To J Dosh: I like it, sorta hard to see what's going on, but it cool.

To Vaati999: I like yours too, more of a solo shot, cool explosion.

To both: yours are both cool, but your submissions remind me of the others, but thats okay, in fact one of you could win.

Question: how to you like mine?

P.S. have you seen the new ODST background on this site yet?

To Kewwe: i'm not good at taking screenshots, however lately i've been on a roll of taking good ones, maybe i'm getting better.

Whoa, that's an intense one, how did you do that? Even though its still a guy with some kind of explosion in the background, It looks really cool, you have a shot at winning.

Thanks! I'm not very good at taking screen shots, though I've been told I am.
I really appreciate you saying that. I think your picture has a much greater chance of winning than mine. Oh, to answer your question. I stacked a bunch of shield doors and used color effects.

Really? Why?

  • 06.01.2009 12:59 PM PDT

Art is open to quite a bit of interpretation, so it really boils down to the tastes of those choosing the winner. The question is, what exactly does Bungie mean by "art"? Should it look awesome, convey a message, or be something that nobody has done/seen? In the end, we just have to choose what we think is best and run with it.

For instance, my screenshot. I'm a comic book fan, and I love the it when a character is shown as a silhouette, with few details conveyed, so I tried to pull that off. The sword in the back represents the cutthroat nature of the matchmaking community.

Looks more like something I would want to frame. It looks more "Artsy"
Though I'm still confident.

shadowj17 when i said everyone is doing backgrounds i ment that most of the people on this fourm are showing pictures of levels

Yes I do realize art is really depending on how you view it, and i'm not Bungie. But, people who did a screenshot like yours, or one with a spartan and explosion in it, are up to a lot of competition. Unlike mine, not too many people have done ones similar to mine. However, Bungie accepts all types of screenshots as winners, galmour, neat, violent, creative, etc. I've got to admit, I like yours Rex, its pretty cool, but i'm sure you realize you're up to a lot of competition in your screenshot category. I'm of course up to some too, but not as much. The thing everyone has got to do is prepare for disappointment . I'd also like to know if Bungie will be able to recognize the symbols in your picture.

To Vaati: Well of course, every map, campaign or multiplayer, is a picture from a level. Where else are you supposed to take one from? Your own house? Or do i not understand you?

To Halo 3 is leet: Thank you, i was doing exactly what bungie wanted, making something worthy of art. Or trying to anyways...


OH snap, i just double posted, YAR!!!! Sorry everyone, i had a brain fart.

I like yours too, how did you do it?

( maybe i already said i liked yours i dont know )

I remember you from the team control contest.....


Ya know there's this great quote in my forum signature, it goes like this: "For every winner, there are dozens of losers. Odds are you're one of them."

I love that quote, it says to me, i'm most likely going to lose this competition, because i suck. The quote works great for your self esteem.

I honestly did by experimenting with this one spot. I would tell you how I got it, but I dont want copycats.
