C looks definitely better now with the new picture, I chose A before I saw it though 

[tefalo]

C looks like a winner to me, based on that comparison.

I like c. it reminds me of sim city 2000... my first ever video game...

good times... although i wish i remembered more... cause I was playing sims city 2000 before i could read... hehe... i just knew the order of the drop down menu that well.

After seeing the hill mockup A reminds me of an Escher drawing.

Yeah, there's something odd going on there.  I think the small brown section on the right should be a parallelogram.  Anyway, C looks better in any case, and better represents how ramps actually work in the game.

Also that revamped tile set is looking HOT.

Just chiming in to give my support. This needs to happen.

To me, they all look bad because every single one is going to necessarily end up with severe occlusion problems unless you can set items on the same layer as invisible.

HURRAH!!!!
I, like others previously, would like to change my vote from A to C after seeing that mockup. Although it would be better still to have A for constructed ramps and C for everything else.

*WANT!* (every now and then I receive an incentive to play DF like a madman for a month or two again, The last time were Beefmoo's sprites, I am very sure this one will kick me to play like a madman for at least 4 months!)

<3 to you guys.

Alright, tile revamp the first is done, and with it the first implementation of this here concept. Might I introduce Stonesense, the first Isometric DF Visualizer.

You may direct your awe and wonderment to Jonask84 as well. It shows simple cutaways, as well as layered multi-level terrain and constructions in Pseudo 3D, while using tons less processor power than many 3D visualizers. It can even actively display changes made to the map (for now, this is done by holding the [R]efresh button).

Looks awesome!

May I suggest one feature? Wall highlighting. Basicaly in your screenshot it is hard to distinguish between walls and floor (bedrooms in top left part of picture). If walls had black (or contrast) border, it would be much easier. You
