Hi fellow Captains,
It's my pleasure to announce that the monthly-screenshot/image contests are making their comeback, where your creativity is encouraged & promoted, starting on 1st August through to 31st August. To continue the tradition, each month will once again, encourage a theme/topic for your entries.
So, without further ado:
August's Theme: THE ICONIAN WAR!
The Iconian threat is looming! How does your Captain deal with this threat? We'd like to see your Captains in action - Any Iconian-war pictures are a fair game. Do you prefer to blow up their precious ships to pieces? Or is it the away-missions, the more "hands-on" approach, that your Captain and your crew prefers to take? The choice is yours!
In short - Space or Ground pictures? Doesn't matter. Your pick! :-)
PRIZES:
1st Prize = 1500 ZEN + Your screenshot gets made into an Official STO Wallpaper!
2nd Prize = 1000 ZEN
3rd Prize = 500 ZEN
FEW RULES:
A LITTLE HOW TO:
All entries must be at least 1920x1080. There are few ways how to get a good picture.
Good luck to everyone who enters, looking forward to seeing your entries!

PRIZES:
1st Prize = 1500 ZEN + Your screenshot gets made into an Official STO Wallpaper!
2nd Prize = 1000 ZEN
3rd Prize = 500 ZEN
FEW RULES:
- All images must be at least 1920x1080 for submission. Or larger.
- One entry per month per author. You can re-entry next month if you don't win.
- Images not meeting the size-requirement will not qualify for the grand- prize of being converted into a wallpaper!
- All images must be submitted in JPEG form. If you add any graphic elements to your picture, make sure you do keep the .PSD file, in case you win!
- Adding custom flavor to your image is encouraged! (Ie. editing in Photoshop)
- Absolute must - All images must be purely made by using Star Trek Online visual assets. Don't use any TV series/movies pictures!
- No usage of third-party 3D models. As above. Your entries must be done purely by using STO visual assets and/or your creativity. (Photoshop editing - it HAS to be your work)
A LITTLE HOW TO:
All entries must be at least 1920x1080. There are few ways how to get a good picture.
- Type "/renderscale 2" (or larger number, but needs stronger computer/GPU) into your chat window before you take the image.
- Type "/screenshot" to take image.
- This will create a large .TGA file in the directory, which you can convert in Photoshop, to fit the required size.
- Additionally, you can edit your screenshot, to add custom perks to it, you deem fit! The only rule here is, again, and this is emphasised - it must be your work!
- You can find your screenshot folder in "\Star Trek Online\Star Trek Online\Live\screenshots" - that being a rule of thumb on most computers
Good luck to everyone who enters, looking forward to seeing your entries!

Nothing too special, just my Andromeda under Cloak! U.S.S. Yamato!
It took a few hours to do in Photoshop, but I think it turned out good.
Please note: not an actual submission. (This is actually my desktop wallpaper that I'm using right now)

EDIT: After a few major issues, the image is finally fixed. The above link is the fixed version.
Your father was captain of a starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's, and yours.
I dare you to do better.

old habit
The USS Marathon joins the Alliance Fleet before its ill fated mission.
Note: Edits made are color desaturation of non-lightsources and increase of bloom to increase the feeling of DOOM.

Is a deviantart image able to be taken for this kind of thing, or does it have to be visible on the thread?
