Thanks for the critique, aeiowu.

The bumpiness is actually unintentional.   I originally wanted it to look smooth, clean, and stylistic, but I was using Photoshop Elements 2.0 which is completely devoid of any type of vector or pen tools.   Now that I've got CS3, I'll go back in and work on it some more.

About the gradients; is there a reason you don't like them?   How could I change it to make it look better?

That mario one is amazing. 

I know,but it gave me the good idea to have lanterns concealed in the monsters which you can pick up when they're dead. 

The short list of bands I listen to:
They Might Be Giants

I'm not the only one!  :D

Wow!  Amazing work, Anna. 

Oh my god that's genius. 

Move out of the way, Masna's idea, hello Inanimate!

Besides, it's better that you create your on colour scheme, it's a personality of sorts. You don't want to have a site with my personality. You want a site with your personality.

True.   I just created a cooler one anyways, so hah! 

Oh.   

 

The turrets ARE adorable.

I don't blame you.   

Could I please use this color scheme for my website? 

That album cover looks like Spore.

But more awesome... and steam punk.

That's okay, Inanimate.   It's surrealist. 

Also, he has the name "Hobo", so I think that should help make it more obvious. 

Oh, those!   That's a flaming garbage can. 

When it's animated I think it'll be more readable.

Hah!  I totally do that, too.  :D

Oh, the man with the hat works in the blacksmith's.

The golden bot is a statue commemorating fallen soldiers.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by glow thingies. 

Whoop whoop whoop

Someone hooked up a DS to two laptops, one of which is a touchscreen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAI7RRbIn5E&feature=related

Awesome!!  :D

Thanks Nitro Crate!   I'll definitely take your suggestions and fix it up a bit.
