Just stunning :)
Assuming you didn't upload that last screenshot in a smaller size by choice, it looks like imgur was blowing them up a bit too which will have created some extra pixelation on top of things. Your previous screenshots were great too but there's a big difference in image quality there. Great result I'd say (and no prob!).

and good eyes, Sleepy ^^. 2012/13 have been amazing for game releases that's for sure, still lots more to come as well :D

I will admit i played with effects on both the uploads from minus. And minus also made them smaller by a lot. The originals are 1440x856

hmm not sure why it has made them smaller tbh, can't see a resizing setting anywhere. All of my uploads are 1920x1080, even have a couple of 2560x1440 screenshots in there too.

[Edit] Ahh, it seems when you use the "Edit image" function to add effects and what not it resizes the image in the process. Doesn't look to be a way to edit them whilst retaining the original size by the looks of it but all of my screenshots are untouched so I've never used that feature before. Tried it out on the FC3 screenshot and it resized it from 1920x1080 to 800x450. You can use the "resize" setting whilst in edit mode to resize the picture but after having a play about with that it will go smaller but no way to size it back up to 1080, which is a shame really as there seem to be some nice filters on there. You'll probably have to use Photoshop or something if you want to play about with the effects whilst keeping the image size in which case. Or just leaving them untouched like mine. That is unless the shrinkage doesn't bother you ofc :)

No worries lol. The forums could do really with a thumbnail feature tbh heh. That being said there *is* a way to force them, at least kind of.

The usual code:

Code: Select all

[img]http://i1.minus.com/ibcnIdtARNBAzJ.png[/img]
Will just slap the full sized image on the page and take up the whole screen in the process but if you wrap it in tags like this instead:

Code: Select all

[url=http://i1.minus.com/ibcnIdtARNBAzJ.png][img]http://i1.minus.com/ibcnIdtARNBAzJ.png[/img][/url]
It will still load the full image when you view the thread but they will display much smaller. You can then click each one to view them in full like:
Image

Quite handy when you have some big images to post up :)

Stunning as always!

Great shots!. I'm not even a fan of the genre usually but there's no denying that it's one pretty looking game. Lots of possibilities for screenshots around every turn I bet ^^
- I've just added them to the EvE gallery, Anny. Saves you doing it over the weekend mate. Tis no bother :thumb:

Alrighty then! ^w^

hmm...this one is nice. its definitely one of the more eerie wrecks in the game. My first experience with these wrecks was a spooky one. I was exploring hidden sites and came across a cloud of dust in one of them and as I got closer I started seeing the outlines of the wreck. My mind being what it is I instinctively cut my engines and hit the cloak thinking it was a danger.

I realized while floating around that theres a few things about Eve i never showed..such as the lovely interface or characters. After all we pilots are not faceless.

Firstly...the Interface!

And secondly...god my character looks fat but..Characters!

Last ones for a bit since I'm kinda flooding this section.

Space is a weird thing to think about cuz it seems dark but its lit by a possibly infinite amount of suns. Deep stuff

This is Concord...Pirates worst enemy and feared by the rest. The empires may hold territory in High Security but these guys are the ones who break your toys when you step outta line.

A beastly trailer from CCP. Showcases all three of CCPs games, EVE, Dust, and Valkyrie
Eventually I may be able to start bringing in Dust 514 screens. I'm not sure about Valkyrie since its an Oculous Rift game and those things are expensive.

Win gave me that late last week. Truly does look stunning.

CCP are really really good at making trailers. They market their game so well!
