Marine Splash Screen (as Requested)

Nossah

<div class="IPBDescription">I've started on a marine splash screen.</div> Note that i said "started" because i have some problems with the bitmap. This is what i came up with.

Copy and paste in browser (this is the only way, sorry about that)

Remember that i just started, and some encouragement is needed if i am to continue this, cuz it probably isnt the best you've seen.

The problem, when i load the game and the title screen pops up the letters and the pic are all messed up.

Same here, copy paste.

Does anyone here know how i can fix this? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

I have to be frank with you.
This is the best i've seen.
You drew(?) this yourself?
It's a very nice freakin' job...
Don't see why you need encouragement, take 1 look at it and you know this is nice...

Good enough? <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

wow. will it come with custom fonts?

Llama_Killer

Whooooo purty!!!

/me saves as background!

Kaine

to change the fonts in the menus you have to edit one big bitmap which is miles long, it can be done, i've done it before, but its a **obscenity**.

Nossah

It turned out that in fact it wasnt 640 480, must have done something wrong when i was resizing, but anyways it's fixxed and i can start on the detail's now. the pic is from an alien vs predator wallpaper. Wish i myself could draw like that <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->. as for the costum font, the answer has to be yes. but ill first work on getting the bitmap to look ok. after that i'll see what's next.

Now for another problem, i probably wont finish it soon as i am in my last 2 weeks of school for this year, and i got a shitload of homework to do so i will probably start the real word on it next week's weekend.

Elbo

you run less than 640*480 ?

Wolf_Kahler

The resolution of the game menu doesn't change. Only the in-game and loading-screen resolutions change. The "splash screen" is always 640x480. At least, as far as I know. I could be wrong. Corrections would be appreciated.
