    @ Barfly, Chopper, morrillo, and emcee:

    It's always much appreciated! I was slightly concerned that the theme might be a little too strange for mass consumption; I'm relieved to hear it went over alright.




    @ morrillo:

    Thank you for the video sir. I will be sure to post it on the front page.

    Just for the record; I am completely sober.

    Wow, You outdid yourself with this, the line, the style in the visuals, very artistic, everything is perfectly placed. The shroom-cave part is probably the coolest looking scenery ever implemented in a track (all the track is but the cave in particular), also the ending is very nice.
    Amazing job.

    Nice track it looks pretty and this one seems to be all about the "funs" and this looks very good, my favourite part was the end atmosphere and crystals and stuff it look pretty good.


    It's hard to say andthing bad about it or give any improvements about it because this is an all round fun track. I have one (potential) little complaint or just something to say, at the start i wasn't too sure about the bright yellowy greeny colouring as the shadows it didn't look right to me and didn't fit too well maybe slightly darker or cyan could have been better?

    One other thing maybe it's me but first off the DL is a bit confusing to see in some places so spread things out a bit more or show where the DL is.

    DL-4.75
    Scenary-4.75
    Atmosphere-4.5
    Idea-5(thats a first for me!)
    Overall-4.75

    @ stiggy:

    That's a great compliment, thank you.



    @ Little:

    I'm glad you liked it, and thanks for the feedback. Next time you find yourself roaming around a library grab a book on color theory. There are all kinds of things in there you may not have considered. You probably won't care for everything presented, but you'd likely find it a very useful tool.

    Really enjoyed Painted. The line didn't really bother me, I had fun just "riding" through looking at stuff. Great work!

    This is also going to be hard for me to let go of, i'll be sure for next time to try not mention anything to do with "different" colour choices.

    @ Kush, Noob, Rude:

    I'm glad you had some fun with it, thank you all.



    @ Little:

    I didn't mean for my comment to be viewed as a rebuttal or slight in any way. If it was interpreted as such, I apologize. Looking at your posts, you seem to have a genuine interest in the way color works and likely composition as well. There is a whole batch of reading that can be done on the topic that removes much of the mystery as to why some things work and others do not. Up through my late teens, though I could see it was clearly the case, I couldn't understand exactly why a crappy building could be made to look cool, while a surefire thing like a snowy mountain-shot could be made to look like garbage. There is a flexible umbrella of rules that all good arrangements, pictures, paintings, sculpture, etc. generally fall under. If you have an interest in these things, it's fascinating and useful reading. I know from experience that rather than point a person in a direction to further an interest in these things, most folks will simply tell you that you can't make money doing it. This was the only purpose of my comment.
