"Start screen" image stretching?

[CKMBDavis]

Again, apologies if this has been discussed before (safe bet that it has) - but if I'm wanting to create a new "Start Screen" graphic (replacing the large "No Mercy" logo), is there a way to use one image that can be stretched out, or should I plan on creating several images and piecing them together puzzle-like similar to how the in-game logo looks to be? Thanks to all in advance!

Keson, you are awesome, but I have another question. What should I name the image file (WWF No Mercy#-?????.png)? I know that the Start Screen is made up of many small images, so I'm not sure which one I should replace. Thanks again - I truly appreciate your help!

Hmmm, on that I am not sure. This code still has multiple images you have to splice, however, there is less of them and the textures are stretched a bit.

Also, depending on what video plugin you are using, the textures are named differently.

Gotcha, my friend. I will tinker around with it a bit and see what I can whip up. Thanks for everything!

One last question about this, then I promise to leave you alone I have taken your advice on the image splicing/stretching and it has worked like a charm, however the new start screen logo looks a bit "blocky", like you can vaguely see where the edges for each individual tile are. Is there a way with Photoshop, Gimp, etc. to smooth out these edges, or possibly another way to smooth out the edges within start screen logo? Again, thanks for all your help man. You've been a lifesaver!

From what I understand, there is slight overlapping in the textures, I would try to move them a couple pixels and see what happens.
