Hey, I'm currently working on a isometric tileset and I'm having difficulties understanding how best to edit and arrange them (I'm also having a lot of issues trying to map with them in Tiled) . Can anyone here point me to some resources or information that might help me?

The projection of TMW is orthogonal, not isometric.

Sorry for using you guys as guinea pigs, but I feel comfortable getting advise and feedback from this forum (before I take it over to a pixel art one anyway).

This looks great! An artist may have a more constructive review, but I'm certainly impressed.

What's up with the dithering? IMO it breaks the lighting.

Are the visible grid lines between the tiles intentional (for example as a visual aid for a tile-oriented strategy game) or are you looking for advise to get rid of them (for a higher immersion)?

I agree. The borders may also be a little too pronounced (e.g., for the top of the tree).
