Some screenshots of my first level that I put effort into:

I would argue that, simply from an architectural viewpoint, the concurrent squares aren't terribly interesting. Furthermore, I fail to see how the massive red "x" in the center adds anything from a texture standpoint.

The moral of this story: avoid Geocities like the plague.

Now that the screenies ARE up, i must say that it looks.. not too interesting.. i don't know why, maybe better lighting would do the trick (blue is good for a specific area, not an entire level). And use some more custom textures. Old ones are just boring, everybody fought in these environments before already.

Yes. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif] That's what I thought. I am looking for custom textures. The JO ones were there so something will be seen.

1. What S51 said.

2. Your images are not working because Geocities does not allow external linking of images. Either rename your images to TXT from JPG, or use the Editor's Corner.

Your browser prolly don't provide the "page viewed from" info to geocities.

If geocities is asked for an image file, and the "page viewed from" is not on their server, they refuse to return it.

Your browser might purposefully omit that information for privacy conserns.

Mine does not, so I am stuck seeing the standard mozilla icon... a page icon with a green circle, a blue square, and a purple triangle on it... ripped.

They shouldn't be working for you, because Geocities doesn't allow external linking.

Maybe you got lucky. If you copy and pasted the image address, it will work on the page because it's reading from your cache.
