As cool as those light effects are, you should be very careful when using them.
I see light rays coming from 3 different directions plus a sun in the background. That means there are at least 4 suns in your world.

Always make sure that the fog fits to the sky. You used a dark grey fog to a clear, blue sky. That's just wrong.


I like the doodad placement and the camera angle. The water splash in the foreground is cute. ^^
That's a lot better than your first terrain, keep it up!

Im likin the second one. Gives me that peaceful feeling.
However, for display, use the crop tool in whatever program you have (I only have psp, so I use that) so that you only see the picture. A picture in the middle of huge masses of white is it a bit ugly.

Paint? Im pretty sure you can crop in paint.

Here we go:
•Screenshot the thing in WE, you know how already =P
•Open up paint, paste it in.
•Up by the tools, see the rectangle? "Select" is what it's called. Nab that, and grab the area ONLY containing the actual picture.
•Now while it's selected, press ctrl+c (copy)
•Open up a new thing in Paint. Ctrl+v (paste)
•You should now have only the actual terrain.

Hope that helps, Sun.

its pretty nice but the light from above looks bad. try angling the beams either towards the sun in the back round or to either side. the sakuras are nice tho, i love that tree.

Nuclear do you mean the one that is seen through from the beginning? well, thats only there to give it a cool effect, i wont change it, cuz i like it like that.

And Saber: When i do that, it only comes up in the size it is when i copy it, and since the program sucks, if i try to enlarge it, it becomes stretched, and ugly...

An unusual one. I like it. Way more original than all those "stairway to a temple" -pics.
