We are having a Competition for the best screenshot.
anyone can post 3 screenshots, and only 3
there will be several categories:
Best TW Screen
a. Best Battle Screen MTW
b. Best Battle Screen STW
c. Most Scenic Screen MTW
d. Most Scenic Screen STW
e. Best Siege Screen MTW
the best TW screen will be taken from the winners of the other categories.
For each pic, you must state which of the 5 categories it is to fall into.
After a week or two of gathering screenshots, we will then close the thread, and open up respective voting threads. After a week of votes, the first group of winners will be announced, and then the top 2 places for each will go into the final category of best TW screen.
So get snapping, and post away.
You may enter here (http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=24;t=12244;st=50) and if you need assistance getting your screenies hosted, the Org can help you in that regard too: here (http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=24;t=10398)
The Contest will end on Thursday, December 4 at 5:00 PM United Kingdom time.
Good luck and get posting http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smokin.gif

that's actually my screenshot - I made it and someone else has apparently watermarked it. I have the original photoshop (still with the layers intact) and remember posting it this forum at least two years ago.

I distinctly remember that, Lord Krazy posted some screenies of STW units on an MTW battlefield in the same thread. It would have been around 12/01.

The chances of you making this are very slim because I took the screenshot myself. I *have* made this, because it was made for a photoshop competition on another forum, and it was posted june 13, 2003. I'll try to find its original photoshop file: it was a Germans vs Hungarians battle (I was playing Germans, and defending). You're probably right about you having the same idea earlier, but I did not know because I hadn't seen your picture before I made it.
The ATAT and TIEs were plucked from images.google.com, so I guess it looks quite similar. The Deathstar needed some work because the thing was very aliased when I resized it. In any case, please do dig up your own picture, because I'm absolutely sure it's not the same.

i suppose that's the nature of the internet. say hi to lowtax for me. i was part of that same forum once, so I'll have to go back to my archives, and see what difference there is.

Ok this is turning into a shitslinging contest real quick, and I did not came here for drama. I have found the .psd and NO I DID NOT HAXOR YOUR IP BROADCASTING PC. This must be the .psd you're talking about (with all the layers intact):

whoops, you are so right and I am so wrong Mr. Video Game Mix-up posted article, Sir.
Mine has the At-At going the other way, and has STW troops.
(your posted desktop image is really just gilding the lily).
Good work, carry on, I will now slink away and deny this ever happened
