Hello.

Here\'s some additional participants. I tried not to take too similar pics to those that have already been posted.

Arena
Death realm 1
Death realm 2
Dungeon 1
Dungeon 2
Hydlaa plaza 1
Hydlaa night 2
Ojaveda 1
Ojaveda night 2
Sewers 1
Sewers 2
Sewers 3

Again, 1024*768 png source files available. All pics were pre-checked with LoaderHunter, they should fit well with the loading screen layout. Some of them are a bit dark, but since that\'s what the in-game areas are like, I didn\'t want to retouch them. The white background of a browser makes a picture seem even darker.

I really like Cherpow\'s dungeon bridge shot.  It says to me \"where the hell is that and how do i get there?\".  I think that\'s what all the screens should \"say\" to the player.

Your spot on there Chris. Screenshots that intrigue people are the key to a successful loading screen

P.S. The webhost that holds my website account where I normally host my pictures has stopped providing free accounts, so any links I made to that website are now dead. Sorry for any inconveniance.

Hey All,

If you update to the latest version of PlaneShift, you will see the winning screenshots are now in-game as per-region loading screens!

Everyone\'s saying they look great!
