Better. However, I still see stretched sections. You can still make your ship look this way, you just have to find the right sections to do it with. Just think of sections like an image: You can always go smaller, but never make it larger. If you stick to that rule, you should be fine.
Also, with your color scheme, you can just stick to monotone right now. Genetally, if you can master the shades of gray, you can shift over to color without much problem.
One final tip, if you haven't done so already, look at the Holy Ship! thread, and in the allied data archives in the metagame. You shouldn't try to mimic those styles, but you should look at what they did, and see how they did it, to improve your own ships. Don't worry, if you keep on trying, you'll be able to put out at least a decent ship.

It's not my fault I can't take your post seriously.
It's a definite improvement in your skill, though has a ways to go before I'd call it good.
Frankly, the easiest thing for you to do is just lurk a bit, look around at some of the threads in this section, especially the Holy Ship thread. Anna's Workshop is also a good place to get a sense of what is and is not good.
Keep at it.

I’m pretty sure you maximized your ship maker, because the squares in the background are rectangular. Maybe that's why the sections look stretched. Just run your ship maker in windowed mode.Link wrote:actually i didn't stretch any of it this time, its all normal size
I'm going to look at that stuff

Here, use this DL.
http://individual.utoronto.ca/Squishy/S ... sueSWA.rar
It has the most SWA sections, which are far superior to the normal sections, and has an .ini file with 'em, should make your life easier.
