in hackers, when they booted up their computer, instead of the windows splash screen, they each had their own custom splash screens, with animations. It was actually pretty cool. I wouldn't mind having something like that. Maybe i'll look up how to do such a thing: I've definately heard about it.

well, yeah that would be totally kool.. but it doesent have to be a splash screen at bootup for the compo..just like a screensaver w/ a logo, altho if you did make a splash screen demo thingy..you'd prolly win :wink: lol, but.. i don think anybody's interested in this compo for some reason

In Windows 95/98 you can do it by replacing logo.sys(its in either root or Windows directory). If you get the palette right you can do animations.

Yeah, my laptop has a custom bootup screen that I made myself. Along with running litestep with a sweet skin, it looks pretty cool.
I boot it up and people are like DUDE! Thats like such a Hacker computer! wow! Thats like totally what hackers use!
Lol
Anyway, back to the topic, Syn9 would pwn all of the entries with his logo at the start of ZeroG
