    • Graphic Contest!


      This is just something I decided to start for fun. It's a contest for which graphic is the best. First, you submit a graphic you made, then, at a set time, I will judge to see who's was the best. There are four catagorys: Lanscapes, Space images, beginners (For people who have just started making graphics. In this catagory you can post space and land images), and 2D (for 2D land and space images). I will decide which is the most realistic, the most beautiful (more for landscapes), and the most unique in each of those catagorys (But in the beginners and 2D catagory, insted of 2, there will only be 1 winner).The winners will recieve some very cool stuff. The grand prize winner will recieve some even more very cool stuff that I can't say because it's a surprise :p. I will decide on the best graphics on Friday or Saturday. (depends on how much images are posted). So go ahead and post your best graphic! 🙂

      NOTE: You can only post one or two of your images!

    • And how does one go about submitting their images? Are there any restrictions on size of image or file? Are these supposed to be premade graphics (because the judging is only on monday-wednesday, rather soon) or just whatever?

      Depends. I guess if you have a really cool pict ready you might as well post it.

      Just post a link to where your image is.

      I suggest that you would use pre-made graphics. But if you feel you have time you can make one. But they have to be made by you.

      Now start posting your images!

      You can only be in ONE contest! You are already in my EV one, so you can't be in this one. Sorry.

    • Well, I'm fairly new at graphics, but I might consider giving it a try with the new UE ship I'm making in Strata, if for no other reason than it may motivate me to improve.

      I'll make one. But there will only be one winner in that category.

      Title: NGC-1132
      Description: Once home to a secret scientific research and testing station, NGC-1132 is now a quarantined system. A blast and shockwave eminated from the station one day, the cause unknown. An enormous crater in the nearby rock-planet, still glowing blue from the shockwave's impact, gives tribute to the violence of the event. Its strength, though, is not what condemned the system.

      The planet also now crackles with energy ribbons, areas phasing between states of being. Strange clouds linger in the distance, remnants of the shockwave. Two warning buoys were sent, because the first one stopped working. Pictures from ships that cannot detour confirm that the nonfunctional buoy appears to be partially phased out of existance. Further buoys are expected to have to be sent.

      The station is completely lifeless, its fractured hull drifting in orbit of the planet. The only activity seen is the still partially-active system that, apparently, malfunctioned. Nobody alive knows what the researchers were working on.

      Previously seen in the Image Gallery.

      Or, if you won't accept two entries into the same category, here's a landscape:

    • Here's my pic, (it is used in the webstory, Sokaro Divide) I'd like this to be entered as a beginner's category spaceship: (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/ma3/coffeebreak/Krenal_Fighter.gif")http://www.angelfire...nal_Fighter.gif(/url)

      Description: The Krenal Fighter is fast and maneuverable, with three Jilon cannons positioned
      up front. It's the Krenal Republic's main fighter design, and it, like all other Krenal Vessels,
      carries well-developed shields but thin armor. It is fast enough to dodge projectiles like
      rockets, but it carries a good deal of firepower for such a small craft.

      Made in Strata 3D, retouched in Photoshop LE. It's the first ship I've put on the web. I've made other ships, but they all ended up sucking.

    • Can someone give me an address for a good place to set up a website? All the old ones I used are integrating into bigger corporate sites and no longer offer web hosting utils. Thanks...

    • Try (url="http://"http://www.f2s.com")http://www.f2s.com(/url)

      It's free, fast, no add webspace. An excellent choice for web hosting.
