Before I post my entry, I have a few questions:

1. Do beta pictures count? (I got an interesting one from phase 1)

2. Is it ok if I have a little bit of text in the way of the image due to chat messages?

Thanks in advance!

In order to be as fair as possible, lets keep this to the public release. There are things that were in the beta testing phase that never made it to the open server.

As for the text on the image, if you hit f12 you will remove all UI or user interface from the screen, allowing for a clean screen shot.

Thanks for asking!

I picked one from "Remi's Caribbean Adventure, Part I" (Posted in screenshots):



Caption: "HINT: Don't pet the scorpions!"


ALSO, notice the green for March spirit!

Well, I guess they always say, "Keep your head in the game!" Or, maybe he just forgot his green hair and didn't want to get pinched...

(NOTE: This is not from beta, but it uses a floating navy bug I encountered at Fuego some time ago.)

My question is, I did a close-up on something, and I was wondering, are we able to post both the close-up, and the original? It's the same picture in a way, but one is zoomed up to get a better look.

As long as both entries are in the same post and the caption explains why both pictures are needed.

Yes, If you feel the need to change your caption you can do so as long as you do before the last day for submissions. The staff will still need time to review and make the selections.

Thanks!
