There are lots of new tiles in here. Most are not very good. They are in sets and I found only 6 or 8 of them of any appeal to me. There are 24 tiles in each bmp, with 14 separate bmps in the download.

They range from crazy stuff to stone/marble and wooden floors. There is a couple of wooden ones I’d like to try but I saw only a few that had the same slate approach to their orientation that the original Dink tiles have (wood floors and pavement) and it’s this diagonal orientation which works well in creating DMODs. I find the tiles that have purely vertical and horizontal lines weird.

Too many of them are pastel colours with little sense of definition. But it you are looking for tiles and don’t won’t to make your own, try these you might find something you like.

A few useful tiles, many that aren’t. I think the potential author will have to re-edit the ones they want to use which detracts enormously from the ease of use of such a file. Also the instructions on replacing tile sets could have been a bit more explicit as in – rename a set as say T39.bmp to replace the standard skeleton_b tiles…
