*thumbsup* That's what I wanna hear. Glad you like it, the scanning and editing was a pain lol (hope I did it right, as I mentioned previous I can't see alot of light or fine details on this monitor). You prolly won't find that pic anywhere else on the net, now that I think about it. *accomplished* I hope everyone else likes it too.

I can't believe I forgot to comment on your art in my last post - Indeed, it's an amazing drawing! A great ode to an amazing game. :grin:

Do you have a Wacom or something?

Hahaha, forgive my odd comment before - I can explain. I have a Graphics Card that allows me to send the video signal to my TV. (Good for playing certain games.) In recent weeks, though, I've had Brightness and Sharpness issues on a few resolutions, so, to me, it looked like fan-art. (Part of the reason I haven't been posting much in recent weeks is because I couldn't see forum text.) :razz:

Being back on a monitor, I feel quite dumb. Either way, the wallpaper's great. :cool:

Hahaha, just wait until the patch is readied - I'm sure fanart will surge.

Thinking about it, we should have some kind of low-scale fanart sig-making contest. So fans can put them in their signatures at their favorite forums - A great way to intrigue users once the patch is out.

Here's an example I threw together with my meager skills:
Image

It would be a simple contest with simple rules: Make the dimensions 610x100, include a phrase like "Now in English," etc. Think about it. :razz:

The original Beyond Coast from the PC98 version. Nice! I always thought that version had the nicest looking graphics.

I really like that pic because of the scary depth lol... Beyond Coast (and of course what it was based on) is such a surreal image...

Indeed, but I have this site to thank for the image, though:

Some spoilers in there from the Prologue, aside from that, it's okay.

Yeah, too bad that article will never be finished, though, because it looks like a great (and very thorough) analysis on the original version of the game.

Thank you guys ! ^__~.

Hopefully my motivation to write the rest will come back when the patch is released, it's tough to analyse deeply the rest of the game without catching what the character says about such or such item. Basically, it's what stopped me from going further.

So you're saying you'll finish the article after you've completed the patch? Right? Right?

Well I'm not involved in the patch project but when it'll be released (I can't wait) it will be a great help to highlight the differences between the PC98 version and others.

Good luck to the guys working on this !

Speaking of signatures, I don't like asking for stuff, but is it alright if I can make a signature request? I'm planning on using it for the Official Nintendo Magazine forums, I've already got a link to the Junker forums in my signature, but I'd also like something for the Policenauts site. There's an untapped resource of gamers at the place, so it'd be a good way to get more people interested in Policenauts.

As such, I was wondering if anyone could put together a sig for me to use? It doesn't have to be anything too fancy, but it has to be 200 x 150 in size.

Ooh, ooh, who wants to do it??
Edit: If you're gonna hit a Nintendo place, you'd better fuckin' hope it's too fancy.

Oh, just the Policenauts text would be fine. Thank you. Also, yeah, it's a pretty fancy Nintendo site, it's for the Official Nintendo Magazine. Lot of folk hang out there.

Well, there's my swing~
