That doesn't really say anything. You'll probably need to provide the name of your hack and several more screenshots.

The level is kind of plain looking, and the black background looks really bad with the current color choices of everything else, they just don't match. Other than those 2 relatively small gripes, I see no glaring flaws or horrid, eye tearing mistakes. Take your time, make sure nothing clashes too badly, and have fun. You seem to be off to a pretty good start.

Thanks
there's no point in making a hack
if nobody wants to play it.
So your opinion matters a lot.
What color do you think would be best for
the BG.

It could always be a night level. Even Nintendo did that with SMB3's 8-1 (or was it 8-2?)

There are all kinds of reasons to make a hack. The worst reason to make one is just to make one for everyone but yourself. But a little critisism from others can be a good thing too, if only to help you to learn from your mistakes.

Blue is always a good color for the sky, but seeing as your ground is a light shade of green, perhaps your sky could be an ever-so-slightly different shade of green or blue.

If you are going for a night-time theme, then add some stars or something to the background, and darken up the colors of everything else in the level (It's night, so the ground shouldn't be light up neon-green as if in broad daylight).

Just use basic logic (my logic may not be the best, I'm sure others feel differently than I do) and be creative. There are almost endless possibilities for level design and graphic layouts. Sometimes the best design comes from not taking any one particular person's advice, but a nice mixture of everyone's with a touch of your own.

Don't use JPG. PNG is waaay better. Small file sizes and no damage to the quality.

I think SMB1's World 3-1 could look good here! Get it on my site. By the way, those screens look quite good for a newbie!

I like the background, but I don't think it matches with the ground. If you change either of them or darken the colour on the ground, everything should look fine.

Uh, JPGs tend to be small enough, and the quality isn't that poor. The hack that will be released will be the same.

Yes, it *is* that poor. That's the problem.

Well... depending on the compression, JPGs can look as good as PNGs, but the file size would rise dramatically. PNG (or GIF) is the best format to use for screenshots, in my opinion.

No, not .gif. Just .png.

Also, for your layout, the tag you used to make your text black is apparently in the body of your post, not the header, so it makes it rather unreadable in newreply.php and for people who have layouts disabled.

You can use GIF, if you know how to use them properly. I think it's safe to say that you don't, so PNG should be your format of choice.

I like the moon, that's about it. Everything else is a tad blech... I would'nt say it's absolutely horrible nor would I say it's the best damned thing I've ever seen. But in contrast to your experience it's still a pretty good start. With the moon, I would try a forest foreground or a sky theme. Just a tip and keep up the good work!
