Which Ocean is Better? Lots of Votes please!!!!

[Hoff]

BananaStomper and I think our oceans look better. They are pretty similar but not the same. Which ocean would work better for his map? For my ocean just try to imagine that the land was on top of it.

Or if you have any suggestion on how to make the ocean better let us know. We both dont really like light colored oceans tho...

1st Ocean:


2nd Ocean:

[Fieryo]

if you intended there to be links up there, they are not working

[Hoff]

fixed it

[kingwaffles]

They look almost identical, in fact if it weren't for some funky bumps in the Tamriel map I would say they were the same. As it is I guess the 1st? There isn't much difference...

[Hoff]

You guess the first? There is no guessing lol. Just vote which one you like better. but yeah they are very similar.

[freakshow]

are you seriously argueing over this those are litterally the same. Both look like the represent oceans niether look like real oceans though. But seriously who arguees over suck little diffrences.

[Hoff]

Someone who makes a good map and pays attention to details to make it better.

[freakshow]

right but those aren't detail, really if you hadn't told me they were diffrent I wouldn't have known. Just go with whats easier here.

[Banana Stomper]

haha, told you hoff!

[kingwaffles]

By I guess the 1st, I meant I guess I'll choose the first. And I agree with freakshow they are both good looking oceans, almost identical just use whichever one is less hassle.

[Banana Stomper]

they pretty much are the same, the second is just the first with another layer over top that is transluscent. hoff says that the layer over top looks like tidal waves all over the place. I think it just makes it look less patterny. Gives it some pizazz

[Banana Stomper]

hoff just wants to post, he doesn't care what about.

[Hoff]

maybe I would like it if you made it a little bit more translucent

[HighBorn]

1st one

[Red Army]

Um... The first ocean drowned the continent? (I know it's lame)

I'm too cross eyed from looking at the computer screen to tell the difference.

[stevesparty]

Is this a joke?

[HighBorn]

lol.... could be... but maybe not...

[Banana Stomper]

hoff is totally serious, but out of his mind.

[rocksolid]

I like the first ocean, principally because it references a greater awareness of the perils of climate change, melting ice caps, and consequent raised sea levels.

No, seriously, I like the first one better.

[Acetone]

I like the first one, but then there is nothing to conquer, and yes I know its lame.

[Hoff]

Is anyone else going to make the same joke? haha

[UTGreen]

Are people serious? The oceans aren't really the same at all, except that they both use blue. Granted, I don't think that it would make a large impact on whether or not I played the map or not, but I'm glad someone's taking the time to contemplate the aesthetic differences.

Personally, I like Ocean 2 much better. Ocean 1 looks like some funky Windows 3.1 wallpaper pattern and I think smoothing it out in Ocean 2 looks a little bit better. Also, you should put Ocean 1 underneath the continent, not on top of it (rim shot) Am I right folks or am I right?

[rocksolid]

Is anyone else going to make the same joke? haha

I guess so ^^^

[thegrimsleeper]

Try selecting a small (say 15%) portion of either ocean (I like the 2nd one, btw) and then stretching it to the full size of the image. That'll help get rid of the pattern aspect.

[Banana Stomper]

I win.
