I want to know how you did the flame and smoke. That's the type of graphics I'd love to see in AH.

very easy, although it takes a lot of tinkering time to get it looking real.
fire was just a light yellow colour painted on, with an outer glow of red as a layer effect. then i just used the smudge tool to make it look like a fire that was licking up the side of the planes. smoke was just about painting black on, using the smudge tool softly to whip it about a bit, and using the dodge and burn tools to give it volume and stuff.
easy, just takes time

Dang...I can't make mine that smooth looking...When I get done it looks like it's been pixeled 5 times over.

Biggles can you make it so the spitfire pilot is smilig and waving to the german pilot as he falls from the sky? :D
And it'd be pretty cool to see what you can do with a cv screenie :) not that i'm saying you should do one of those as your next screenie maybe with a flight deck full of F4U's fully loaded with eggs and rkts, NO why would I say you should do that kind of screenie next?

how did you do that?

Save the image to my computer, open the image, save it as a .bmp. Open the image in paint, re size it to 1024 x 1024. Fill in the blank spots (white) with black. Save the image, open the image in Adobe, move the picture to the center, save the image as a "JPEG High" naming it "ahlogo.jpg"
Afterwards I move the image to my "Aces High II" folder in the HTC directory.

I have been doing this for a while and make them every once and a while for the AK's, just for some motivation before we log in. Have also done a few others including one for the "Lighting Lancers" with 68KO's patch. Here is our current one...
