    Are EB Team members allowed to participate? I would secretly hope one would <<accidentally>> post an EBII screenshot.

    No, we are not, but we have released many "accidents" in our previews. :)

    I think Gustave once 'accidentally' posted in an epic battle scene from an EBII battle. Needless to say it wasn't fair as that post would have won the competition

    Who knows, maybe an accident will occur soon, very soon.....
    Then the July(?) screenshot competition will find a winner!
    And we will need ambulances and all available TAXIS to transfer the fans to the hospital.

    And there were plenty of those in the same battle. Yes people, playing MP WILL get you better screens!

    To those getting screens in campaign, play with minimal UI, when you take the screen, press pause and then pres F5 F6 and F7 annoying UI will dissapear.

    Yes, and in Fraps, uncheck the "include frame rate overlay" option to avoid the yellow numbers.

    That's really the one thing bad about your picture. Well done!

    Tip: Use the F5 and F7 buttons to toggle hiding of the UI (at least if you have 'minimal UI' selected. I don't know if it works with the standard UI).

    EDIT: Whoops, Lazy O already said that. This is what happens when you don't read the thread.

    I'll post my submission soon.

    Oh, it was quite an easy decision, I assure you! I knew that if you complained, I could always compensate you with this picture.
