Thanks for the kind words everyone.
Cecil, if you'd like to change the title of this thread and use this as the contest thread, that's ok by me. I'd be honored to be the first to submit a map for the bragging rights. I will update the post to include zip files of the dja files along with any art people may not have.
The only 'new' art used is a modified door that I found posted here and just modified to add a swing effect. Here it is for anyone that doesn't want to download the zip files.
There are also a couple sets of dice that I cropped and drop shadowed from a picture I found. I'll post those here to, I suppose.

There are a couple other cover effects used to shade the staircases, they are in the zip file, and one of them has been posted before by Kepli, but I included it anyway in case anyone missed it.

Where do the tables in the slippery eel come from (the square ones at ground level) ?
And thanks for using my bar I really liked how you tweaked it. |

The tables are actually from Fluid's Dungeon set. There are some items in that set that seem like they fit better with other art packs, that table being one of them.
I love your bar, by the way, I think its 100% more useful than the bar that comes with Fluid's Village art pack. Not to mention it is much easier to modify to fit into different sized barrooms.

You can change the title yourself by editing the very first post ... I don't think Cecil has rights enough to change it

OK, thread title has been changed ... some forums allow that field to be changed after posting, and others require an administrator to change it. I thought that may be the case here, but I guess not

Oh, I guess I made that door, cool what you've made from it. I like this better than using arrows...
About that table ... well DOH!
I recall having used that in several of my first maps before my timeout...

Demetrius,
Looks like you or someone beat me to it.
Stickified the thread (until someone or a consensus tells me not to) and added #1 to the subject.

Lovely maps with good detail.
About the Tipped Tankard's second floor... is that a stone well? On the ~second~ floor? Or is that a basement and I'm seeing it incorrectly?
I love that secret meeting room... I can just see a bunch of the Aurum (Eberron faction for you bad, awful people that don't have the ECS) gathered around the long table there.
In the Slippery Eel, I really like the sunlight effect at the third floor windows... it looks excellent, and I like how you did the raised platform of the stage on the ground floor.

Thanks for the compliments, Rake. Glad you liked the maps.
The Tipped Tankard has no second floor, only a basement. I tried to show that by making the stairs up from the basement get brighter as you ascend, and the stairs down to the basement darker as you descend. Perhaps the effect doesn't work as well as intended.
