Hmmmm. A whole bunch of BMPs. Very nice, yes. Let's see, yes there are 15 graphics here, each coming with the suitable script to add to the Dink INI. Very nice, yes. However, there are bad points to this little collection, and the good points are also pretty cool.

Strengths
---------

Well, to start off with there are 15 graphics here. Each one that comes with its own little script lines to add to the Dink INI in order to get them working. VERY helpful indeed. The graphics are very well done, even though there are only 15 of them. Some of the graphics are variations of the others, but these variations can be spotted easily, and, yes, they are very good variations. I felt that it is a small package when zipped up, and can been downloaded quickly, which is very good for those with modems (like myself...) Here's the goods about what I think about each little graphic...

Bathtub - Well, looks like a bathtub, and very much like one. Well done.
Bed1 - A cute bed, looks like a kiddies one
Bed2 - Looks more "grown up" for some reason...
Bed3 - Looks even more like a kiddies bed than bed1
Bookshelf - Looks just like I imagine a bookshelf to look like
Crack1 - Looks like a crack in the cold ice
Crack2 - Looks like ANOTHER crack in the cold ice
Crack3 - Looks like ANOTHER crack in the cold ice
Crack4 - Looks like ANOTHER crack in the cold ice
Crack5 - Looks like ANOTHER crack in the cold ice
Dresser - Looks like a dresser, and very well done.
Fridge - Looks like one of those high tech fridges. Like the one Bill Gates has...
Snow1,2,3 - These all look like the light that you would see if you were using the lantern effect

Weaknesses
---------

The variations on the same graphics are very bad. I think just one graphic would be good. No variations are needed. The fridge actually LOOKS as if it has been drawn, and on a crappy program like paint. Dink graphics shouldn't look like this. Very bad yes. I think all the scripts should be in one txt file, for ease of use, and to make the download size EVEN smaller. There is lots of visibale "grain" on the bathtub, which is very bad, naughty naughty...

Overall
---------

A cute little BMP set, with variations on some graphics it provides, which is clearly not needed. Basically provides some extra graphics to add to your game. Lots of people ALWAYS want new graphics, so I guess you can find a few of these, long wanted ones such as a dresser and bathtub, in this little collection. Well done here, I give it an 8.6

Total - 8.6
Grade B
