    ALL MAPS FOR SCREENSHOTS FOUND IN DeIerium's FILESHARE!!!!
    White Effect: The effect seen in the "MLG Pro" screenshot.
    Filters: Juicy, Pen and Ink
    Founded by: OvyZ
    Where to take screenshot: The letters MUST be above the moon on Blackout, The moon light turns the Words White.
    Tips: The farther away you are from the letters while in theater taking the screenshot;The whiter the letters appear.

    Smoke Effects: Probably some of the nicest effects. You can create some of the best screenshots using this Smoke Guide. This 1 effect will give you a better understanding on how the smoke works. Basically, The weapons, while in the smoke take the color of anything bright. Exs. A rocket explosion, a beam rifle shot, Overshield, Camo, Custom Powerup, Spartan Laser shot, etc.

    How to take the screenshot: Look through the Shot or explosion up into the smoke. If done right the Letters will take the color of the Explosion or Shot.

    Advanced Smoke Effects: Ok this is basically only if you already know the simple smoke effects. These effects are mainly with the laser.
    Filters: Juicy, Gloomy
    1. Write what you want on the bridges.
    2. Save Changes, End game
    3. Start game back up and Delete the bridges
    4. Shoot Laser in the direction Your writing is going, Keep it at head level, (This might be a bit confusing, Its really hard to explain)
    5. Go to theater and look through the laser, basically keep taking screenshots as this will help you find the effects in the laser.
    Ok There are TONS of Smoke effects but some are just common sense and i do not need to tell you that, Ex. If you want the color pink use a Needler.
    Also I do not know all the effects. There are new ones nearly everyday from F2P. EX:[​IMG]

    White Writing (Different Color BackGrounds)
    Ex. Frownzy's Str8 Rippin Screenshot (White writing, Blue BackGround)
    This is a pretty easy effect if you can understand that less is more. When taking these screenshot you do not want to go into the middle of a laser shot and take the screenshot. You will just get a White Screenshot (And you wont be able to see the Writing at all!)
    Blue effect: Plasma Rifle
    Green effect: Plasma Pistol
    Purple effect: Needler
    Red effect: Laser
    Orange(ish): Spiker
    Those are all the colors you can get with this effect.
    SO... Now how to take the screenshot. After you do your writing and Follow the steps to have your Selected Word Floating.
    1. Filters: Juicy, Pen and Ink
    2. Where to shoot the weapon from:
    URL=http://img190.imageshack.us/i/whereto.jpg/][​IMG][/URL]
    3. Shoot every weapon from there, not just the spartan Laser.
    4. Make sure there are no clouds behind your Word in the sky, They make the screenshot really bright.
    5. Go to theater and take a screenshot
    6. When taking the screenshot go on the outer edges of the Gun Shot (not the pro) DO NOT go into the middle or it will come out extremely blurry.
    7. My best advice is to keep messing around in theater and eventually you will have this effect down easily



    Those are Basically the only effects really used to this day. If you have any questions Just message me on ForgeHub or XbL. DeIerium

    Good job =], but there's more effects with the smoke then just that.
    examples:
    Pink effect: Needler, or you can use a deploable cover and hit it.
    Orange: you could also use a seintenial beam.
    I have more but i dont see why you can use basically any gun that has a bit of a glow to it.

    Eamonn I didnt copy you. This is just a short guide. Yours will probably be extensive because you said it'll be done by Nov. 1st. And i never copied you in the first place, I think.

    Yea that'll be really nice.
