I will! Just want to make sure no interference gets in the way and blocks a tile too long; also I'd like to clear (a little) a backlog of unfinished stuff which has been dragging me back for a while, before beginning new stuff! ;)

Can't see your pictures :(

can see everything else, can you put them on some other site? :(

Thanks a lot. I didn't see it previously, I'll update it, thanks again.

EDIT:

I updated a few parts, I can update it again later on depending on LuckyF and Jaker's tiles. I think LuckyF changed his floor to match mine but I can match his as well.

He does look like E.T :) Can't wait to see the next update :)

PS; You have a wrong brown pixel in the lowest tetris piece, and a wrong gray in E.T.

What colors do you have in mind? Yellow/green/blue like the stones at the shore of the lake?

It's not true for the updated version. The queen is very visible at the moment. Lighter colors wouldn't really give the idea of a "cave".

Hmm the main pic isn't updated for some time so in case anyone wonders where we are at the moment;

tiles 29, 33, 41, 45, 48, 53, 72, 84 are updated.

Hmm there must be something wrong.. When I look at the first page I see LuckyF's 4 tiles 29, 45, 72, 84, my tile 53 all missing the latest updates. Plus my new one (drD) and your miner and tetris tiles.

To be precise;

Tile 29 was updated with some highlights and shadows etc.
Tile 45 had its background colors completely changed.
Tile 72 the tips of the tentacles of a3um's monster was added.
Tile 84 The tank was recolored to have some more volume.

My tile 53 was updated with some color changes + foot of the alien queen and a guy/gal with flamethrower.

Is it me who can't see these updated?

Sure, here's the stuff that should be fixed;

11- Stratto - WIP (blue)
23-Snader - WIP (blue)
26-Numberplay - WIP (blue)
30-antymattar - WIP (blue)
61-JC Denton - complete (red)
64-a3um - complete (red)

(In)Activity report (only over 2 weeks):

30-antymattar - 69 days (latest update 04.11.2010 he may be thinking he's done, yet he got comments otherwise)
26-Numberplay - 66 days (latest update 07.11.2010)
23-Snader - 60 days (latest update 13.11.2010)
11-Stratto - 55 days (latest update 18.11.2010 computer crash)
44-KevinK - 43 days (latest update 30.11.2010)
3-Mr Blu - 20 days (latest update 23.12.2010)

Nice job rephisto. I'lll add your WIP in next main image update.

@gecimen, thanks for double checking the reservation list. I'll send PMs to the inactives except for Kevink because we removed his tile because we liked what Peach (58) did instead...we'll give him extra time. I don't know what to do about snader :/

This IS a collab that goes beyond the art itself so we'll add your rule.
In the rules we did allow for them:

Special Rules
• Special rule(s) may be added to accommodate whatever loophole y'alls manage to find and exploit.

But I would reword it a bit:

• You must post a WIP tile within 30 days of reserving a tile. Thereafter, every WIP post buys you a 30 day extension before you lose your tile reservation.

Fair enough. Before posting on page 1.
This tiles removed?
26-Numberplay - 66 days (latest update 07.11.2010)

If he calls it done, we must deal and accept it. Such is the way of collabs :|
30-antymattar - 69 days (latest update 04.11.2010 he may be thinking he's done, yet he got comments otherwise)

This tile we leave (under 30 days)
3-Mr Blu - 20 days (latest update 23.12.2010)

Yellow color numbers (special circumstances)
23-Snader - 60 days (latest update 13.11.2010)
11-Stratto - 55 days (latest update 18.11.2010 computer crash)
44-KevinK - 43 days (latest update 30.11.2010)

Here's the overview of the inactives so far:

*Stratto's #11: He said he would completely redesign the tile, yet then he said his computer crashed and he can't work at the moment. Here's his latest WIP:


*Antymattar's #30, here's his latest WIP:


Yet this entry breaks 3 different rules.
1-It doesn't blend into its neighbour's WIP that was posted before him. (Snader's number #30, see below). If we accept this tile as is, it'll be unfair to Snader. I'm not talking about the tile quality here.


2- Its perspective and scale are debatable. Doesn't look ISO at all. This is also a viable reason for rejection.
3- It's a tile with no completed neighbours, much later than the starting tiles were done. See your reply below:

Yet, I guess he's not gonna come back to redo the tile, as later on he said he wanted another tile etc. I think we should leave his reservation for a bit more and see if he comes back after one of his neighbours is done.

*Numberplay's #26, I think we should remove his reservation as I PMd him multiple times and got no answer. He probably doesn't visit PJ anymore. Also it seems we've got Reo, a master pixeller here to claim the tile ^^

22 is you neighbour, so, if you pick #15 me or someone else can fill in between.

antymattar is active on PJ, let's keep his reservation until one or more of his neighbours is done and ask him to blend into them.

That's a great looking beehive.

You might add a few more bees on the right side maybe. Great tile all in all.

Here's the latest update along with this.
@a3um; do you think there's something slightly wrong in the top corner?

Its cool stratto, just keep us posted :)

If you mean 18 the participant (Top) says it's finished. The orange thing on the top is shadow over lava. Yes that area could be more detailed but well it's up to the owner of the tile. You can continue that shadowy area more detailed in your tile and if Top comes back he can look into it himself.

Edit: looking at your previous WIP you can continue the same concept only with changing the left bunker into water.

very heavy Wip.
I decided to redo the whole thing, the volcano is still very basic, for the exception of a few details I've already added.
I have a main idea of what I'm aiming for, but I'm still having trouble making it blend with tile 18.
the yellow around the volcano is actually supposed to be sand, not lava, but I think I'm failing at making it clear right now, and I have no idea on how to make it sandier.
ignore all the stray pixels and the little shroom on top

@Jalonso; it's more than OK to remove my main pics, it takes too much space in the discussion forum. I don't want to disturb you with every little thing so if it's ok I'll post updates here and you can delete it after you post the real update.

@Stratto; It does look like sand. The volcano seems pretty cool at the moment. Blending with tile 18 won't be a problem if you continue that smoke. It will work as a blender.

@KevinK; your tile seems cool in terms of blending. Now you can include some action in that big empty space. You can destroy the wall a bit. As for ideas, one is obviously putting a monster of sorts. Game references are not uncommon. Another might be an oasis and camel riders around it... and so on..

Great stuff going on guys and gals. Keep it up :)

97 please.

@Gecimen - Nah, it's ok;) Though, if I'll find a better idea, I'll make an update.

@Jalonso, thanks(:

38 please
