I hesitate to say 'fixed' in case the dark side of that planet was left transparent for a reason, but I couldn't see any point behind it, so I filled it in. Now the upper left corner of your splash screen can be a color other than black and still look good.

This is probably the 5th version I've seen. :) I improved it once, DaBrain did a really nice job on a improved version, and a couple of other people have offered an enhanced version as well. Personally, I just use the one on this (http://offload1.icculus.org/~taylor/fso/pics/splash_t.jpg) for myself (the splash screen from my personal VPs), having long since grown tired of the same old thing.
But you could have actually done yours in DDS format rather than PCX. Uncompressed 32-bit, for the alpha channel, works for pretty much everyone on the interface. Just be sure to not use mipmaps (the game ignores them, but will complain in debug builds, as well as just wasting memory).

Well, this is the one that's in the media VPs and I noticed that fsport's splash screen made it reaaaally apparent that there's only half a planet there. Personally, I think the logo in the media VPs should be replaced (not with this one necessarily, although that would be cool) since, as it stands, it's a bit silly right now...

Moved to the proper forum. (The FSUP is in charge of the mvps.)
