This isn't really the logical place to start as the
menu consists of all the other pics mapped onto objects,
but it provides a rather neat link to the last section so
here we go. Yes, the menu shows another use for the
rippley effect (this has nothing to do with Sigourney!!!)
which forms the light background for the other objects.
The maps are generally quite dark, and the contarst
between them and the background is essential for a menu
screen, where all the options need to be clear. The most
time consuming part of this screen, was converting all the
rendered mode 15 pics to mode 13, so I could use them as
maps. As always, ChangeFSI is essential for this sort of
work (and is reccomended!).

As I've already said, this is a heavily detailed scene,
consisting of objects that have been designed seperately,
and then dragged into view. This sort of pic can only be
produced by hard work, although the use of a spot light
inside the angle poise lamp, really completed the picture.
