Just for fun:   I have coded a tileset layouter, which can be used for both SR stages and world maps. /me |

Does that mean I can make my own SR level that I can play, or that I can make stuff that looks like the SR tileset?
P.S. Nice picture.

No, you can not play it. You can just create an image.
The simple version can only generate images of SR stages. You just have to provide a landscape image (st?.gif), a tileset image (gt?.gif), and the water tile image (water.gif). (You can get them from the game file)
The complex version can generate every kind of tiled maps, which includes the SR stages and the SR world map. But In addition to the tileset images you have to provide a quite complex pattern ruleset which choses the right tiles at every position, based on the neighbouring tiles.
Both are online and PHP based. But I have to do a little bit more testing before I can give other people access to them.

You need a image with three colors: pure black for ground pure white for background pure blue for water But a few things are important: The ground has to be always at least 2 pixel thick. 1 pixel doesn't work because there are no tiles for it. This is also important at corners. The water surface has to be straight and there has to be air over it, or you won't get this nice curly line. And don't make it to big because it will have 8 times the size in both directions, or 16 for the world map tiles. For example this image:  Results in these images:   I think I can give you access to the tool during this weekend. I still have to make it foolproof ...  /me |

 I like it, it could make it easiser to create the stages for SSB SE, then maybe I could prgess a little in that game. I would appreciate you if you would let everyone here be able to use t. |

Here, I made a custom one:  I used  in lieu of water.gif (it is roughly #D72D29),  as the stage, and  as the terrain. I had 2 problems. One: the lava wasn't exactly #D73D29, so had to use the dropper tool and fill the space in, and with my custom tileset, the white spaces around the border were originally there until I edited them out. |

Nice! Your ground tileset looks really great!
And yes, the borders are an issue for the tileset: You should use an image editor which can define a certain color as fully transparent and use it for the corners.
I used a Paint Shop Pro 7, which is quite old. But every good image program should have this function (note: this excludes MS Paint). Very often it is hidden quite good in the program and sometimes it's only available for palette images with 256 colors).

Danke sch'o'n! Of course Paint is the only editing app I have.
