BTW, White Beach Peninsula? It's a cove. A peninsula is a bit of land sticking out into the water, surrounded on 3 sides. A cove is the opposite. Unless the walls have water around them, in which case it's overall a peninsula.
Speaking of, WOW that place is liberating when both your monsters can go in water! AND it has sharkies!
...While I'm thinking about it...are you making your portraits and main menu backgrounds JPEGs? Or are you trying to emulate a texture? If you're doing a texture thing, consider doing it to the portrait backgrounds too. You can tell that they're solid colors when next to the portraits.
