i think the nexus logo should be made transparent so it can be barely seen(made as a background image), and the fire removed from around it (or maybe even remove the nexus logo fully)

also remove the blue glow from around the warzone 2100 resurrection logo

-

but i do agree it does look good

This looks really cool!
The glow around the WZ logo makes it very dominant, what I wouldn't consider being bad...

Perhaps add the author of that quote in a style like:

This is my demo quote...
          -- The Author


You use the Warzone Resurrection logo Kamaze removed from this forums. Great! Perhaps we can make him bring it back. :)

You added the Nexus logo. Is that because of the context of the images? (Remember I don't know the original Warzone.)
If not, then I'd suggest adding the logos of the other factions as well to show some variety... (Or remove it as C01eMaN suggested.)

One question I have for inclusion of this image into Warzone: Where did you get the images you used from? (Are they free?)

Good work! Perhaps I bring this on the 2.0.5 mainmenu. :) (Without the quote and without the Nexus logo if the other factions logos are not also included.)

PS: An idea I just got when thinking about the quote: Perhaps use the backdrops for something like "fortune" on Unix.
Backdrops appear at random, don't they? So we could assemble a set of backdrops with popular quotes as the central element. :)
(The quote would be the main / central element. There could be some postprocessing effects and probably some images in the background, but the big and central item would be the quote.)

As Nexus logo. When I cut it off than there is too many black space that is not suits . So I decreas the size of it . DevUrandom is right > that quote is by Nexus and logo is like a his signature  :)

What about the images that I used for it PIC. Yes its free. I got that form pumpkin pics.

"quote as the central element" - we use this idia on our forum & its pretty cool as for me. But if to make this in wz I recommend to make more that 10 quotes(or to add new ones in new versions of wz). Because they can replay and its will be bother'ing.(its a problem of ours quotes in the forum).

I will make some pic for more exemple . 8)

I like it too. It has a futuristic look and combination of colors I like. The glow is definitely the eyecatcher.

What I currently miss in the game is some fitting music fot atmosphere, but that's another story.

Kamaze: I know that the image is from the forums. ;) And I liked it. :P

Terminator: I thought a bit about backdrops & Co...
1st idea: Make it more like a cool piece of art instead of having too many logos on it. The Warzone Ressurrection logo is currently quite big. If you want to have it on the image to show the link with the WZR you could perhaps make it smaller and move it a bit out of focus. So it is still there but more like a small hint. (I wouldn't object if you decide to remove it, or replace it with a small text or whatever...)

2nd: If we move to the quote backdrops I talked about earlier, the quote on this image, which I currently intend to make it some kind of main menu backdrop or at least some kind of splash screen, might not be needed here but could go to an extra image?

3rd: If the quote stays move the Nexus logo perhaps a bit nearer to it, so the connection between them is more clear? Somehow make clear that the logo is that of Nexus, who is the one the quote is from...

One idea how to assemble the current items in the image:


xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
o qqqqqq w


x: Current upper part stays
o: Nexus logo
q: Quote
w: WZR logo
