UPDATE
Ok im starting to get rolling again and have been working on the woodie, here are some pics:
Its called "The Lost Pillar" and im gonna be adding ruins and aged-looking buildings all around the coaster. hope you enjoy. -

It looks very nice. I don't really like the checkerboard paths, but I've never really liked that style. In this particular case it kinda looks like somebody spilled some bleach and the color was taken out of patches. The part where the coaster dives under all those pillars and ruins looks awesome. Very well done. I like the tree/shrub mixture too and the dense look. It would be nice to see a building or two scattered throughout. And that raised area leading to the coaster exit is kinda funky. If it were my I'd try putting in the raft ride stairs even though it's RCT2. So anyway, nice theme. You're on the right track.
I see 'parkmaker' in your future. -

I'm not too keen on the grey paths either, the last screen has a sort of dusty feel but I like the exit from the small tunnel. Otherwise very good... It would be great to see you do a really colourful section Kumba -

First pic is nice but im not too keen on the second pic.
First pic - The Ruins make the pic look nice.
The second pic - That part of the woodie looks very intense.
Oh and The path selection is horrible. -

Those last two are the worst in this thread.... *sigh* anyhow, it looks pretty decent. The ones of that adventure ride were great, the archy, the ride the landscaping it all just "clicked". Those last two are going to need a few changes:
1) Try different pathing, those just don't work
2) Add some archy, maybe with some color in them, those last two screens looked SO dead.
3) Try some jugle flowers out, they don't need to be watered or anything and you could add a hint of color that way, maybe it'll help fix the "deadness".
Try those. You said you were going to add more ruins and stuff, i back you there, it needs it! -

OK the last 2 pics are not as good as some of the others, the path needs work, i know. i will try some other ones but for now its like that, i dont want this to look like nirvanas paths (path really).
and colers, belive it or not i just did a contest entry with bright orange and green the other day but still how many bright ruins have you been to ? maybe near the paths i will add some or on one of the other islands.
anyways here are 3 new screens that stand up to the ones of the adventure ride imo.

Looks awesome, sweet, cool, anything but great.....LOL, oh I am too funny.
Anyway very nice but get rid of the fruit tree in the last pic, looks out of place. -

Well those last three are a big improvement. Still play around with the pathing. I like where this park could go but isn't. Hmmm. Still i agree with Mick, kill the fruit tree. And PLEASE add jungle flowers! PLEASE!!!! If you color them like say Crimson they'll help the look while still livening the place up a bit... Just requests. I like what's there, I'm just telling you what could make me love it.

When i first saw the coaster colours i thought they were shit. But the more you look at it the better they are. I think the style you have is great and every park you make, you just keep getting better. The only complaint i have with these screens is the paths and in some of them there isnt enough archimetecture. Other than that they are great!

chris - i will take out the fruit and add another one
turned - im still thinking of other paths to use i will let you guys know if i change them.
guljam - yes you typed that in near perfect english, but i still can barely understand you
mick - i was flamed for spelling it "great"
thanx for the comments -

Yes, do consider changing the paths. I do like the path type you're using but the multi-color thing is just distracting from the atmosphere. I don't think you should add flowers though. Flowers are a little over-used nowadays and one of the things I was particularly liking about this theme is the lack of flowers. -

Well, as you can see, I'm not too good at mimicing Kumba...
Darnb, image will only upload at RCTS... -

I like it. The 'ruins' are beautifully made. I think the colours are a bit strange though - it might benefit from...i dunno....dirt path? And flowers! Red flowers! Or something like that -

Well, this little screen shows a tiny island with a bit more color then the others...
Thanks to Kumba for hosting...
