The only prob I see is that when you boot the game up you get the New Game message in the middle Bottom area, and it would cover much of the text...

What would be better is if you put a Background image on its own, then make PNG letters of the Alpha Bet so people can open up Paint and paste the letters in place on the BG image...

Make say 12 BG's and 12 diffent fancy fonts, lot a build your own title thread... Heck you can even make cut screen art or Game overs using the same method

I didnt unerstand any of that.
Title: Re: Title Screen
Post by: landofshadows on December 07, 2006, 01:14:14 PM
OK...

You do this:-

A few fonts as indivdual PNG's so they have a Trans BG (just the letters)

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z  a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z  

You then have a few Backgrounds like:-

(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.google.co.uk%2Fimages%3Fq%3Dtbn%3A1765G6Ju7fUiPM%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.eritrea4all.com%2Fimages%2FErimages%2Flanscapes%2Fer23.gif&hash=9e0e98a2beadce0a42e862bfec883823b5b6c821) (https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.google.co.uk%2Fimages%3Fq%3Dtbn%3AwFJ1FBlueDvXEM%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fstatic.flickr.com%2F35%2F104940949_9af348e02d_m.jpg&hash=0742c742fd52cd10aaa888623d463e6836a544fd)

Then the person wanting the Title right clicks on the image and save picture as and each of the letters they need to paste as a title...

BINGO WAS HIS NAMEO... do you get the idea... do Ya dig it !!!!

Or may be you didn't understand this bit:-

Did you use complementary colors on purpose or is it just coincidence? Also the colors of the letters don't really go with the background. It's too "dark" and the colors are too bright for that. You should have saved yourself the watercolor filter, BTW.

Don't mind me too much, I'm just being a perfectionist and smart-ass. xD

EDIT: I think it really looks better with less saturated colors:

I didn't spend much time on it, I didn't take the time to desaturate the colors or anything, I just used some default patterns I had laying around and a random bgimage I found with 1024094 filters applied to it.

Also, the background looks much brighter on my computer at home (I'm noticing it's darker on these school computers).

Take a look at my art thread to see some of my better stuff.

Impressive work there. I think the only thing I've noticed that I consistently dislike in your work is the text styling, it's sometimes hard to read, or just doesn't flow well with the rest of the image. I do, however, really like that "addicted to code" image. It's nice all around. :D
Title: Re: Title Screen
Post by: Blizzard on December 12, 2006, 12:39:54 PM
Yeah, I've learned a lot since I started making wallpapers. I haven't made a wallpaper for nearly over a year. All the wallpapers with the "Blizzard System" watermark are the old ones. Now I use "blizz-art", lol! Too bad I didn't find the time (and inspiration) til now to finish "addicted to code". :(

I thought the watercolor filter worked rather well in that title screen.  Perhaps the background does need to be lighter, though, because you can hardly see the dropshadow of the text.
Title: Re: Title Screen
Post by: Blizzard on December 12, 2006, 02:47:43 PM
The strokeline filter was good. The watercolor wasn't bad either, but that part right next to the window in the middle of the lower is a too strong sight catcher and ruins it IMO.
