    You guys should lower the bar for feature tracks TBH and encourage other players to try and achieve it. seems like the same old people are getting featured

    the same old people work harder.

    BowlOfFire it's a visually appealing style, kind of reminds me of crypts work but has some unique qualities. try spending twice as long on the next one and sharpen things up a bit, sketching is fine but it seems you've got more potential. if you step it up on the next big project i'm sure a feature is on the cards.

    I loved the sketchy style, there's not enough people doing there own thing in the game. The detail is my favorite ive seen in a bit, especially the clouds, but for me the track was just too short. I pesonally wouldn't be against featuring it. BowlOfFire keep it up man

    i dont see why we're choosing not to showcase a track thats very unique and breaks the mold a little bit

    I don't see what is unique about this track at all. It's a rather flat track with no real depth, that only contains a few jumps and a rail. As for the detail, I'd tell you guys to look at Gongo999 and MTB inc. by TFM if you want to see the attempted style done in a more calculated manner. I'm not saying it doesn't have promise, but if we feature people they draw a slightly above average track, then they'll never try to get any better and overall lowers the standard.

    when a track like this is featured:
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/267199-labyrinthine
    and a track like this is too;
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/236444-enciklopedia-read-desc
    I don't see why something with a far larger artistic focus isn't.

    Tracks are featured for different appealing things, and are therefore not comparable with one another. Its also a matter of subjective appeal to each individual feat mod.

    if that's enough reasoning to feature a track then i'm surprised more tracks aren't featured

    I see what you are saying. It being short was why I thought it wouldn't get featured. The whole premise behind the track was for it to be detailed and have a smooth ride, unlike a lot of the other nature scenes. Even at 1451kb this meant the track only takes about 10 seconds to finish. Had I made it a rough ride it would have been more like 30. I added the half pipe to jazz things up a bit.

    Im not in charge of featuring tracks, this is my own opinion, and I hold tracks to higher standards when considering featuring. Yes I don't believe either of those tracks should be featured for their detail. However, one is not meant to be enjoyed for its detail, and the other has some unique parts to it (personally the mountain actually impressed me). I'm not speaking with the standards of the feature mods, I never said I agreed with all of their decisions.
