Hi. I really admire the style of dott so I tried to remake this screen from Mainiac Mansion.

It turned out like this.

please tell me what you think.
Haha I like it, looks awesome.
I would however try and use less stars that look the same :P
I really love the house.
I really like it.
Maybe you could add something to the foreground though.

Here is an updated version. I tried to make the stars have more variety and added an old gate up on the lawn.
I can't seem to see the real version though. Care to upload it somewhere else? :)
I'm guessing the missing picture is the enhanced EGA version of the Maniac Mansion (http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/maniac-mansion/screenshots/gameShotId,8517/) title screen.
Haha! No pictures there either :D
*googles*
Aaah! Looks good :)
* Reduce saturation on blues
* Make some stars smaller, they're way too huge
* Add some more trees to the left
Here is another. I tried to turn down the saturation. I also added some more trees and resized the stars.

You've created a tangent with the bottom of the moon and that bull-like tree. Seperate them a bit, so they aren't confusing to the eye.
I really like this, but it looks more like a house than the mansion in the original pic...
I was trying to get it to look more like the mansion on Day of The Tentacle which looks more like a house.
Move the moon further to the right.
I really like this background, I think you've nailed some vital elements of the DOTT style that oh-so-many people get horribly wrong.
I think you should be proud, jpp; you've come a really long way since your first posting in this forum. :)
