<div class="IPBDescription">Post your battle pictures!</div> This is for everyone who likes to take screenshots. I want everyone to post their best pictures in NS. Don't post just anything, either, post pictures that invoke emotion. Pictures that portray heroism, sacrifice, suspense.. meaningful pictures.

I'll start us off.

I thought this was a really dramatic picture that i took. The Fade is about to descend upon the Marine.

Don't just post anything. I had to cycle through many sets until i found one that i found note worthy. And feel free to compliment or comment on the pictures others post too, this isn't strictly for realeasing pictures, but the conversations should stay on the topic of the pictures.

Crop your pictures. Make them look like they were taken by a photographer.

    no, no, no. This is not what i'm looking for. I'm more looking for pics taken in spectator mode, or at least cropped, and not of just mindless action. DRAMA! HEROISM! i want creativity in these pictures!

    I'm glad i'm getting some participation, though.

    You don't understand. This is ALL wrong so far. READ what I'm telling you. I want GOOD pictures. Taking pictures of soldiers in their finest hours. Dramatic shots. You've all missed the point completely. This thread is not for any screen shots. It's for the BEST screenshots. And i'm not saying the best because they're funny or there's a million turret factories in them, but because they depict emotion or encourage thought.

    Don't post your screenshots unless you understand.

    AND i dont want them straight from the game either (which i mentioned earlier but you obviously ignored) CROP your pictures. They should look like they were taken by a PHOTOGRAPHER. No crosshairs, no waypoints, no player names should be visible. Look at the example i've given. come on, people. This could be a really cool thread, but you need to follow the instructions. Otherwise, start your OWN thread.

    yeah, too bad you get a

    though you can infer from a picture farther down of what the original was like.

    I wish I could see the original of that one, the latest ones look cool.
  • Foxtrot_UniformFoxtrot_Uniform Join Date: 2003-06-12 Member: 17328Members
    even though we can't actually SEE the picture, that is the kind of situation i would like to see in this thread. That's the right idea.

    Alright, this one isn't ESPECIALLY noteworthy, but i felt that it captured the feeling of NS. The surrounding darkness...

    Fluffybunny, not bad. Your caption adds more than the picture does, though. Try to take pictures that speka for themselves. Not bad, though. It's not cropped. Edit out the blue arrow and cut out the deathmessage and it would be pretty good.

    I like your picture because none of the umbra clouds are clipping. They look really good. Also, the jetpacker's trail is neat as well as his position in the air. Crop and edit a little.

    also, guys, comment on the pictures (once we start getting some good ones).

    A beautiful pic. Fits the topic well I think.

    A shot of the protectors of the Innocent, Guardians of Mankind, Humanities' bastion against the Xeno Menace that is the Kharaa.

    ...Possibly...

    You like it...? When you start looking around the NS maps, you realize how picturesque they arecompared to any other mod. There are some great pictures to take i tell you.

    Alright, i took 2 more pictures that i particularly enjoyed. The first, was a very lucky picture i didn't realize i got until i was cycling through them all afterwards.

    A marine who's base has been overtaken is enshrouded in spores and for a brief moment, he sees the ghostly image of his killer moments before he falls victim. Actually, I'm particularly proud of this one. What do you guys think?
