Making the Tiles for My Game

I decided that considering my game is based on a cowboy theme that I should try and make a tile set of my own that has a sort of cowboy or desert theme to it. I felt the easiest way around this was to edit an existing tile set as I liked the shape and design of them already, just as they were based on grass they did not suit in my levels. To edit them I opened up each individual section of the tile and clicked the button "edit frame" this opened you up to Stencylworks own imaging software "Pencyl", I then experimented around with a variety of yellows and different shades until I found a style that I was happy with. I then saved the codes for each individual colour and added them to the rest of the tiles to complete my desert theme.
