A brief history of the game
At first there was Midnight Mansion, now often called MM1. This game package was for Mac only and contained 8 mansions, each on easy, normal and hard level. Above that there was a builder included, so that customers could design mansions themselves.
Then there was Midnight Mansion HD, now abbreviated as MM1 HD for both Mac and Windows. It contained the 3x8 mansions from MM1 plus 3x a bonus mansion: Tomb of Princes. All in high definition!
Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills, includes 28 mansions with a lot of new features. The 8 built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. Yes indeed, the MM2 package also has an included builder to create mansions!

Custom mansions

In the past decades several customers started experimenting with the builders. Creating rooms. Talking about it on the Midnight Mansion Forums. Sending their own designed mansions to other board members to test them. And finally sending them to the administrators of MMF.
Result? Nearly 200 extra mansions are downloadable from these boards and some of them have over 100 rooms.
If you like to download custom mansions, go to the General Custom Mansions Area (Mac and Windows) where you find the lists with all the download spots.

I just thought this would be useful not just for me, so here's another background blending the sunset one with the night one. It's something I made pretty fast in Photoshop, although it works really well.

EDIT: I just realized I used the wrong shade of blue. I'll have a fixed one up in the next ten minutes.

Nice one, I've also made a background myself.

It's useful if you want to have a cave where the entrance is in the middle of a room

Leon, for some reason it doesn't look like your picture's working...

And I can't figure out how to get the right shade of blue at the top of the sunset background. It almost seems like the color changes once it's in MM.

That's weird, it won't let me upload to imageshack (I got the wrong shade of blue btw, I'll change that when I get time)

Let's try this

Did you use the eyedropper tool in Photoshop to get the shade of blue?
