Ohh! Ohh! Look at this! Ohh! Ohh!



Maybe I should start a contest on who can do the most p1mpin' FS battle pic (Dark, you can't participate, you're too good! :-P) and the winner wins:

Benstein's Money!

oops... umm try this:

Absolutely nothing!
(Save an IOU from Wildwolf about a cookie of course!)

Nice pics!

Dark, what program do you use to make those pics? Truespace 4.0?

Another question. I have Truespace 3.something. I convert the .pofs files to .cobs so I can look at them in TS. But the textures doesn't work. I have tried renaming the textures to .bmp files. But that doesn't work.

Dark is disqualified because his pic doesn't really show that a battle of some kind is taking place

As a result I can win by shear volume!

No, those drones where just there to intimidate you, if it's battles you want, better dig out the [url="http://descent.telefragged.com/wallpapers/battlese_800.jpg"]classic[/url]

And I think I deserve to win since I did people the favour of presenting my image in a hypertext link format

What do you guys think this is, 'Who's line is it anyway?' where the score doesn't matter but we keep it anyway? Come on! I don't look like Drew Carey!

Keep those pics comin' we're talkin' about Benstein's money here! (and more importantly Wildwolf's cookie!)

Ace in your first pic the tip of the engine flame is black instead of the nebula behind.

BTW Dark those drones are awesome.

The Toloman class will live on! The Morgain will avenge her! (yep, and you'll be seduced by the Scythes of Twilight's CO as they fire the main guns! )

Also on the note of the engine flare being black, it's because I've slapped these images together in 5 minutes :-P (unlike Plasma's caretaking work!)

The Apollo/Anubis chase thingy was Paint Shop Pro 4, the Athena thing was PSP5 with a little Photoshop, everything else was PSP5, and tonight I downloaded PSP6 so everything in the future will probably be that.
