First Despair swamp screen I've ever done! I think I'll actually try to keep this in the game somewhere...

Bet you weren't expecting a desert-with-oasis shot!

A hastily made shot to see how this new thing plays out.

Don't try and vote for it will you.

I don't think an area with so much water qualifies as a desert. :P

A hastily made shot to see how this new thing plays out.

Good enough for me. I'm not just wild about the purple water.

Good screens by everybody.

Crap! if I had known that what I call a rock wall would be ok for the mountains.......I would have made one.
As far as I can tell in the tileset I'm using there aren't any mountains.
I did import some mtn. tiles but I haven't figured out how to use them and make it look right.

Wow, this worked out a lot better than I thought! Those screens are all amazing! And they're all unique, yet all look like the original! Impressive.

It's a close call, but I think I'm voting for Joe this time. Congrats to everybody though, wonderful work!

Wait, I have to get another classic shot to use for the next competition. *Opens Zquest*

Okay, I have a classic shot ready for the next contest. Should I just post it here, or should we create a new topic?

Oh, and in case you're wondering, Sharon's shot is closest to what I was invisioning when I made that shot. Although, surprisingle, none of the five shots are much like I envisioned it. Just goes to show why I love classic. So many interpetations.

Is an oasis impossible. A desert can have a river you know. It just has to have less than a certain amount of rainfall to be a desert.

Hmm. Nice turn out. Plissken's is pretty sweet. I can see why it is winning. If I didn't enter, I would have voted for him.

Sharon's is pretty cool too. It is second in my book. I like the simplistic look of a well done pure shot. The only thing I can say is the dead GB trees kind clash with the simply look of everything else. They seem too detailed for being so small.

I like the desert, and tox_von's is okay. I think I'm the only one who kept the grass if that is not dirt in tox_von's shot.

It is entirely possible, just kind of ironic.

But anyway, pic related:

Yup, I made something dark and gloomy, with rain on top! I've been waiting for my first entry for a whole week.
