    I often go through the game taking "photos" of interesting events and the scenery.

    One of my favourites is the first fight against Jonny in Spellhold. I love my screenshot of my Blade killing the clone of himself with the Drinker longsword and it is sucking out the clone's life...

    As for scenery one of my favorties is the Tree of Life before the stairs open.

    [​IMG] My friend used Ctrl+L to make the effects pop-up and made a gameshow with them. It was the PC V Aerie, aerie lost.

    I have got a sceenshot of Jan standing behind a skulltrap which looks funny as you can't see his head behind it. And another one I used to trick a friend - saying there was a quest where the sun fell from the sky. It was the spell effect where there is a globe around you, use the effect lots of time in the same place and you get the fallen sun!.

    I hacked the familiar files so that Dragons answered your call. I made a Screenshot as you are talking with your red dragon pet. The choices were:

    How it goes down there?
    (pet and play)
    Give me all things you pickpocketed.
    Come, I want to place you in my pack where it is a bit safer.

    Sadly, it was rejected here, because it contains a bit of cheating. So it goes.

    8people. I am really confused by your wording. I don't know what you mean by ctrl+L. Will you always get the crazy visuals from the spell effects?

    Tal.

    Are you asking me? I thought that these of my shots were not to the required standards as the SP page outlines. I do have some others though.

    BTW, what is your best screenshot Tal?

    ? How do your screenshots deviate from the screenshots submission guidelines on SP? Any good shot can be SoTW.

    As for my best screenshot, I doubt I really have a single one. I took around 200-300 screenshots during my playing of BG2 for use with the screenshot gallery, so it'd be a bit hard to decide. :)

    The are a number of cool ones up on SP that I made. (IMHO anyway.)

    Well, of course it would have to be one of mine from NWN!

    I think I like the one where I'm surrounded by Fire Giants with their giant flaming swords... :)

    [​IMG] There's a screenshot of the week on the front page of SP, above the poll. Screenshots of every game are in the Screenshots subsection of each game.

    I have over 400 screenshots, most of which are funny. I have a habit of screenshoting all the banters I see...

    I like one that I had where I'm playing Ascension. There's two Comets and two Dragon's Breath in the Air together with a couple of more spells.

    There's Irenicus with all his protections, Sarevok with his sword raised, the Slayer, the two Solars dancing around and also Bodhi doing nothing.

    It looks so cool with all those effects and characters at the same time.

    I have two when my f/m fights Kangaxx. One when the demilich enters berserk and when he runs. Pretty cool I thought. Pretty much of a hell also as Kangaxx is pretty fast as demilich, and also have a pretty good regeneration-rate. I despaired when my prot. from magic scroll's duration faltered.
