SMW Hack : Bowser Strikes Back - NEW Video

Hey guys!
Some of you may have heard of hack, "Bowser Strikes Back" Unfortunately, demo one isn't ready yet, but I have a full video of the most recent level that I made. It's called "Yoshi's Lake".

Video

What do you think?
I'm downloading your video now, but it's taking painstakingly long to download. (I don't have a premium account on Rapidshare, but I don't care about that.) I wonder why you couldn't upload this onto YouTube or anything?
I'm currently taking an indefinitely long break from ROM hacking to play World of Warcraft again. Anyone may check out my user bio for more information on what I'm planning for Rainbow Legends: S********'s Adventure.
Yeah...sorry about the wait, but it takes ridiculously long to upload to Youtube, and I didn't want to have to go through all that. It took me long enough just to try and make the video. So again, sorry about the wait.
I just saw your video, and I have the following to say about your level:

Graphics: Not too shabby if I do say so myself, though you might want to look into some different graphics for those pushable crates if they're not as sloped as they look.

Level Design: Very solid design, though have you looked into those NPC hacks that are being featured here in SMW Central (including the v3.0 ones that are being featured for C3)? I think that you could use one of those (or whatever hack allows you to place readable signs) for the Yoshi's speech instead of relying on a screen change to activate the speech.

Overworld: Looks nice.

Video: Now the long download was a real pain, and would probably turn off some potential people who would want to check out your hack, which is a shame since it doesn't look half bad.

Thanks for the review.

I used those graphics for the crate, because I'm trying to make my hack imitate the same graphics style as Yoshi's Island, but after thinking about it for a while, I think I see why it needs to be changed.

Yeah...I would've used one of those NPC sprites, except that if I talked to Yoshi, then the Layer 3 Clouds would have disappeared, so that's why I had to make Mario go to another level.

Yeah...I know, I just didn't want to have to upload to Youtube becuase that would take way too long. (I just hope it doesn't turn people away from this thread.)
