Help with HaTPC

Okay, I made a very nice level (in my opinion) and I went to upload it, but it says 'Your cave submission had the following errors:
Maps may only have 1 water level.' I have absolutely no idea what the problem is, if anyone could help I'd be most appreciative.

Could you give us a screenshot of what it looks like in the Cavemaker? Perhaps that'd help.
But judging by the error message, I'm guessing you have two separate pools?

It is something about how you used the water tiles -- if they're on different heights, that may be the problem.

Let me try.
Let's say you got this:<pre>-----------------
-----------------
-----------------
-----------------
</pre> where "-" refers to the water level.
Let's assume that you want it to be 4 tiles deep, like above.
The solution is this(if I'm not wrong):<pre>-----------------
</pre>
because they are only asking for the water level, the highest level the water can reach. The game will fill all the empty spaces below the water
level with water.

Hmm. It sounds like that may be the problem. I'll try just filling one line with water. I'll also get a screenie, maybe that will help.
*Edit* Sigh, I removed ALL the water from the entire level, and it still says maps can only have one water level! Okay, now for the screenies, I hope they'll help.

It's tiny, I know. And it's not complete, but it's the best my paint program would let me do. You'll notice there's no water, (as mentioned above) which is why the error message is making me so irritated.
*second Edit* Strange, it wouldn't let me post it. Oh well, just go the the link, hopefully it'll show up there.

You can only have one square for the water level...
Edit: and that pic is WAY too small...
Change it to a .gif or .jpg and you'll have a larger image of the same filesize...

Yeah, I know, I'm not very proficient with stuff like that. But I removed ALL the water, and it still said you could only have one water level.
