Pause Screen

RipSiKRipSiK Member Posts: 9
Hi guys; I am using photoshop to do a goood chunk of my art right now. I am curious if anyone knows which tool I should use to make a faded rectangle above my play screen. It would kind of look like a pause screen so that you could still see the game in the background.. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Also what programs are most of you guys using to compile your art?

    How do I make the rectangle; Should I just use the line tool?

    opacity (pick a percentage you like ... something like 30ish should do)

    Well; it's technically not a pause screen. It's going to be a screen that comes up before you advance to the next level to give your character the ability to upgrade his tools and what not before you advance to the next level.

    I use Illustrator and Photoshop for my images. And I plan on using Poser in future titles.
