So we are talking about UI and interface portions, not the in space parts part of the UI and backgrounds?

No no no no no.

Not unlockable just to change them.

I understood this thread as: We have X screens from opening splash through to end credits. Each screen will have 0<Y<10 pictures (typically Y≈5; some places may only have 1; others such as opening splash and end credits may have 1 for each race, etc.) randomly selected and displayed.

All I am suggesting is have a handful of events (such as completing a campaign, making a certain number of kills, etc.) to allow some of the screens to have Y+1 (per event) pictures to choose from.

You are right, Adam - locking all the pictures and keeping them from changing is silly, especially since it seems that it is planned for them to rotate on their own out of the box :)

I only suggest this as it seems that everyone is hung up on achievements within their games (see practically any Steam game). Its just a thought to cater to that audience. Obviously, it doesn't have to be included; something like this would give the modding community something else to do ;)

1.  The screen rotation is categorized, for example the mission selection would select one of the backgrounds designed for this.  Separate than lets say one for spacedock or even the splash screen.  Right now the only on not changeable is the credits, and if I decide to put some work into that area, then it would change.

2.  I never thought about achievements.  I see them in World of Warcraft and on the steam games.  The question is how to compliment.  There must bo a goal, but where is that goal define?  Bing able to select the screen displayed for achieving one is fairly easy.  Somehow I would like the achievements modable. 

Tus-XC:
Why not just render models?

[UFP]Exeter:
In most of these 2D screens there would be no need unless we create some autorotation.

For the ship selection, to display the selected model and autorotate would be great.
