Are you asking how to make one, then upload it?
Or are you asking how to change the titlescreen the title screen into one you want to use?

QuoteI mean how do you change the titlescreen from the default?
First, you must open the database.
Second, you must open the "system" page inside of the database; it should look like this:
HERE (http://www.imagetrash.com/image_12738.jpg)

After clicking the "SET" button next to the chosen title, it will open this:
HERE (http://www.imagetrash.com/image_12741.jpg)

After clicking on the title you would like to use, click the "OK" button. The chosen title will then show up as a titlescreen during TESTPLAY.

QuoteBut also, how do you upload one?
First, you have to open the "import/export resources screen":
HERE (http://www.imagetrash.com/image_12743.jpg)

Then open the "title folder", which is located along the left side of the screen, along with the other resource folders. After opening it, it should look like this:
HERE (http://www.imagetrash.com/image_12744.jpg)

Click the import button and select the picture you would like as a title.
After selecting the title, click "open". The selected picture is now selectable as a titlescreen in the database.

Any questions?
(kinda brief, because I'm in a hurry. Sorry it took so long, I was busy)

Thats bad, and you shouldn't do that. Import everything.

Post by: xanaxx on March 05, 2006, 12:13:49 AM
it said 'invalid color depth'..what should I do?
Title: Titlescreen?
Post by: dracohaze on March 05, 2006, 12:49:15 AM
it said that when you tried to import it?

If so, it means that you saved it as the wrong file type.
Reopen the titlescreen in paint and re- "save-as" it as a
PNG file.

If it doesn't work then, show me the pic, and I'll see if
it's some other problem.

It didn't work for me wither, I had this problem before.
Trying to remember what I did to fix it :?
....
It worked for me! I just transfered the picture to
"character maker 1999" and re-saved it as a png...
I'll continue to try and fix the problem, but I'm not
sure if I can get it to work again :(

Hmm ... try JPG instead of PNG

If you can change the file to JPG then do it. See if it works when you import it in JPG form.
