Anyway, as has been said, experiment with ground tiles to add more detail.
Trees are nice, but try to add more so they aren't just in one spot.
The house shows imagination, but isn't tiled quite right, again experiment more here.
The more you do, the better you will get.
I also suggest you look at other peoples work just to see how they do things with houses, and ground detail.

I agree with her.
Extra tip, don't listen to players such as zephirot & protagonist. The only thing that leaves their mouths is usually negativity and on an average basis the players who do pucker up the courage to post their enjoyment on here, take it badly.
Even if what they say is then acclaimed to be criticism after, it's still usually taken badly.
However, as my oppinion. Don't ever stop posting on the forums with your levels. I can form a vague guess that you're new to developing levels, which of course we all are when we start off. But maybe you should post more than one level. Then people can make comparisons between each of them and say where to put each tiles and etc.
You obviously knew that when you pressed the 'Submit Post' button that you were going to be in a minefield.
Yes you could come out alive - there was the chance of getting good criticism (getting past the minefield with two legs still attached to your torso)
No you were going to get eaten by ego enlarged computer fanatics who post with their accounts and then have bad criticism written all over your thread or maybe they'd put it bluntly for you by saying "IT SUCKS" (get blown up.)
Plus: zephirot pretty much has "I love Norton AntiVirus" written all over his french version of Windows XP which comes to my point that - Could you take him professionally?
Which concludes my
FINAL point, when you see a post which you generally dislike because it doesn't make you feel happy about your posted creation, don't have a fit at your computers monitor and describe your anger in the most vigorous manner with your keyboard in text. Because at the end of the day you're gonna have people like that 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week. And you know, half of them don't even have no clue behind the skill of levelling and can only make the judgement that "OOO IT LOOKS PWETTY" and might even be cheeky enough to make a smart ass comment which they can't even back up with months or years of experience behind developing levels.
So enjoy levelling, and enjoy the fact your thread is getting posts and attention!
Don't put yourself down!
But put it this way, from what I see there. You won't be working on a professional server for a while.
