the fact that their art i l33t makes them feel seperior

The fact that some people dont want to spend time on their art

*hoping poop won't appear*

I am bothering you? I'm just frustrated of the fact that you dont seem to get the point of critics... Allready from the beginning it seemed like you knew all that was "wrong" with your pic.

- There's no good detail

- Too much textured stuff used

- No light

- Wrong prespective

- Etc.

Why didnt you just fix those things before posting then?  

So there's enough that can be better on this BG... so please help me.
Feel free to add or remove things on this image but I cannot ensure that your edit ends up in a game

What it seems to me that you are saying here is: "There is no need to crit this, since i already know what is wrong with it! But please make me a better version of it, but if i dont like your paintover, i wont steal it and use it in my game!"

Again, i'm sorry if i seem harsh, but i'm just tired and frustrated! Smacking someone in the head really hard would help me...

The graphics look great and the story is cool!   My only problem is the fact that you made it in german... *hoping you will get a translater*

I wont say anything since you obviously are not interrested in c&c, even though you posted in the CL!

Good luck with your game!

I like it! I was abit worried when reading your thread there, but i got it about when i read UFO
Here's what i got from it anyhoo



And btw: Blasting BBB is not any constructive! Now go blast this www.pokemon.com

Filters just make everything look and 'feel' cheap. It's obivious that your trying to improve and I think you can if you listen a little better.

This fella has a great point! Listen to what people say, and look at the different paintover people have done for you. And then try to improve it again!

EDIT:

...instead of yelling at the kid and trying to prove that...

The kid? I'm just as old as he is

My God Vict0r, I didn't remember you as an E-thug. Seriously, instead of yelling at the kid and trying to prove that your right in 3 posts, just help him.

Heh Sorry if i was a bit harsh, but after reading this thread before posting it seemed like corey really wasnt keen on doing any work himself exept the first pic.

Practice makes perfect.

One of my points! You dont get any practise from asking people to do things for you

And again, sorry if i seem a bit harsh, but i'm just trying to help you

Ha! Thats great buloght!

Heh I meant the bricks on the small path up to the house.

and I dont care about the patern, you didnt have to show me, like I didnt noticed

Well, if you noticed, you should see that it doesn't look right! If you want to make games people want to play, you should make an effort with the art!

lol how ironic... let me tell you why: Those things arent premade. I made them all myself, I used a turorial a friend of mine made. your right about the sidewalk thought, that one comes from paintshop pro.

When you say that you made them yourself, you mean that you took a picture of some stones and put them side by side on the paintover khrismuc so kindly made so you could understand one of the things that were wrong with your background. It is oh, so clear that this is a picture of some rocks put side by side! And if you still say that you made them using a tutorial, why dont you post the link to this precious tutorial?

EDIT:
Just made this to show everyone what i mean. Same colour on same rocks. See a pattern here? And the wall thingy is the exact thing on each side

I can see your point, but what i meant (it didnt come out that clear) was to make him sure that he is really happy with "his" edit. He should modify it until he is happy with it. Ask himself if this is how he really wants it, and if he would want it to be better if he had the opportunity. And hopefully, he wants it to be his work of art, not just someone elses paintover. For example, the fence. Perhaps add reflection from the lamp or something like that.

And get rid of the stone texture, even plain grey would look MUCH better than those obviously tiled, non-proportional, non-tilted stones.

Even if it takes half an hour more to make it. You shouldnt take shortcuts if you want the outcome to be good.

to Sektor 13:
Erm...I dont really know what you mean, as far as I can see all textures match ok. oh well even if they don't I'm ok with it.

to vict0r:
I know but I don't care much and I dunno how to fix it anyway.

DonB:
thnx, yeah it's already much better then exspected to get when i started and I like it the way it is now.
Maybe some small changes but thats it.

It doesn't really seem like you are interrested in improving your background unless people do it for you.Ã,  As far as i can see, the only thing you did yourself so far is taking khrismucs edit, spent five minutes making a crooked fence, and adding some premade textures and filters. One can clearly see that the brick texture isn't made by you. Same goes for the sidewalk and thingys on the side of the house.

My tip: Spend more than 10 minutes modifying your bg.

What sektor said, and the light shouldnt affect the window the way it do now. Assuming the glass pane is going inwards, and the light isnt sticking too much out, the light wouldnt hit the glass like that.

Had the same bug as wretched

Maybe i'm just slow...

Spoiler

I got the vine, and tried to follow this last hint. I tried to use the vine with the branch, the tree and all the soldiers. What should i do?

Looks great! One problem tho, that seems to happend to alot of Wallpapers. The "Game Quest" orwhatever really ruins the image imo. But looks great

I think what rocier ment was to go commercial.

Oh oh oh!! Pick me, pick me!!  ....upper right corner....

Oh my! Thats just amazing
