take the green and reddish parts of the ground and either make them less square-like, in my opinion. I don't like that bright upper edge of the ledge in the lower left. You should try something else, as it stands out much more than it should. As for the rain, white is not a good color to go with. Perhaps something more translucent looking for rain would be most fitting. Maybe a certain shade of blue or green would be best.

I'm sorry.. butthat's a really poor attempt to make the other screens look bad :3
Now, I see what you MEAN... but since he ISN'T on top, that is not a valid critique... Cause you'd be critisizing a mistake that was never made!

It's a cave. Not much to say, though it has a good shape and the greenery is a nice touch. Out of this week's class, the best bet.

Nice... vocabulary. Not really a bad shot, either. But Radien made it so that all DoR shots are good now.
*Visualizes the shot without SD3 grass.* Yeah, the ground would seem alot more bland, but you've got something going there.
- ZebraStallion -
Nostalgia. This reminds me of when the shots were only Pure, GB, or DoR (pre-SD3 grass). It's not a bad layout, and lol at the grass pond. Maybe I should've voted for this.
And btw, the passive subscreen sucks.
- Link R Us -
I almost voted for this, until I took a longer look and felt like some things didn't look right in the pic, like the floating fairy, and those borders are just... wtf, man?

More like a piece of art than a ZC submission. Yes, the graphics are great, but it doesn't appeal to me. Mainly because I miss some of the older members's work with that set, and this isn't as good. It's good for someone I've never heard of before ( ), but it just doesn't appeal to me.
- LostInHyru1e -
As you said, procrastination. Actually, the shape and layout isn't that bad, and is a good GB shot, but the rain kinda ruins it.

Giggidy: It's probably just me, but I can't really imagine good moss there, especially not with a cave palette. (I use CSet5 for floor foliage salad, obviously.)
