Title: Poster GE: Source
Post by: Matteobin on May 28, 2010, 08:50:30 pm
Hi everyone,
during my freetime I created this poster.

The resolution is 1280x1024, if someone want another ask me.
The background image can be changed with another, for istance with the gunbarrel with the Walther PPK inside.

I hope you'll enjoy it...

Well, try not to take this too harshly...

Firstly, I like the font, it looks nice but it's very large and takes up an unreasonable amount of space. Most people avoid using wallpapers with large imposing text on them.

The red ring should go around the E, not on top of it. See example (http://gameinformer.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/00.00.00.00.06/6622.Goldeneye2_2D00_1024x768.jpg).

'A Half Life 2 Mod' is completely unnecessary, anyone who would be using this as a wallpaper would already know that Goldeneye Source is a half life 2 mod. More specifically that is rather incorrect anyway, being that it's a Source mod, Half Life 2 does not necessarily need to be owned, the engine does.

There's really not much else I can say... It's text over a screenshot. I am curious though, what map is that? It looks like it could be runway... If it is then it's a very old screenshot and not representative of the mod in it's current state.

The background image seems low res..

Should make sure the video settings are on highest possible when taking screens..

On both versions you're using incredibly outdated map screenshots from 2005 pre-beta 1 (Which I don't understand at all). Have you looked at the mod's current version? You can make a much higher quality (and up to date) screenshot by just taking a screenshot while in the current public build.

I don't know many people that willingly stare at neon glowing text on their desktop. The whole concept needs to be overhauled.

I updated the text, changing the colours.

I hope you'll enjoy it.


P.S.
I have some problems with my pc and I can not take a photo of Arecibo Observatory, so if someone could help me...

You could use an updated screenshot... oh i dunno... Casino or Silo or bunker_classic or any other map that was just released and overhauled...

The Red E is killing me, makes me think someone punched it and its bruised

ok...maybe you didn't get my message before. UPDATE THE PICTURE! stop using outdated beta 1 pictures of facility....take your own pictures in game with f5 and then use those.

I did it, but I don't have a powerfull pc. So the photos would be ugly.
Title: Re: Poster GE: Source
Post by: kraid on December 25, 2010, 11:59:43 am
^^In that case ask someone else with a more powerfull PC to take some screenshots for you.
