I made this like 10 months ago. It was my very first attempt to create a pixel-art piece, actually. It's full of cheats like transparencies for the shadow of the house and multiple-pixel-brushes for the sand, but that was only because I didn't really know what "shading" is, back then... Now I do and I try to improve my stuff by not cheating anymore. I'm not sure if this piece is going to be approved by the administrators due to the reasons I mentioned above, but I decidet to submit it anyway.

Its increadibly amazing for being your first pixel art! Great job!
Thank you all once again for commenting on my works. And also for adding my stuff to your favorites!
PixEd, you're absolutely right. Should I decide to redo it, I'll probably cut the colors in half.
Metaru, I'm not sure I understood what you meant. Yes, the sand is "shaded" with multi-pixel brush. I know that's wrong now, but by the time I was working on this piece, I had absolutely no idea which one is the proper way to shade things in Pixel Art...
Ameki, the snail is indeed clacking his eyes together, as Rynen10K said. It's part of one SpongeBob episode's plot. The one where he's attacked by a flock of jellyfishes and uses Gary to hypnotize them so he can get away...
you could call me jealous if you wish, but knowing that the sand is shaded in a "wrong/dirty" way and not doing anything about it... i would be more credible. because i see veryone was trapped by the animation of the jellyfishes.
Yes, the main reason for this high color count is the transparency. As I said in the description, there could have been lesser colors if I knew how to "shade" back then...
But still, thank you all very much for your encouraging comments and suggestions! Your feedback is highly appreciated!
