Hi Boo

My computer classes are watching a movie today so I had some time to fool around with Paint Shop today. I'm playing with layers, blending, and masks and used your mod idea as inspiration for a project. Here is a possible load screen for your mod

(SPQR piccy)

let me know if you like it. Also, no offense intended, fooling around with your mod gave me an idea, if you don't like it, or have your own ideas thats great. I am certainly not trying to step on your toes

Good grief that's brilliant. Do you think you could throw together a Socialist Scotland load up screen. Will link a site you could use as inspiration if it helps.

SPQR is an acronym for Senatus Populusque Romani menaing the Senate and People of Rome

Thanks for the kind words . . . I'll see what I can whip up tomorrow. Just got back from my son's hockey practice and I am about ready for bed.

One question, or two . . . do you want something color, or greyscale, and does the hammer & sickle figure in or is that too far left. I made a skin screen for an America gone Communist just for the hell of it and I have a really eerie pic of a guy holding a h&s . . .

Wouldn't surprise me. I was thinking of playing a game as a radical left USA, I have some great ideas for writing an AAR. J. Edgar Hoover as an NKVD sleeper agent pretending to suppress the Communists during the Palmer Raids, and then really protecting the hard core cells as he rises through the FBI. Events like the Bonus Army, the Depression, etc, spin the USA radically to the left. Then maybe you have the UK and Germany linking up to save the world from Communist threats from East and West. Would make for an interesting 1936 campaign and an AAR
 
If anyone is interested I could use a few more things made. I figure I'll give Rey a break since I usually turn to him for this kinda stuff.

Anyway I'd be interested to see if anyone could make a good scenario selection graphic for a Korean war scenario. Please base it off the HoI2 style, making it black and white.
 
I love that Communist USA backround... Now I must play as the Communist USA.
Could someone make a Communist USA flag that actually resembles the USA flag? I have seen ones that look nothing like the USA flag but I dont like those.
 
The problem with the USA flag is that there is nothing overly counter-revolutionary on it to start with. Quite frankly, it's bland. At least on a Romanian flag you can substitute the Communist coat of arms for a royalist one, but what in the world are you going to do with stars and stripes?
 
Yea you are correct you cant do much with it. For some odd reason(not bashing US politics) the normal US flag makes a good Fascist one to me but not a good National Socialist(I guess no swastikas on it?).

:rofl: Ah, that is truely excellent! I'm planning on having an option for a Communist/Syndicalist America in my (developing...) mod 'Kaiserreich' - could I use this? And if you have anything for a fascist-style America, that would be brilliant too!

Also, I have quite a few pictures I want to merge together to use as a loading screen for the mod, but I haven't got the programs (eg. my Paint Shop Pro trial version has expired!) or the graphics ability to do it very well! Could anyone help?
