      @retroprogrammer Haha, gonna be hard-pressed to find many that haven't been done. I've got a couple on my thread that could be worked on. I started working on Turrican 2 for Amiga but wow that's gonna be tough. :D

          @retroprogrammer Best place to make them? Probably on your computer? LOL. Or are you talking about software?

              @retroprogrammer If you know where to get it, Photoshop.

              If not, use GIMP

                I agree with @lilbud about GIMP; that should be the best place to start. And, if you really feel like it, you can upgrade to Photoshop later. But personally, I use GIMP.

                Don't sweat it.
                When in doubt, take a BYTE out of life.

                  I'm torn between GIMP and Krita and not sure which one should I take. Krita is more appealing to me because it has various drawing tools but GIMP has better filters and effects (which are all free). It would be great to hear your advice why you guys prefer GIMP, thanks in advance! Photoshop is too complex for me and I just use some simple tools.
                  Oh by the way @retroprogrammer , I read about other free photo editing software which is much easier for you to use and they include making gifs. Hope this helps.

                  It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can do only a little. Do what you can.

                        @retroprogrammer Yes it's a good idea, members of this forum are very helpful and they will give you constructive feedback about your splashscreens.
