Base Building Committee Event!

Okay, let me rephrase that : what element did you use to create those stacked floating stones?

this issue of my screen-caps not working has me baffled. Iv'e tried the print-screen to a graphics editing program, but it captures entirely too much of what I don't need.

Iv'e troubleshot this thing for what, 4 days now?

with no response from tech support on this issue and no sight of anything being done about it, I guess I wasn't meant to enter the contest.

that bums me out. I spent a good 24 hrs building something in the hopes that my screen-cap issue would be resolved.

Whatever.

update!

I found the folder all my screenies were hiding in. I had a shortcut on my desktop from the old /cityofheroes/screenshots, and appearantly thats not where the screenies go now.

After bashing my skull I found this directory, /programfiles/ncsoft/cityofheroes/screenshots

-which was hidden- for some reason.

so after a unhide I have everything back to ab normal and will be working on getting this boat out of the harbor.

this is just a rough idea of what im going for, i have some better things in the works, but I think it's a good start. this is not an entry, so more to come.

this is closer to what I'm going for, this is still in a very rough draft, but I think the finished product will be a worthy entry.




I have alot of RL issues eating up my time, and I'm trying to get done what I can when I can, so please be patient.

News Flash! This just in: Avatea has promised costume codes for the top 3 entries and a gold in-game title for the winner! (Actual title to be announced)

In light of these new developments we will be extending the Avatar Contest to the end of July so get going people! Let's see what your devious and creative minds can come up with!

this is one I would have liked to use, however, the resizing makes it all wargarbled, but anyway...

This is my first entry, hope this works good enough

Awesome job, Mr. H.

Clean and simple with some clever lighting.
And now I am kicking myself for not thinking of incorporating the letters somehow. lol

.

thanks Kat That was the first thing that poped into my scattered little brain was , Oh! letters! My next challenge: learning to spell!

edit: eventually I'll learn to tie my own shoes then I'll be all set!

Finally decided to grab a 3rd screenshot out of my base to enter for this contest.

Here's the full sized image:


And here's the 100x100 Forum Avatar I made from it after saturating colors and increasing the exposure to make everything clearer (because shrinking the image makes everything too dark):





Subtextual commentary on the notion that Base Builders aspire to an Arcane Resurrection on top of the Planet over the Bonfire of Dev Priorities is ... um ... uh ... purely coincidental ...? "

It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

Logo submission:


And the original screenshot:

Ok...U Dare took my idea lol. However he got there first so more power to him. (Mine would have been different colors but his translates into an avatar better = good for him).

This is my first entry.

And my second entry.

This is my third and last entry.

I guess I can chime into this one since I have some unused rooms currently. Here is my first submission.

And BTW Eldormain, I have always been impressed to finally see an old Gatchaman signal icon for a avatar. Nice tribute to Tatsunoko.
