The first font captures the old school feel, unless people think it's *too* old school - this isn't Asteroids ;)

For cursive fonts, Ithink it needs to be beefy, not spidery, to be readable on a small screen like a phone.

The map picture is an interesting alternative idea to the logo screens, though I think sticking at least the shield-and-swords logo on it somewhere would tie it in better to the desktop icon in the player's mind. Also, the gold font color disappears a bit against the spotted stone. Most colors would stand out better against the grass or a solid patch of forest.

I like font 4 the best. Like Tomcat, I also prefer the earlier logo style screen you did.

@ Ace, I'm not sure why you can't post images. It still works for me.

Actually, in the original post I wrote "exemplary color font" and when editing it left out.and I agree with you.

Well, I think it was due to the image sizes. and it occurred two times, I already double posted without knowing. :mrgreen:

I will try to make an interesting cover.
Can you suggest another better in-game scenario?

I did wonder about that myself. I don't know what the limit is. There must be one, but it's large. What were the file sizes of the images?

I don't think that should be a problem.
