You seriously need to shut the **** up.

Pretty sure I know what it means,unless you think of its meaning different than I? But if it'll make you feel happier about yourself I'll say "bag."
Wow you guys sure like to bag [on] people['s artwork].

Edit: also i'm not going to get into a big war on what words mean. If you obviously know what I meant, then leave it as it. troll in my book, means exactly the same as a flamer.
WHICH IN MY BOOK MEANS, talk trash on and or off topic.

Oh, if you squint u can see a dragon in the crown of the tree.
Personally you shouldn't be using photoshop for graphics for a game like graal for when you're doing photoshop work you shouldn't be using it for parts of a gmap or tileset that usually should be simple and easy on the eyes, My comment earlier when I looked at it I saw either two of the things.

Brussels Sprouts or a giant head of lettuce.

The effect you used for leafing the tree is very grotesque and unappealing. For things such as trees stick to pixeling it by hand.

A big example where this applies, GK. GK's trees are very hideous and that alone is self explanatory., Some games can pull off high details in their landscapes such as Maplestory because they have the artists and the artistic ability. You however have small potential, just not through photoshop.

All I have been in this thread is a cynical ***hole. I vomited in my mouth when I saw this tree, and as a critic, I told him just that. PS effects look like trash here, and I made sure I let him know that's what I thought.

It kind of looks like a deformed mystical egg, but as Fulgore said I agree that you should stick to pixeling by hand ( if for graal that is )
overall it needs some leaves to be defined and trees shouldn't be so circular unless it's a very large neatly trimmed tree..?
but i doubt it

good luck in the future

edit: @ kia key point being, i don't think people find it appreciative when they ask people to critique their work to be *******s about it.
"all i have been in this thread is a cynical *******" i think troll covers "*******". anyways done posting on this forum. goodluck with your tree !

"Please don't feed the troll" covers it up quite nicely for you frozen. But he doesn't appear to be trolling the thread, more or so trolling you now, Have fun being the target.

I don't agree of him being a troll, I agree he is trolling you. No more to it but whatever floats your boat.

you can't be a troll without trolling
you can't be a thinker without thinking
you can't be a kicker without kicking
you can't be an eater without eating

trolling comes from troll.
but whatever floats your boat right ?

sorry, just had to comment. was funny to me XD

Looks like it would work better as a rock to me. Maybe put some sort of rope or banner on it, could be the entrance to a temple or something.
