Welcome to the esteemed home page of the Rogues Gallery of the Galactic Empire . Our purpose and stated aim is to promote and nurture the art of photography throughout the world of Empire at War. In EaW, snapping a photograph is as easy as hitting the "Print Screen" key. You may use the form below to submit your screenshots for review and possible use on Empireatwar.net web site. The file must be a JPEG and be less than 2 MB in size.
Screenshot Tips:
- Use the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard to take a screenshot in-game. Your screenshot will appear in your Lucasarts/Petroglyph directory in the /Screenshots/ subdirectory.
- Unless the interface some how directly ties to what you're trying to show off in your screenshot, turn it off before snapping the shot. To do this press Alt-Z.
- Make sure there is no profanity or otherwise questionable chat content onscreen before taking your shot. Screenshots that contain any questionable chat content will not be selected for display.
- When taking screenshots of large groups, for clarity, turn off player names. To do this, open up the "Interface Options" and turn off player names.
- Try turning up your graphics settings before taking the screenshot. Increase your resolution and maximize the detail settings to assure that your shot is the best it can be! Even if your computer cannot support continuous play at these settings, you can always revert to your previous settings after you take your shot.
- Convert your file into a .JPEG, but use one of the high quality settings. Irfanview is a good freeware utility for converting your .TGA files (or .PDF files) to .JPG files. Don't over compress your screenshot. Screenshots submitted with abundant compression artifacts will not be accepted.
- Don't submit your entire screenshot folder. Choose your best shots and submit those!
- Funny shots are good, but make sure the content is appropriate for the audience of the site.
- Screenshots that are heavily edited using a graphics program will not be accepted.
- Please check your screenshot caption for spelling and grammatical errors. We don't have the resources to edit each caption, so your screenshot may be rejected or the caption may be removed if it doesn't meet our quality standards.
