OK, I was bored with paying attention to every single pixel and tried something completely different.

This was done with a mouse in Photoshop in about 1hr. Although (or because) it looks very messy and rough I like it, but what about you? Would you have problems with such backgrounds in a game?
PS: No paint-overs needed, it is just a test after all.
I don't find it too attractive. I could imagine it to be very irritating when playing a game, but I would love to see the image before you applied the effects (which I guess you did).
I used one effect to make the colors blockier, otherwise the original looked the same and I don't have it anymore Thanks for the honest answer.
I would much rather play a game witha cleaner background. I like the colours and composition of this one, but it seems to messy and undefined.
i like it! kinda of monet-esque
This background would shurely make finding objects more difficult I guess.
I like it.
Thread is over a month old, Cobra never even returned to it.
Also, the one-liners here are an eye sore. If you're gonna dig up threads this old, you'd better provide some outstanding c&c.
Locking this. If Cobra wants to update his image he can pm me.
