For those photograph-savvy MMORPG gamers participating in Blizzard's highly celebrated World of Warcraft,
Thaddeus Loenbrough - esteemed Orcish photographer and Royal
Photographic Society of Azeroth (RPSA) Founder - wants your best
screenshots from the game to help promote and nurture the art of
photography throughout the world of Azeroth.
This is the new
promotion Blizzard has posted on its website for players who are
interested on submitting original screenshots from their WoW experience.
Bornakk, a Blizzard poster on the WoW forums
has invited players to check out the new Screenshot Submission Form and
contribute their most original screenshots for the site. This is in line with the new guides that Blizzard will be releasing in the future.
Images
should be in JPEG format and must be less than two MB in size. It is also
recommended that any interface and chat box text is turned off. If you
wish to add any chat to the screenshots, it's better to use in-game
chat bubbles rather than modifying any of the content using any image
editors. You can check out the list of screenshot topics that they need the most on the submissions page. Blizzard also included a list of banned topics that would make inappropriate subjects for submission.
Here's a short list of the said banned topics:
- Sexually explicit and / or suggestive themes and images, or references to sexual orientation, or any content that a reasonable person would find inappropriate or obscene
- Areas that are off-limits or that are only accessible by means of an exploit
- References to smoking or drug use
- Any references to suicide
- Smiley faces or any other designs created with corpses, smoke, etc.
- Weddings
- The Dark Portal
- Strange Graphical Bugs
- Characters standing in the "green transporter" in Hellfire Citadel
- Any of the Naaru, particularly A'dal in the middle of Shattrath City
- Characters running away from or dying to Fel Reavers
- Lady Sylvanas, particularly from the quest reward that features her singing
- Jokes about obscure TV shows or movies that most people won't get
- Characters laying with each other in beds
- Characters sitting in a catapult
- Characters sitting/swimming in a pool or taking a bath
- Characters sitting on any throne
- Characters in front of the moon/sunset
- Characters inside of the mouth of a monster
- Characters standing on the bow of a boat, "Titanic"-style
- Animals or critters polymorphed into sheep
- Characters laying down in coffins
- Dead characters overlapping each other as the main subject
- The Stormwind throne room and/or Onyxia key quest event
- Running from a dinosaur in Un'Goro Crater
Aside from that, get that "Print Screen" trigger finger of yours ready and see if your screenshot is worthy to be included in the pages of the RPSA. Budding paparazzis can take a look at the Submission Screenshot Form through the via link below.
