You Provide The Dialogue
I figured this could be good for a laugh - someone posts an NS screenshot, and you provide the caption/dialogue for it. This could include conversation between on-screen players, an argument with the commander/hivemind, someone talking to themself, a caption, or whatever else you can think up.
To help facilitate some form of sanity, I'll post a few quick rules:
<b>1)</b> <b>Have only one screenshot 'active' at a time</b>. If there are a half-dozen screenshots currently getting mocked, it could get <i>very</i> confusing. Once the current screenshot gets 7 days worth of posts, the thread is then free for the next one. In other words, there can be a new screenshot every Monday.
<b>2)</b> In regards to any on-screen chat text in a screenshot - <b>no racist, derogatory, or insulting remarks, no profanity, etc.</b> In other words, typical forum rules apply. If it's in your screenshot, make it unreadable before submitting it (<i>ie: thick black line over it</i>).
<b>3)</b> Anyone's screenshot is fair game for posting, but <b>give credit to the person who F5'ed it if it's not yours</b>.
<b>4)</b> <b>Scale down the size of your screenshot submissions!!</b> If you play at a high resolution, your screenshots will be huge. I figure aiming for an image size of approximately 800x600 is reasonable (<i>even MSPaint can scale down image sizes, so you have no excuse!!</i>). <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
<b>5a)</b> If you're adding a dialogue submission, try to include <i>only</i> the screenshot and your dialogue in your post.
<b>5b)</b> If you're responding to someone's dialogue, quote <i>only</i> the text submission and <i>not</i> the image. It'd be hard on bandwidth if every post had the image included in it.
<b>6)</b> <b>Try and link the screenshots to your own webspace</b>. I'm hoping this thread works out nicely, which means a lot of images will get included over the next few weeks/months. If they're mostly on other users' webspace, it'd save a good deal of NS's bandwidth.
Anyways, I'll get this thing started by posting a screenshot. I got this one from a thread in General Discussion - FireStorm gets credit for this pic.
