This is the menu screen for loading saved games - my small attempt at replacing the "With Love" gal. Sadly, it's basically invisible when you try to use it in game. My graphics skills are poor at best, so can somebody figure out what I did wrong....and fix it? Pretty please?

Edit: Attachment now has the working file!

For the curious, here's what it looks like (a jpeg, not the original .bmp which is attached to the first post)

Try painting a single pixel in the top left corner R 255 G 0 B 255, basically the pink colour that appears on ship shils and backgrounds for buttons etc. Save and try it again.

Tried that, but no dice. On the plus side, I gave it another shot in GIMP, and this time checked "Do not write color space information" (default is unchecked) in the Compatibility Options section of the info box that pops up when using the export option. And voila, it worked!

Anyway, I updated the attachment in Post #1 above, so anybody who prefers "front seat girl" to the....um...other gal, have at it (drop the file into your "ART" folder, although perhaps save the existing file as something else first, should you ever want to revert)

Nice...

and a belated thank you for the Setup Plans as well. I learned a lot stepping thru those.
