the pile itself looks great! i just wish they didnt shade it with blue and put it on a blue background. there are lots of colors salt comes in! blue isnt one of 'em. why not pink? i like pink. pink salt is a very well-known thing.

@LilLegendary you’re right! I think that would help! Blue makes me think of snow.

I'd like to make a horrible joke.

But I won't.

Because I enjoy being on this site.

If ya now you know.

I do prefer the triangular look a lil more but, this will grow on me. It's no Roundhorn Remake after all. still salty about that.

I think the new gravel doesn't look like gravel at all, but I also don't care what the gravel looks like in the first place so

Agree new art looks worst.
Pile shape does not looks like pile of dry tiny particles.
And background too busy

I think the issue with the salt and the gravel specifically is that they look too soft, whereas they should probably look more coarse.

They could benefit from maybe some darker and lighter spots like the original gravel had or some more aggressive lines to make them look less soft... but also it's not going to ruin my day if the staff had more important things to do than fix this.

[quote name="Arsea" date="2023-07-11 17:56:33" ] yeah, I love the new art style but the shape and color makes them look much more like ash and snow than gravel and salt. sand looks great though, congrats to sand enjoyers (also not gonna lie, I got kind of attached to the gravel after the april fool's event. someone tell me I'm not the only one) [/quote] YEAH this is basically my opinion on it [quote name="creosote" date="2023-07-11 18:07:29" ] i totally agree with you, i liked the old art so much more T_T i know it's like.. the biggest nothingburger of all time [/quote] although this is also true haha (the discussion thread got crazy big, although I guess a lot of that was people not noticing the difference because it hadn't updated for them yet) oh I do like the new backgrounds now though, they're very eye-catching and pleasing :)

I miss the old gravel. Sand looks pretty good now. Salt is... not salt. Not snow, either. I'm not sure what it reads as to me. Ashes, maybe?

i think the reason they look so not-rough is because the texturing is in the shading, and also because that is a veritable MOUNTAIN of gravel so you wouldn't see the individual pieces as much
