Better with or without rivets?

I think you can use them. I collected these logos from Google images.
Thank you Fernando. I had seen the logo in the subsim homepage, but I was hoping that Vecko had a clean one (of decent resolution and without background) close at hand. In any case, the stuff you have uploaded is enough for me to redraw the logo, if needed

I like it too, but in the context of the current loading screen, I think a more stilized logo, or no subsim logo at all, would look a bit better

Good remark

Any decison on whether to use the subsim logo or not, and which one we should use, is entirely on Vecko and Neal, indeed. I am only involved in "artistic" aspects, but going by the first layout proposed by Vecko (before I offered to rework it), I think Neal has already granted permission to use it. If not, Vecko should ask permission to do it, before making the new loading screen public with the next TWoS release.

I'd say without the rivets ...They look like letters having a measles. Without the Subsim logo as well. I don't want to provoke any possible or impossible legal troubles by some frustrated noob who can not handle install instructions or similar. So far I'm pretty much satisfied with this one...

Let me know what you think about every single change guys
Vecko, this version without the rivets and the subsim logo, but the slightly darkened metal letterring would be perfect.

Okay, in that case, let me send you a better version of it: the layout proposals I have posted on the forum are Jpg-compressed. By the way: are you 100% sure that bitmaps bigger than 1024 x 512 pixels are not possible? The beauty of the original picture might be worth a little messing in UI Editor

Well, I tried everything I know. There may be the solution for this issue but I'm not aware of it honestly...

Here it is: darkened rusty metal lettering without subsim logo and with slightly narrowed shadowed box on the bottom, to fit better the width of Vecko's anti-noob message

Okay, no worry. I have included in the rar file a stock-size version of the screen for immediate use, and an HD-size one, just in case one day you manage using it.

For the moment being, end of my services I think

If you want an im-game preview of the new loading screen, you are free to replace the file above with the one I have uploaded yesyerday. If not, I think the new one will be standard starting from the next release TWoS release
