the "preview overlay" is something I already had made, I just changed it to the desert pallet and layed it over the finished piece. The perview took 2 minutes at the most. I usually only get half a day to work on these challenges so there is only so much "juice"
i fear you wasted more time on that preview than working on the actual piece. wich is not something "bad" perse, but when you consider that the preview image is around 75% of the actual content you have to display, you might as well consider putting more juice on your work.
It made me nostalgic for old Java Symbian games :(

compared to the rest of your gallery, the drop in quality is too evident to really conside you put as much effort as you could.
