this obviously is a double post

probably noone can help u

why not study the stock pk3's and try to get some steps further. Maybe, if u would ask specfic questions, u get help...

lilttle hint: ur loading screen is in Pak1.pk3/textures/mohmenu/levelbriefing/m1|1_1.tga. Something u ought to have found out urself and which would explain how e.g. a knife can be added

You need to learn some basic graphics and get a program to handle it. I use the Gimp - paint and infranview. These are all free software.

you get a bottle of vodka, apple juice, enough ice in the freezer, then you put in some good sound, start your image editor (note: treat it nicely, because like all the other pc stuff it will get evil if you treat it badly (in any other case it will too)) and after half night drinking, you'll have a freaking cool loadingscreen...
anyway, that's not the common way and just how i do it...

so check nemesis' tutorial and
this, that might give you a clue. if you're lost with layers anyway, pm me and i'll send you an example with explanations (photoshop)...
