Even if it cant be it would be very easy for me to change :)
Looks great, we may need your talents for the Example Suite :)

Think it'd be a good idea to avoid anything that could be construed to be "Bethesda" - including, unfortunately, the font and the backdrop on that mock-up pic; too close to the actual Morrowind logo. Maybe it'd be a good idea to de-emphasise Morrowind more, especially post-1.0, if TCs like Redemption can find ways to not use any Bethesda assets (giving OpenMW another game it can claim to support).

Sslaxx, it doesn't matter. People can use it for whatever they want, a wallpaper or splashscreen, or someone could hack it into the game as a replacement for the main menu.

The font although looking morrowind ish is actually a free to download font called magic cards :) as for the rest of it its all original art work although it may look similar it is unique and individual in its own right, no copyright infringement has happened. I run my own graphic and web design business so I know all of the laws surrounding intellectual property.

Yeah, this is a truth. Anyone have any additional thoughts on banner image and thumbnail account avatar image thingy before I or anyone else changes anything?

Thanks for bringing this up Necrod.
