While I have no problem sending candidates via e-mail, I don't view my current collection of screenies as beening considered worthy as a SoTW since I've only recently started taking screenshots.

The "Fire it up" screenie was a lucky shot in the middle of a firefight with a Brig. It wasn't 'til I looked at the screenshot folder and found that one sitting in there. But if I can come up with any future screenies that show promise I'll submit them as contenders.

Only to remove the pointer, it would turn out that the best muzzle flash would be on the one I forgot to move the mouse pointer off screen. :roll:

I don't know why but all those screen shots just make me feel good. Those are some really great shots. I guess it's the wanna-be-photographer in each of us that bring these things to the people.

That said, here's one of mine...

I call it "Arriving Dignitaries". It was an "all officers to the docking bay" for a friendly welcome to our new Marines that were signing on for new few missions. Quite a turnout I might add. Although the XO had to stay on the bridge (for safety purposes, bridge must at all times have at least one executive officer on board at all times).

I love this thread. There are so many great shots in here. Thanks to everyone :).

I just started this game recently, and I'm still doing taxi missions. As my last attempt in this sector didn't end too well, I bought something else. I just liked the weird colors on this one:
