I voted for EyesUnclouded and Candacis because both were interesting, not too overdone and really felt alive/like farms. (Yeah, I live in a rural area where there were farms in drought, so it was cool seeing the other side of farming, the painful and tragic side. It was a great idea and translated very well.)
I don't know, a lot of them felt too over-done with too many details. I mean, details are nice, but overloading a map with them makes for too much distraction. A nice balance helps. Also, a few of the overlays were a bit too much too. You want to add subtlety, not overblow it. They hid the map too much to make things out clearly. Sadly, so, since under those overlays could have been some really nice maps.
Oh, and a shout-out to Jomar. You've really come so far with your mapping that if I hadn't seen your name over it I wouldn't have picked it as yours. Great job, dude! I'm so proud of ya. ^.^)b

All right, I don't care anymore if people will dislike me but some comments do really, but really NOT care about the works of many parallax mappers made here.
It's really not about me because I know that my map my not be enough accurate for this contest (I mean a farm in a cave?) but more generally.
First : you're map, I think I can't play on it.
Why do you are about this ? This is not the purpose of this contest otherwise next time ASK demo instead of screenshot contest.
Also, before saying that DID you putted those damn 35 maps into on editor ?
If you don't understand me then maybe you just don't know about parallax at all or even Rpg maker.
Parallaw a map mean that we have to care about the passability meanning that we need a 32x32 square to move around.
Second : you're map is too cluttered, too detailed.
The only map that has been a bit overbroad (in my taste) in ShinMegamix map.
But so what ? That mean that guy tried his best to do what he could and same for other mappers.
All you could said that some mappers maybe didn't think enough of their design but seriously most of them did.
This contest is about how to use Celianna tilesets on a farm theme with the help of RTP.
Then why do I feel that comments here didn't care at all ? I hope people remember the rules that we all had to apply.
I mean do people did really notice how many maps did really tried to use (as many as they could) Celianna work ?
All these comments just made think that our efforts were a waste.
To all parallax mappers and other tilesets mapper (maybe?)
I know that usually english makers avoid parallax and it really surpised me to see many people doing it.
Thank you for what you did, I saw what you tried to do and I know some of you did for the first time their (parallax) map.

Preeeetty much, yeah. Frankly, there were cases of too little, but a lot of the nicer maps just had too much going on, imo.

Wow, Chaos17, you don't have to be so upset. All anyone was saying is that they used those standards as ways to narrow down the list to vote because everyone's maps were so awesome. There had to be some way to eliminate choices or else no one's maps would be voted on at all. No one was saying that those people who were eliminated had ugly maps or that they didn't follow the rules or something.

I think Madagascar and Candacis' maps are cool. At this rate Candacis is probably gonna win, good job everyone!

I had a hard time picking out 2 maps as well, since there are so many I like
Ended up voting on Candacis and Dalph though (Decided to pick my fav from both parallaxing and Tileset mapping I guess )

No, why you voted me man? I didn't voted yours...I had a hard time picking out 2 maps as well, since there are so many I like

To be honest I was rather undecided between yours (which is pretty cool and has a very nice atmosphere) and mlogan's one, but ended up choosing her for the originality.
Anyway, you're a cool fellow Dark.

Cast my votes. I decided on sheer originality rather than how 'farmy' the maps looked, so I voted for Chaos and Vox.

Haha, that doesn't matter man! You should vote on the one that you feel is your favourite and not because someone is voting for you imo ^^No, why you voted me man? I didn't voted yours...

Thanks for the kind words about my map
, and yes there were a lot of nice entries which made it very difficult to make a final decision. I had a hard time with Luchino's map as well since I really, really do love it.Oh and thanks a lot man
! You're a really cool fellow yourself!

I have a bad tendency of nulling my vote and peaking at the votes but I wanted to see how everyone was doing. Forgive me
These maps are fantastic though. Somehow I'm pulled into dalph's map more then anything. There is some vivid detail in there and if I'm correct it wasn't parallax at all
So if I was voting that map would have my vote for sure.

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most.
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design...
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
