<div class="IPBDescription">Post your best photography</div> I wanted to give this idea one last try. Post pictures you've taken in game, but read the guidelines carefully.

<span style='color:red'>Guidelines:

1. Crop your pictures
2. No text or crosshairs should be visible (pics should look like they're actually taken by a camera) and should be removed before the picture is posted. Don't leave your gun in the pics either.
3. Only best pictures (nothing of common images or situations) We need drama and excitement.
4. This isn't a thread for silly or goofy pictures. They need to be serious in nature. They should try and capture the serious side of NS.
5. Default models are required unless the picture is excellent.
</span>


Tip:

Bind a key that is easily reached while playing to be your screenshot key. When in battle lower your crosshairs so that they wont get in the picture, and just keep pushing the screen shot key. You might get lucky.

Here are the pictures I have taken. Note that they follow the guidelines and to me, seem pretty unique, then, post your own!

This picture is one of my favorites. The angle is just right, and they seem to be staring right at eachother. The Fade's arms are outstretched in what almost looks like a Holy-Cross sort of position, making it seem like an apocalyptic photo. The red sky of Hera adds to the effect.

**PHOTOGRAPHER'S TOOLKIT!!**
<a href='http://romano.webhop.org/cgi-bin/download.pl?file=PhotographersToolkit_2.zip' target='_blank'>Right HERE!</a>
Before using the photographer's toolkit, be sure to back up all of the files in your models and sprites folders. The toolkit removes them so that you can take photos FULLSCREEN!

    ayumi is an extremely picturesque map. The marine making his way through the mist seemed to me, a neat visual.

    wow, those are very cool, that first one is awesome

    The 2nd one is scary, you'd expect a skulk to burst out any moment.

    I call this... 'Courage'.

    (I think it applies to guidelines. I like it anyway)
  • Foxtrot_UniformFoxtrot_Uniform Join Date: 2003-06-12 Member: 17328Members
    That's good that's good! Nice. I like how you cropped it, just showing two heads. I sort of suggests that there could be even more of them. Very cool.

    There's actually three heads (one near the top).

    I couldn't make it any bigger because some text was obstructing one of the right-side skulks and there was also a hivesight icon+text right above from where I cropped it.

    edit: left != right <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Face off. The onos looks a bit strange cause I edited out the text in the picture.

    I'm glad you think so. I like faceoff. The marine looks like he's really brave, staring into the face of the onos. Excellent picture. Keep it up. I'd like to see more from you guys, but then again, quantity is the enemy of quality.

    This is my second attempt at getting a thread like this going. Let's keep up the enthusiasm.

    Also, I'm glad you edited out the text. That's exactly what i want.

    1. Its Pulse
    2. WTH, Gamma a bit high or what, almost looks like it was taken IN hammer!

    Lieutenant Daniel Mills makes his way to the beleaguered marines of 5th Company. A tense standoff has held the Frontiersmen at a draw for the past hour, and Mills is one of five elite soldiers from the famed 55th Ariadne Strikers sent in from the Warspite to break the enemy line.

  • Foxtrot_UniformFoxtrot_Uniform Join Date: 2003-06-12 Member: 17328Members
    Neat, Jaeger, but I'm looking for screen shots with a lot less editing. Actually, the only editing should be cropping or taking out text. Nothin more.
  • JaegerJaeger Join Date: 2002-11-28 Member: 10202Members
    I was bored when I put that up, lol. I intended to have a couple more decent vanilla shots, but HL keeps crashing to desktop when I try to take screenies.

    Look closer though, I added the overlay thingie to hide the horrible blurring and resolution. +2 to nub rating <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Little did the fade know, the lerk he had been playing hide and seek with, was standing right behind him.
  • Foxtrot_UniformFoxtrot_Uniform Join Date: 2003-06-12 Member: 17328Members
    I'm speechless, lucid. You've completely missed the point.

    Mind if i ask what point? If you mean that theres no marine... well.. that doesnt seme fair... if thats not it then please explain.


    This picture was actually taken sideways. Since NS now turns you sideways when ur dead and you have no mroe ip's. All i did was get rid of the text on top and bottom, and post it here.
  • Foxtrot_UniformFoxtrot_Uniform Join Date: 2003-06-12 Member: 17328Members
    That's just a picture of a fade with a lerk behind it. I'm looking for really stirring pictures. Dramatic pictures. I'm not saying my pictures are great, but they're examples.
  • LucidRealityLucidReality Join Date: 2003-02-13 Member: 13496Members
    i jsut thought ti was funny how the lerk was staring at the corner.
