Roja Report post Posted June 16, 2006 Sorry I forgot to do SSOTW last week guys! Time goes by so fast..it was Aislinn who reminded me that I forgot on Tuesday I think Anyway, this week you will need to post your best shot that has some pretty flowers in it Basically a nice beautiful scenery shot. There can be as many players in the shot as you want, it doesn't matter. But the focus is on the flora. Guidlines: The FULL EL window has to be showing. It's alright if you have your whole desktop there, i can always crop it. And try to save them at somewhat high resolution, so you dont get crappy artefacts. (i will edit/optimize them) 1. The whole interface must be present, and no alterations to the shots are allowed. Everything in the shot must be from the Official game release. 2. The quality must be good enough that I can use. Shots that are too small(less than 800 x 600) are also not useable. Shots that were saved with low jpg or gif compression also are not good-in fact don't use gif's at all. the PNG or BMP formats are the best for quality, but a higher res JPG is fine too! 3. The shots shouldn't have any "bugs" in them. For example, there are some 3d objects that when you put light on them when it's night time or inside a house, they look black or relly really dark when they should reflect the light. These are object bugs, and are ugly and should not be shown in a screenshot. They will be fixed eventually. Another example has to do with the shadows. The shadows in the game aren't perfect, but sometime they look a real mess or just really really strange like upside down or something. The shadows should be turned on in your screenshots, but they should look decent, not weird or totally ugly. 4. You should try to get a nicely detailed scene. If one quarter of the shot is filled with a blank ground tile in the foreground, then most likely it's not very interesting to look at and I wouldn't choose it. I guess there can be some exceptions to this but it's hard to say what they are. 5. Try to get "natural" shots. Shots that have everyone lined up in their plate mail aren't so great. I like to have diversity in the different landscapes and players in the shot, like wear different clothes, get a few players in the shots-although it can have just you too, that's fine. 6. Concerning text, it's ok to have some chat messages on the screen as long as nothing bad is said and there's not too much covering the screen. It's also just fine to have name tags, health bars, etc. turned on-it's also fine to turn them off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does this mean I can't submit screenshots that I took with ttl's client? As long as the interface looks like the original and there's no other differences it's ok. Ttlanhils might have the new chat tabs, that's ok too since they'll be in the update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
