You've got to think crazy, of course, because you only get innovation by refining insanity. - Jason Jones

A month or so ago i started a thread suggesting the idea that maybe we would be able to upload some game videos to the website, or to a group. That idea after lots of thought...still sounds like a good idea. Yesterday i was thinking, lets not do videos, that could get messy. I got to thinking why wouldn't we be able to upload screenshots from replays that we watch? I know that test drive unlimited allows you to upload still shots from their game to one of their websites. I am wondering if being able to do that with halo 3 saved films would be worth the time and effort.

Personally I believe it would be kind of cool, maybe limit the number of photos able to upload, but able to change which photos you upload.

We WILL be able to do this for Halo 3. It was in the Game Informer article, and somewhere else I don't remember.

Apparently he's right. I did a quick search and came up with this. It's at the end of the second paragraph.

Very nice, what can i say great minds think alike! I hope there is a limit to the number of images uploaded to the site, I would hate to see space wasted on someone who uploads a hundred pictures of nothing but them teabagging someone else.

Who would do such a thing?

"lololololololol" *Cough*

It seems like a neat feature, good thinking Scruss (er, and Bungie).

I'm really looking forward to this, and I must say I'm very impressed by the level of integration this site has with the games - I especially like the Gameviewer being integrated into the stats pages as opposed to free-floating, as it was in the New Hotness.

Hmmm, Frankie posted this on NeoGAF:
It's not a cutscene, it's a carefuly posed screenshot from Campaign. You can carefully pose and take your own screenshots in Campaign, in the game, in Sept 25th. You can recreate this pose exactly.If I can upload personal screenshots (or gameplay videos) to Bungie.net come September 25th, I might have to man-hug you and your team Achronos. I've dreamed of doing this without the hassle of a capture card.

That gives new meaning to "pics, or it didn't happen." If nothing else, no more bragging about some crazy trick without any sort of evidence.

Me too. Capture cards are annoying, I'm sure I won't be the only one jumping if that happens.

Ok, Achronos has made me very excited now. I'm going to do what Cartman did on South Park and freeze myself until it's September 25th. Just as long as nobody forgets me (*cough*Butters*cough*prikk*cough*).

I am listening. So if we are able to at least upload images to the site, maybe we can use those images as avatars (scaled down of course), use them for group banners (themes). In an earlier post I made a few months ago i was posing the possibility of being able to upload somehow the game videos we get from mp or single player to the site or to a group of our choice. Maybe that is an option after all. I am excited more than ever now.

Achronos I will do the truffle shuffle if you tell us what we are in for. :)

Maybe there will be an online coop, one player can run around and take snapshots of the chief while the other character poses. I know it sounds...well it sounds nothing like halo but who cares what it sounds like. After a player snaps a picture of the other player they can send that picture to the player being "pictured". Did that confuse anyone else?

Not at all...

I'm pretty interested to see what Bungie has in store for this idea. Achronos's little statement only has me even more curious. Damn you.

Hey Achronos, I'll send you nekkid pics of stosh for some juicy info :P. Come on, I know you have been trying to get your hands on these juicy pics. Just a wee bit more? ;)

As for this, I would love video streaming. That would make Capture Cards useless, thankfully. Damn you Achronos and your secrecy, damn you!

Just give me community interaction (or surpass it) with the game like they did in the Forza 2 community, and I'll be a happy camper.

Edit: On that note.... Can we get a custom spartan/elite editor with paint and and an arse load of options for customization, and then auction them off!?
