look, monkey island 1 was made with Deluxe Paint, try googling that, or dpaint.

monkey island 2 was made with oil painted backgrounds, then scanned in to a computer.

Looks nice!

Some critic though:
* add some shading
* go easy on the bluring
* read the rules before posting

Keep it up!  :D

Hehe, I think that's the generic critique response there.

yes the shading on the letters are terrible, they look so flat, also i would suggest to put some detail in it
also
Quotelucasfilm
it is suposed to be Lucasfilm, try using this on the rest, it will add some life
also that is a good job for a firstcomer
now on the topic

DanClarke, I would suggest adding punctuation to "dont", to add more zest, even -- dare I say -- zing! to your post. The rest looks good, keep up the good work! Can't waiit to see more posts!

i found this program (DeluxePaint) on the internet and i am using it in my dos computer
(http://www.geocities.com/jnatann/Images/nongame/DP320_200_256col.gif)
this is the one i use, it is 320 x 200 pixel and 256 colors what i love most with this are the colors, it got all the important colors you need
(http://www.geocities.com/jnatann/Images/nongame/DP640_480_16col.gif)
this is 640 x 480 pixel, as you can see this is better than the above, but the proplem is that my graphic card doesn't support 640 x 480 256 col but it suports 320 x 200 256 col.
this is avesome program it has all the important items you will need

Look... it's not always about the program. All you need are the right tools: pen[cil], fill, line and shape tools, and a decent color palette. The trick is mastering those tools and using them to your advantage. No magical graphical program is going to do the work for you.

what i found wrong with all paint programs are the color picker(i always use 256 col)
i haven't found any good program with good color picker until i found deluxe paint, it has best color picker i have seen

Practically all palettes are the same. The only different one (I think) is PSP.
