Re: Color Theory
Hmm... the thread started at the PCKF about Modding Help for Jazz2 and the subsequent discussion of Color Theory got me thinking. I went and browsed over Keen 4, 5, and 6's title screens and briefly played each episode before sitting down to put some art together for my Keen2 mod... I'm pleased with the results, even if it's just a single picture:
Not too shabby, eh? :-D

re: Color Theory
Alright, I think I will actually write up a small article about this--my only problem is getting screenshots. I'm either going to have to finally download and learn to use ScreenThief, or just write the article up raw and hope that someone *cough KeenRush cough* donates some shots to me... ;-)
Either way, I'll get the text done for sure sometime this afternoon.

re: screenshots
Hmm... Alright, here's a short list:
Keen1: LEVEL16, the yellow pillars before the stairway
Map screen, at the top near the teleporters (showing snow-to-red)
Keen2: LEVEL01, anywhere in it--just to show the colors and whatnot
Keen3: LEVEL15, right at the start
anywhere there's a spring of water and a waterfall
Keen4: BwB Megarocket's level
Pyramid of Moons
Miragia (platforms appearing/disappearing)
Keen5: Ion Ventillation Shaft: background
Defense Tunnel (any): background and foreground (stripes)
Keen6: First Dome of Darkness: background and dome walls
Bloogbase Management District: background, posters, etc
Bloogdome: brain-y background going to other background transition
You don't have to get all of them, or any of them--it's entirely optional. But I'll try to use whatever you give me to supplement my article over in Keen:Vorticons. Thanks, KeenRush!

re: screenshotting
Yes, all your corrections are accurate... :-) Shame on me for trying to post from memory! But at least you knew what I was talking about.
Downloaded your .ZIP--all the pictures look great, except for the Miragia ones. I was referring to the in-level platforms appearing and disappearing, not the map-screen stuff, but that's alright--it works just as well. Thank you very much!!
Don't know when I'll have a chance to sit down and form a coherent statement from all this, but we'll see. Thanks again!
[Edit: Man, it's crazy--i hit 666 posts in the PCKF last night, and I'm at 66 here now!]

More Cool Pictures from Xky
More artwork done for my Keen2 mod, this one is replacing the ID Software logo on the "About ID..." screen:
This took me about 45 minutes to do, and I'm quite proud of how it looks! :-) I'd make it my avatar, but the size restrictions are 80x80 and this thing is well over 100 pixels wide.
