Looks nice, but a bit .. boring and empty. Guess with some doodads it looks pretty nice.

You're kidding me, right? Because I can't stop laughing after reading this.
THE DESERT IS EMPTY! It's a SKIN, not a MAP, we DON'T have doodads on TILES.

No reason to rage...
I wanted to point out that it has no variation, THEREFORE it looks empty and kinda boring.

Now you are kidding me, right ? Do you REALLY believe am dumb ?

I'm more laughing than raging, actually. ;)

So? Have you ever seen the desert? There is no variation, it all looks the same. Why add variation for something that lacks any? That doesn't make any sense. The desert IS very, very empty.

That doesn't matter.
Fact is that your post made me (and, most likely, others as well) grin and/or shake the head.

Google Search 'desert': You see, saying that there is no variation is wrong. Yes, it looks not really different, but this skin is pretty simple and could improve with different tiles, even if they have only different rills and patterns.
Not to mention that it is slightly too bright, in my opinion.

Writing in caps is like shouting. Not much more to say ( except the case you are shouting due to laughing..).

Yes you re right; actually only a third of the Sahara is sand desert. Well, I should have named it Sand Desert Tile...

Neh, I don't think it's too bright. Have you ever been there ? Your eyes need a time to adapt.
Btw there are a lot of different sand deserts color-wise. I chose this one as it seems to be the one that fits with our collective psyche (like on this or this pictures). I made a lot of tests with different settings and colors, and this seems to be the one :)

Absolutely, I can't see any variation in this desert tileset as well.

I don't see any problem with his opinion, at all. Doodads are not just trees or other big stuffs, it can be small rocks, cracks, or so. He was suggesting him about something which still can be improved, which is how a great mind should be. And you are laughing at it.

Civilized people doesn't attack other's opinion like that, or even laughing at it, or moreover, do it at public place.

Currently, it looks more like beach sands to me. :)

Well, my bad :p
Just check that !

I've seen Algerian, Tunisian and Lybian deserts, maybe that's why I think this looks like how people imagine deserts ...

Edit : well, it s just sand after all, let's not make a big debate around it :p
