Monthly competitions submission thread

After seeing that people are loading their previews in png format, I think on my next submission I will start using png rather than jpeg for the preview, they show better detail and the colours don't get washed out (especially the reds, oranges and browns). I have always used jpeg to keep the file size down and download time down. I was going to load my preview this month in png format, but it was about a meg in size, the jpeg was only 80K.

Is there any policy on this, I guess the fact that I would be using up my download allocation may be the other determining factor.
 
Upon Flamand's request :p

This is essentially a color conversion and C&P.

I think it should be mentioned that it is that though; some people do not have the original screen infront of them (btw you did, i was noting V's vicious vacancy spot in the title of your submission, where it would have been mentioned) ;)

V aside though, good work :)
 
Like the previous one, which was about FF.
I suspect it is held once every more months precicely because it has a theme, and so less people are likely to produce something for it.
 
so if I submit my space marine leaderhead for this month, it's eligible for LH of the month award and the overall sci-fi theme award?

I really think you should enter the spearman instead, seeing as how it was all your animation, or at least give partial credit to Plotinus for the swordsman animations.

The competiton is for a 256 colour pcx, not for a 24 bit colour picture, your preview is 24 bit (65536 colours) and is not fair to others that are posting ingame shots. I would say that it is fair to post a png in 16 bit (256 colour), but not 24 bit (65536 colour).

Sorry, but I feel that the previews should be for how they will appear in the game, could you post an ingame preview, perhaps with inside the wonder window.

Thanks for reminding me. I forgot to do the conversion earlier. :)

New preview is up.

EDIT: On second thought, I'd like to have my submission withdrawn. I'll submit something else next month, possibly a themed entry since I'd like to try my hand at something unusual. ;)
