Now that chapters are being release twice a year, thats a lot of Logins.

Now I have only being Playnig GW scince this Feburary, After the Factions PvP before the PvE, And it has been my understanding (If I am not wrong) That there was another login screen before The "Character Standing on a Pedestal in the middle of an Ocean"

And now we have the "Standing on a Rock Between land And Sea".

Could you make an option to select Which Background you would like to have?

Seeing as the Files are local, All you'd have to do is link and enable the options as a selection.

And here's a marketing idea for additional money (If Anything can be bottled, Somebody Will buy it): Themed logins Such as The Northern / Southern Shiverpeaks / Fire islands / Kryta Only available threw the online Store.

Thank you.

I like the idea

But it would be a better thing to add to a pre-release pack than to sell. if that did that then maybe they could offer a whole loads of ones in a pack in the online store for a few dollars or something.

The idea is simple.

Now that we have three section screens, I think it be good if A.net could allow us to select which chapter character selection screen we could use.

I really like the Nightfall background and music, but I miss the Chapter 1 and 2 screens. Wish we where were able to use reuse them.

What does everyone can?

LMAO. Thanks for the laugh.

I honestly liked the first log in screen where all the characters were standing up.

How on Earth was a whining? The idea is to give people the option to select which one to use? I wasn't whining at all.

The Nightfall screen is awesome, so was the Factions one.

I also wish to use the Prophecies one for Nostalgia purposes.

But I think it would be better to create a new Prophecies one done in the 3D style like the rest of the Log-in screens.

Maybe make a 3D version of the campsite.

I dunno if you ever played D2, but if you did, remember creating a char for it? It was a bunch of heroes standing around a campfire, and when you chose one, they would step forward. Choose a different one and that one goes forward while the other one moves back. The background was a camp in post-searing Ascalon.

But imagine ALL your characters standing at the campfire. Since you are able to buy additional character slots, and probably wanting to make one character for each primary profession, you will soon end up with 10 characters at your Login-screen. Getting a bit crowded, don't you think?

However, I like the idea of using the Login-screen you prefer, I just don't like paying for additional ones.

So... /signed

I would love to see this, as well as more customization of the GUI... would be nice to have some different skins on stuff IMHO.

I love this idea except for the paying for it part. It's about as dumb as selling cell phone wallpapers, except that call phone wallpapers suck and original (previous) login screens are/were awesome. I don't like that boat. D<

Hum, good point.

Afterall The Login is a big advertising screen.

I'm thinking that it could change back after X amount of time, or over the weekends.

Now imagine all your characters heads ( in those little boxes) all on the screen. With about 10, thats 10 little heads. Getting a bit crowded, don't you thinkg?

Oh wait..Thats why they added the scrolling feature on the log in screen...

Simply add that to the Proph one and have it so there are 4 on the screen at a time and you can scroll through them.

I say remake campfire screen so it's a 360 area and put all 10 characters in a circle around the fire.

If someone has 20 characters? Make the circle bigger!
