No prob, anyone who wants one of my animated sigs, get me some screenshots of each of your characters that you want featured, preferably against a fairly uniform background (makes it easier to cut them out -- the far wall inside the the guild hall with it's fairly smooth orangish/brown color works pretty good), and some idea of what text you would like to accompany each, if any. Give me some idea what you'd like to see. Feel free to take a look at my signatures page for some ideas, or suggest something new. If you want a blinking avatar, you need to get a series of screenshots of your character in about four or more different stages of blinking from barely started to completely closed eyes (the more, the better, although note that some characters never do close their eyes completely). Also I'll try to adventure with you at least once and get some good action shots. Like I said, gimme a yell in-game, especially if Sunday rolls around and we still haven't hooked up. By the way, its not a bad idea to pump your resolution up to 1600x1200 (or better if your monitor can handle it) and with antialiasing at the max for a beauty shot or two. Also, some great beauty shots come from cinematics, particularly if you're the party leader. The Great Northern Wall mission is one of the best for a great closeup, although it sometimes has problems with characters that are very short or very tall... |

That is cool. Thanks Dream for again reminding me I have no artistic talent. And no sig. Somebody give this man a sig. Actually there are a few people that still have no sigs. Hey people without sigs, there are very talented members here who can make you a wonderful sig or avatar. I'm not one of them. One just has to ask real polite like and like magic something will appear. I have two beautiful sigs made by Inda, a neat little BGN badge made by Dreamsmith, and an avatar provided by the Morbid. |

And on that note, here is a request to you artistically talented people out there: Can you make a sig for me? You can see just below here that I don't really have any talent in this... of course, I also only really have MS Paint to work with. I have a topic of screenshots here for you to pull pics from: bgnguild.proboards36.com/index.cgi?board=photo&action=display&thread=1111464563and now for a slightly off-topic question: Can anyone point me in the direction of some (preferably free, or at least not too expensive) software for graphic editing |

Black yoru thumbnails wouldnt allow me to go to your fullsize char pics so I made somethign a tad different. It doesnt have your char in it but I think its really artistic this way. If you like cool if not no biggie just something for you.  |

wow... Magis, I am truly impressed. I like that and will proceed to put that in my sig as soon as finish this message.
part of the reason I am impressed is that was faster than I expected a response...
also, I fixed the links in my screenshot topic.

I know your on hiatus fate so I made a little present for when you get back. I was just playing Doom 3 in the dark with my surround sound up so the mood is a little dark but fun I think.  |

I could really use a signature, but I'm kinda bad with photoshop ect.  And I guess this thread is for BGN signatures only... |

Well just now thought to get a sig made and If anyone needs a screen of me I need to beat Ice caves of sorrow so you could get one there. Also I have a warrior that needs nolani so I could get a screen for him there. I have a monk but I'm not sure I'll keep him can't really get a feel for him so don't worry about him

lol yes anyone can send them to the gmail address in my profile. Send me the name of the character (and your forum name if different) and also one or two words that you feel embodies your character (e.g. brave, strong, silent, sexy, death, etc...) I won't get them done in 1 day but with the above information it will help speed it along a lot! |

Here's a dumb question: how does one take a screen shot?

Post by Aerynrox on Jul 11, 2005 9:54:45 GMT -5
Hi Aeron, All you have to do is hit the 'print screen' button on your keyboard. Recently, I heard that if you hold down 'shift' while you do so, it will clear all of the HUD display items during the shot. I haven't tested that yet, but it would be really cool if that works. PS - When the heck are we gonna quest together? |

As for questing, whenever my fiance and I get our darn wedding invitations out. It's the project that's taken over our lives!!! Printing, cutting, glueing, writing almost every night until midnight=not fun. I wish I could fast forward until the wedding day. |

Yes you hold Shift to drop the hud whilst pressing Print Screen for screen shots Most games work that way  Frost Gate is a good map for screenshot taking. Tal |

Okay - clearly I am clueless (a state of being I am growing used to) since my signature is not working correctly. I copied the URL into the signature section of my profile. Was that the wrong thing to do?  |

Add ![]() start of the line then [/IMG] at the end. That should fix it. |

it is a very nice sig -- although will you please just use one or the other---together they take up a lot of screen space. 
Frost Gate is a good map for screenshot taking.
