I created a main title screen from Iniquities Title, i modified it, so the main screen pic you see is actually his with a little modifications, and i would like to give him a lot of credit for creating it. After i modified his pic i started getting to work making a title screen, i converted the MW theme song over to a xmw file (not an easy task lol) then i added on to the Bethesda video with a little intro thingy (not an easy task again, i had to open up the .bik file in video pad, then i had to make a new video of a screen and i added like fade in, fade out, fade in letters, etc. then i had to add that to the.bik file, save it as a wmv, then find a program that can convert it back to a .bik) then i had to replace the mainscreen by finding out how much pixels were in the original screen then expanding the screen to its size, then convert it to a dds. then replace the main screen... Took like an hour n a half just to figure this stuff out, but its done and its looks okay, a little bit low res but its a start. Version 1.1 (High definition, no Extra Video) non bordered version http://www.mediafire.com/?w0q1mhy3ye6lylh Comments plz. i want to hear the good and the bad. ill be posting pics right now too

Change log?
Uploaded it V1.0, created a link.
added a download for "no extra video"
Removed both links. Added Version 1.1 (high Definition main screen)

alex,I download and looked at

alex,

I download and looked at the .bik vid amd it was too big for my monitor max of 1440 x 900.

And the .dds is 2048x2048 so that is way too big for me.

What are the normal sizes,or does skyrim usually scale it to fit different monitor sizes.?

It looks good but I can only see part of it,the rest is off screen for me.

Nice Alexander, I like the

Nice Alexander, I like the pic! I haven't tried this yet, but I was wondering if Iniquities's could be put up? I thought his last pic was a little closer because his colors seemed to match that of Morrowind's box art a little bit more closely. Your looks a little too dark if you can see what I'm saying. 

I was also wondering if anyone was able to get those lines behind the logo like in the original Morrowind's box art? That would be sick! If possible of course.

Again, just my $0.02.

Anyways great logos and keep it up!

Mmmm, both are good but i'm more swayed towards the darker shade of triangle, seems to make the writing stand out more.

I think if you could put those lines on another "layer" and make it, like 50% transparent, that might work.

I think the lines look really

I think the lines look really out of place. The other thing I don't like is the color of the word Skywind. It should be solid white or something else that constrasts well with the background.

I'm on a work computer at the

I'm on a work computer at the moment so I can't download and try any of these, but I just wanted to say that going from the pictures alone, my money is on the bottom shot in post 23. I think it's just stunning; beautiful work. The very first version at the beginning of the thread is nice as well.

Not a fan of the version that has the lines behind it at all, but that's just me. I also agree that no extra lines such as "created by the Morroblivion team" or anything like that are necessary. Recognizing this awesome community is commendable, but I think the very experience of seeing a simple, graceful into screen that reads "Skywind" is a testament to the community's success in and of itself.
