Character-Creation/Selection Screen Background
« on: December 04, 2012, 01:13:04 AM »
I couldn't find the full background image via PIGG-diving, so I cobbled it together from a few images on-hand.



I thought someone besides myself might like to use if for photo-shopped images and the like :) Enjoy!

Nice work!

Though I'll always remember the "blue skyline" screen, and if I think hard (or check screenshots), I can even recall the original version with eight fixed slots and Origin borders around each name.

Thank you! PSP 8 is my friend!

PSP 7 is a better friend, but I can deal with PSP 8 :)

At least it was still a JASC product then, and not Corel.

Yup! *participates in the round of High-5's* :)

FWIW (for what it's worth), I found the background/screen you wanted in a pigg.

If you want I can post it.

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

Hey - do the original "Blue Skyline" and "Red Skyline" backgrounds still exist as piggs in the data?

What about the Gold Praetorian one?

Hm, any idea on how to *change* the screen background? To something more picture taking friendly.
I mean well, I swear.

The background for the ICON character creator?

It's possible, but not exactly easy. It involves editing a pigg file.

I'm willing to learn! And also have the sense to back stuff up.
