DiceTool Splashscreen
I'm on a roll (couldn't resist the pun). How's this look:

Is it me or is the purple and red not playing well together.

I don't have a problem with the purple and red interplay, but I can definitely see Full Bleed's point about the background feeling a little "flat". Token Tool's splashscreen feels like it has a little more to it because of the 3 layers: title, horse and background.
That being said, I still like it and will drop it in a build of DiceTool. Need to add the icon anyway, this gives me double incentive.

I like that, the effect needs to be subtle or the background gets busy and starts to mess with the readability of the nameplate, that's why it is light to start with.Phergus wrote:Maybe a slight bumpmap effect applied to the background image would help the flatness. Something like this but done just to the background layer.
How's this:

I think the new one looks better, but I think what you need is some kind of singular iconic object overlay on the left hand side, over the background but under the "Dice" text. It would tie it in better with the Token Tool Splash (Horse) and MapTool Splash (Map Rose.)
I think a hexagon with the kind of shading you put on the horse would probably work.
