    I've a batch of photos ready for the competition, pick a prize (custom title seems like a good idea ;)) and start the compo thread already..

    Here's every mob in the undead spiral in Razorfen Downs steamrolling us yesterday:

    And here's me fishing off the edge of a giant cliff:

    I dont think graphics cards would make that much difference esp since we'll have to Jpg them for compression.

    I'll give the winner a new tagline of their choosing and an avatar. Shortstack says he'll sponsor a card (thanks) so during the week I'll create somewhere that we can post them.

    Hit Print Screen in game and it will save a screenshot to the Screenshots directory in your WoW install folder. (Alt-z toggles the interface away)

    How should we go about organising this? I think having people pick a set number (10 say) of pics and present them as some kind of entry into a competition might be fun.
    Should I create a sub forum or we could use Photopost or something else entirely.

    Id say maybe pick 5 of your best and post them, tbh 10 might be a bit too many


  • Registered Users Posts: 998 ✭✭✭zekiel


    Yeh I'd agree with 5 as I think 10 might be slightly overkill.

    A temporary sub forum might be best to make it simple for people.
    Perhaps the judges could then post there decisions with each entry having there own thread. :D

    Then again somebody might have a more simple idea.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,118 ✭✭✭LoBo


    Everyone post (up to) 5 in a COMPETITION thread. Judge shortlists top 10 images. New thread with top 10 in one place for judging.

    Ta-da :)


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    5! Jeeez... it will be tough to pick 5. I suppose since theres feck all prize anyway, I can just post the rest of my photographic masterpieces here anyway :)

    I'll create a subforum and everyone post a thread with one pic per entry and a short piece explaining what it is, why you like it, how you got it etc...

    DeV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing


    Yeah but who decides who judges them? What if we get a corrupt judge taking kickbacks or predjudiced against the night elves??


  • Registered Users Posts: 598 ✭✭✭[DF]Lenny


    How about a 2nd prize for best caption and screenie..?

    It's the beards.


    How about, create a subforum then anyone who wishes to enter creates a thread in that forum entitled "Username's entries". They can post up to 5 pictures in their thread and when the time is up a judge goes over them and puts up a poll of the best 10.
