    [​IMG] Hello folks.

    Since the poll we had running on the front page indicated that most of you think we should start displaying game screenshots submitted by the you, the players, I will now start collecting screenshots to be posted on the front page.

    There are a few important rules though:

    1. One person can only send me up to 5 screenshots of any game per week. They won't be used one after another, but will be stored and used at a later time.

    2. The games you can send us screenshots from are the games we cover: any Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment, and later, Pool of Radiance and Neverwinter Nights.

    3. Send us stuff that looks good like dragon victories, cool spell effects, tough fights, funny dialogue and similar. No inventory shots, game interface shots, hacked characters in action etc.

    4. Don't send us BMP files or any other file formats that take too much space. JPG is preferred, at 800x600 resolution. The file size should be up to around 200kb per screenshot. (And that's very good quality, it can be lower, just not so much that it's so fuzzy you can't see anything anymore.)

    5. Write a short description of each screenshot you are sending me, or a comment you would like to see displayed along with the screenshot.

    WARNING: IF YOU SEND ME ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT COMPLY TO THESE RULES (WHICH I AM SURE YOU HAVE CAREFULLY READ), I WILL NEITHER POST IT, NOR REPLY TO YOUR MAIL. I WILL PROBABLY PUT YOUR E-MAIL IN THE SPAM FOLDER TOO, AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS...

    I hope I wrote that in big enough letters. Seriously, I get enough mail without having to read through tons of mail that does not comply to the specifics I listed here.

    Mail the screenshots to sorcerer -AT- sorcerers.net and put SotW or Screenshot of the Week in the topic.

    Thanks!

    Sure you don't want all the spam I get redirected to your e-mail? :D
    Not to mention that even if I wanted Diablo screenshots, I made plenty on my own when I still bothered playing it.

    Anyway I will play BG1 again now, and I will (if I remember) create some nice, humorous, amazing or whatever screenshots for you.
