Shouldn't the stop sign be blue?

Paying homage to a group of old friends I knew way back in 2007 in a level pack. Not SMFE, a different site I rarely talk about.

You're doing a forest level which looks pretty nice including the design and placements so far...

Adding more tilesets doesn't make a level look better.

I didn't make it just for tilesets, I never think tilesets help on making good levels anyway.
Edit: I removed the gray blocks, and moved the fire around.

I can't see the level behind the cluster of custom graphics tbh. Why ARE there pillars and lamps coming from the clouds?

I could say the same thing about Robotics;Shisetsu.

To be completely honest, bud, I thought the pillars looked just fine.

I didn't think they looked bad either. The lava was the only thing that looked weird and unfitting, everything else looked fine.
First everyone overused custom graphics and now they're frowned upon??? I honestly don't understand the big deal lol. As long as something doesn't look bad and unfitting, the use of custom graphics shouldn't be an issue.

Idk but i totally don't agree with the overused CGFX rule. It depends how you use it.

Except that since MAGLX2, with increased exposure to the rest of the internet, people here are waking up to the fact that certain design standards that has been entrenched in this community since 2011-2012 are being phased out because oversaturation of levels released that pride "aesthetic" over gameplay. People here now want levels that play well and have a gimmick (typically those that require LunaLUA) to boot. The people who posted screenshots that saturate BGOs and mix tilesets are more or less holdouts of an older standard and are rightfully criticized because those levels tend to be boring when stripped away of the decor.

Levels that have a lot of custom graphics can still be fun and have good gameplay. Yes I understand that gameplay is the most important factor of a level, but scenery is also important. When I'm playing a level, I want not only good gameplay but good scenery as well. A level can have pretty good gameplay, but if it looks terrible, I definitely won't enjoy it as much. I understand that there is such thing as overusing custom graphics and that mixing certain tilesets doesn't look appealing, but levels shouldn't be frowned upon just because they use a lot of custom graphics. As long as it looks and plays good, who cares? Custom graphics are there for a reason.
