Help Remodel MODZap



As nearly everyone knows, we're getting close to 1.0 on MZ, and parts of the
program are getting kinda musty.  If you are a GS artist or composer, or just
an all-around idea-person, I want your help.  Things I'm interested in are:

o New title screen / title animations / title music / sound clips / whatever
o A new user interface (if you're handy w/Genesys/Design Master/Foundation).
o New feature ideas!
o Ideas for artwork / animations / musics / player modes / and more!

Winners will get their work included in the program, with all the credits you
can possibly want.  

Ground Rules:

o Send me as many ideas and entries as you've got.

o Graphics should be in a standard 16 or 256 color IIgs format.  Title screens
  which are 3200 color will be considered, but probably at a disadvantage
  unless it's exceptionally good.

o When designing player modes or screens, moving objects such as sprites and
  VU meters must start on an even numbered pixel boundry and be an even number
  of pixels wide, although I can work around this if your idea is very good
  and depends on some odd placement.

o If you're writing a title tune, SoundSmith, MOD (if you have access to an
  Amiga or PC with a composer program), synthLAB, and NoiseTracker formats
  will be accepted.  Try to keep title musics under around 48k.  Exceptions
  will be made for very good music.

o For a title sound clip, any format which AudioZap reads and writes will be
  accepted.  As with music, try to keep under 48k or so.

o Go wild!  Use tie-dye color schemes, wailing guitars, and pop-up menus from
  heck!  I'm intending for MZ to be distinctive.
