I'm new to making WAD's, and wan't to know how I can replace TITLEPIC with a new graphic from my image file.

Your image can be in quite a number of image formats; PNG is recommended since it is lossless and has support for both paletted (Doom palette or embedded) and 24-bit true-color images. If you're putting it in a WAD file, you don't need to do much, just import the image (outside of any S_START/S_END marker lumps) and call it TITLEPIC. If it's a ZIP-based archive, the same thing applies, but it needs to be in the /graphics folder.

Interesting topic. What about animated title pictures? We desire to fix together one for our game - if possible, of course. It wouldn't be an interactive title screen, just an animated one.
It would be also extremely great if we could somehow drop the gameplay demo, so the titlepic would stay on the screen as long as the player starts/loads a game or anything.

That's basically what TITLEMAP is for; alternatively you can change the flow of pictures for the standard title screen using MAPINFO.
