How many times you need when designing level?

I have think this when i am a designer.I take 1-3hour to make a level,so my level might easy.How about you?

I put "Friendly Fire" together in about 8 hours, and it was the fastest completion of any of the CLz I have released! Most of the time, I would spend that much time just in the basic map graphicz, before I even put any logicz or objectz onto the map! With "Friendly Fire", I used Gamer'z "A River Runs Through It" as my 'template', only having to reduce it in size, and alter it a bit for the sub-puzzlez I had envisioned the night before. It already had the Lava Poolz, Water to be crossed, and the part I used was almost perfect in size for the thingz I wanted to do. Being able to just trim thingz up a bit cut several hourz out of the preliminary graphicz design time! Using a small map (32X24) also meant there was not a lot to fill in ... unlike "Knight'z Tour", with its 80X80 map, with many dense cells for sub-puzzlez.

Bombz Away probably took me around 125 to 150 hours to complete; it was pretty long and I had different ideas on what to do where on a few points.

I think that was my longest level to make, with Decoy Ahoy! being probably about 100 hours; I still had a few items I wanted to do myself (like my first spring maze! ) and so it was less dense.

Move off the island was my shortest level; it took me about an hour to create (in one sitting; the level editor wasn't closed until it was finished!

It dependz much of the level design for me. My first CL was made in less than 1 day. But I did many correctionz on it later, and it was completed in about 3 dayz.
Second CL I made( sorry none of them are in Beta CL list [yet!] ) is still in progress, and I started the project about 2 or 3 weekz ago. I'm not a CL master, because of this I'm not so fast!
And Battlez CL that I made is almost finished, it was started about 1 week ago.
