ADVICE REQUEST: Title Screen
re: title screen
the SGA is difficult to make out only because the image is small on your resolution--keep in mind that when you play the game, that 320x200 image is going to be FULL SCREEN. it's quite easy to make out--the letters are identical in size to the lettering on the "THIS IS NEAT" signs in Keen1-3.
the teal zippers... any advice on how to get them looking better? maybe some shading?
Yowza--tell me more. what did i change that you don't like? how can i make it more appealing? i want this mod to be good :-)

re: TItle Screen Final
Alright, then--based on all feedback to this point, I'm about ready to call this my FINAL Title Screen:
Last chance for comments, questions, and changes!

That about wraps things up for me... Title Screen's done--lots more left to do! :-PAlso, for the record, here's a clarification on the Teal Zipper thing.
In the background of title5, you may have noticed something like this:
This was a reduction of the in-game graphics for the same thing, which are:
I was attempting to add more depth to title5 by putting some scraps of imaginary level far in the background. I'm surprised you guys were able to understand that they were indeed zippers! Kudos!

Something like, splotch for green.
Wow, that's an unbelievable improvement from the original.
A little strange, but I just noticed, Keen has three green splotches on the side of his helmet, is this a replacement for the usual green G?

re: Splotches
Joseph, when's the last time you played Keen: Galaxy and Aliens?? Check the title screens on those games; Keen doesn't have a G on his helmet there, either!! :-)

re: Title Screen 6
Okay, I updated it one last time -- the target is now much more round and 'normal' looking, and the floor on the right was changed back to blue. This is my final revision!
Also, it seems that 3 pages is about as long as a topic can get and still sustain interest in this forum :-) Good to know!
I hope more people post threads like this, asking for opinions and advice... That's how truly great things are made. I'm really looking forward to your guys' stuff. From what I've learned in this thread, my Keen2 mod is going to blow my Keen1 mod out of the water!

My intensely critical review of your final and heretofore permanent and unchangeable design for your title screen is as follows:
Cool!
I like it. My only suggestion is that perhaps you should scrap the whole thing and redraw it from scratch.

Hey, cut that out Xky! That was sarcastic humor!
*beaned with another can*
All right, all right, sorry!
