Whoa you're a good lecturer. Thank you!!

[Autogameicide]

Thank you.

First look into Windows Phone and this was great.

I suggest that anyone offsets the Decal layer by the Height of the dirt to get the Decal layered more in the centre of the tile. batch.Draw(decal, new Rectangle(left, top2-DIRTHEIGHT, TILEWIDTH, TILEHEIGHT), Color.White);
