It's very difficult to guess, because all I can see is light tan and dark green (great choices for colours, by the way), and what looks like light tan trees on an even lighter tan background.

I really like it, though. :)

I do :). It's the background that gives it away. Brilliant. Especially nice when combined with the green. Very nice vibe.

Are they trees? Or is it a map?

I see trees.

EDIT: Used Firefox to look at the image - nice touch.

It's the trees on the old Sierra box covers.

Look here for an example:

Game Arts made Thexder, Silpheed, and Zeliard, but Sorcerian was by Falcom.

I don't think there's any connection between Zeliard and Sorcerian aside from Sierra publishing the translation/port of both. Sorcerian is the fifth entry in the Dragon Slayer series (though that series doesn't share a continuity or even a genre).

Hey! I remember Zeliard, and Thexder too! :)

(For some reason, I always confused Zeliard with Zelda...) ;)
