Notes/Tips
Loading screen images are 1024x512. The odd aspect ratio should be okay when the image is displayed in-game.
The outer area of the loading screen has no colors; it is only composed of an outline of the starting image. The outlines are created with a find edges filter.
High luminance (white) portions of the starting image should be made transparent so that the underlying paper can be seen instead.
The outlines on the inner area are thicker than those of the outer area.
The inner border and paper textures can be gotten from a PhotoShop image included with Oblivion at \textures\menus\loading\load_troll.psd. Use an unpacker to extract this file from Oblivion - Textures - Compressed.bsa.
An image editor with good support for layers (PhotoShop or Paint Shop Pro) is a must for creating loading screens.
