so, I've been creating stuff in microsoft paintbrush. It's really easy, actually. You create a file called "palette" that has the nice and neat 16x16 square of 128 colors possible in a regular bitmap. Then, you can just use the "sample" tool to get the colors you want, get your own little "dipstick" and copy it into a new file. then create whatever you want. very fun. anyway, since I've made several recently, I figured I'd put them up. these are not my best, though I did veto one I just did today that sucked enough that I gave up on it (after making it as presentable as possible...you know, like putting an ugly child in nice clothes). Anyway, I apologize for their size. I had to save them as jpg or gif to upload them. so they lost a little quality, and the size doesn't help. Anyway, here they are (if this works)

greencross-circles

green and blue tile

blue snowflake tile

blue snowflake tile variations

Not my favs, but I like them.
