[VX] Simple Title Script

Latest Post

I requested one for XP and was able to get it a while back, but now I've upgraded to VX and need halp :(

I know nothing about scripting, so if this sounds simple, I apologize in advance. Basically, what I want is a title screen that gets rid of the generic window skin, and uses pictures instead.

For example, I want to use instead of text 'New Game' with the blue windowskin, a picture file that has 'New Game' on it, but changes colors when its highlighted. This is the previous script I used on XP, but its not compatible with VX:
