IIRC, some of the skin was made by Luigihann.
Might as well add a pause-overlay.png?

Easy
Very solid difficulty.
02:43:117 (3) - Remove new combo?

Normal
00:22:545 (5) - IMO the song still feels "slow" at this part, so you should refrain from using the 1/3.
00:31:116 (1) - Space this farther from previous note? Don't stack this with previous slider.
00:36:259 (1,2,3,4,5) - IMO this pattern seems too much for this part. Maybe make it something like this?
00:51:687 -> 01:08:402 - Maybe make the slowdown here 0.75x instead?
01:58:545 (1,2,3,4,5) - Same with 00:36:259 (1,2,3,4,5) ?
02:34:545 -> 02:51:259 - Make this 0.75x instead?

Hard
Good

don't know if I can help you much since it is in well-arranged now.
Oh, I'm hardly modding at this time, so it takes a lot of time. don't worry much :3

Easy
fine

Normal
00:14:402 (5) - I think that repeated slider still fits here.
01:15:687 (2) - move it to this >> http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/193767 It is the first time you introduce this pattern, so I think that making newbie players know this pattern clearly would be better. Putting in the same position for the first time may be a little hard for those. Maybe, I think too much = =.

Hard
00:22:973 (9) - put it this way? http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/193777
02:03:687 (1,2,3) - not sure if it's good idea to create a little slope in slider。 http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/193779
03:01:116 (3,4,5) - Just suggest, http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/193785

卧槽既然用了custom音效为啥不弄个silenced sliderslide，slider太吵了。。

[skin]
spinner-circle.png应该是666x666吧
sliderb怎么是斜着滚的orz
spinner-circle.png这个真是有点瞎。。导致转圈的时候看不到cursor了

[Easy]
00:20:392 (2,1) - 我个人不是很喜欢stack的combo颜色不同，嘛虽然这是个人习惯了
00:23:392 (1) - ctrl+h，flow好些
00:40:963 (3,1) - 总感觉两种颜色stack在一起真是。。
02:29:392 (2) - 这个其实可以ctrl+r，然后02:30:677 (3) - 就可以放到中间来对称了。嘛如果在意spacing的话微调一下就好

[Normal]
02:22:820 (4) - 这里我感觉circle at 02:22:820 - ，slider start at 02:22:963 - 好点，这样让人明显知道这里是二连，就会提前按了，如果只是单个的折返slider，可能有人会按晚，就算你spacing是对的
03:10:820 (2) - 这个note感觉有点多余，这里应该没有这个音才对

[Hard]
我还是建议HD跟OD换一下，你这图NC下得够多了，HD高点没事的放心。然后1/3的歌一般ACC都比较低，所以OD还是降低点善良点吧
02:22:820 (1,2) - 这里也是建议叠起来，理由同Normal的02:22:820 (4) -，这里因为能预测到vocal起于02:22:963 - ，所以可能有人会按晚
02:34:535 (1) - 我感觉这个shape很样衰啊。。
02:55:963 (3,4,5) - 这里我建议弄成折返slider，刚开始高潮就用4连太突然了，先让player知道你打算用4连好点，然后后面几个再用circles
03:08:820 (3) - 到这里的话，人家都知道你这里肯定是4连了，所以可以放心用circle其实0.0
03:11:392 (3) - 其实可以换成circles，多送点分多好

玛德，神mapper都应该去死，去死，去死

[General]

move the offset to 242ms, this moves the offset to the start of the song with -7ms in effect, so please also move the inherited sections -7ms and resnap all hitobjects afterwards.
The SB lyrics are quite a problem, because red font with green contour is really a bad color combination for this purpose. Even though this is the typical christmas combination, the contrast is way to extreme to use them for font design like that. You could change the contour or the font itself to white, or find an own solution to this, just make sure it's easy to read and clearly visible.
~~You are always on the safer side with forcing default skin in settings whenever you add own skin(elements).~~

[Easy]

Did you forget to set the chorus sections to custom1 samples here, or was it on purpose?
00:29:820 (2) - you should use custom2 samples for this as in [Hard]
Your new combos are a bit confusing for an Easy. Beats that are close together in the timeline should form a combo, especiall when they are stacked. 00:20:392 (2,1,2,1) - Here I would move the new combos to the two (2)-objects

[Normal]

You could reduce HP drain here by 1
00:29:677 (2) - you should use custom2 sample here as well
Check your new combos on this diff as well: 00:58:963 (6,1,2,3,1,2,3,1) - In this section I would only set (6) and the 2nd (3) as new combo. Compared to Easy the new combo stacking is a minor problem here, and it's up to you what you do about this. Please have a recheck on the whole diff anyway.
02:13:535 (2,1) - having these two sliders stacked appears strange. I suggest to either do something about the new combo or space it out.

[Hard]

You could increase overall difficulty (and maybe approach rate) a bit here
again check your new combos for consistency
00:20:820 (3) - additionally put a new combo at this, it's a good point to split this rather long combo.

Good map

Thanks for all!
It's a tough work to list all of my changes so lemme lazy for a while please.

However, I've make sure that all of your modding is very meaningful enough. That's why I kudosu'd all of you~ ^_^
Even though, I have to explain something about "why I do/do not changed" here:

I really couldn't find that, sorry. Since this song did not appeared in any Owl City's album as far as I known.

Thank you very much that you pointed out this mistake. I've get the skin maker's permit already.

Actually there is no different since I do not use any custom1 hitsound in Easy.

And about new combo, I've fixed most of those problems like 00:51:670 (1,1,2,1,2) in Hard, 01:09:242 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) in Hard, 01:09:242 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) in Normal and 00:20:384 (1,2) in Easy. However, for example, like 00:46:384 (6,1) or 00:51:242 (2,1) in Normal, remove those new combos will make those parts extremely weird imo. So I changed nothing there. Hope you could understand and support my consideration, thank you.

That's all. For now, updated. Again, thanks a lot guys!

some minor stuff left:
spinner-background should be 1023x692
spinner-circles should be 666x666

The new s2 section in Easy and Normal should be lower in volume imo (it's 30% in Hard)

~~Don't have much time this morning so here is a quick mod. lolcubes might be able to carry on the mod, but if things come up, I'll be back in 5-6hrs.~~ Edit: Okay, back

Easy:
00:12:670 (3,1) - since your combos seem to follow patterns, I would move 1's new combo and add a new combo to 3 (plus it follows the lyrics better imo)
02:42:241 (1,2,3,4) - the hp overlap here looks pretty bad, could you please move this down a bit to avoid that

Normal: fine

Hard:
The AR seems a little high for the song. -1?

Combo:
02:01:099 (6) - new combo to follow your pattern of having a new combo every 8 white ticks

Skin:
followpoint.png can only be 32x32 and not 64x64 (credit to lolcubes for this one)

====================
I didn't find much of anything. Tell me when you make the changes and I'll probably be able to rank.
