Announcing the winners for the "Loading Screen Screenshot Contest"!

Hi Captains,

On behalf of the entire STO team, we want to thank everyone who participated in our "Loading Screen Screenshot Contest" that we've been running the past few months! There were some absolutely incredible screens that were submitted, and it was quite hard to choose the winners -- you all have a great eye and many of the images were truly jaw dropping.

It took days of deliberations to come to a consensus on our final list, so without further ado, we'd like to present the winning images of the contest, those that will be featured as in-game loading screens in the not-too-distant future:

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    I really like the Bug-ship, Nemesis and Hirogen shot.

    The bridge shot is a nice change of pace, since most are ships snapped from the front. Which can be quite repetitive.

    That said; Congradulations on your victories.
