    Just as with Halo 3, I was thrilled to find that once again, I can download Hi-res screenshots to my PC and play with them.

    The image below is still a bit of a work in progress (this is version 2, btw), but I like the way this copy looked, and I wanted to share it and get your reaction.

    I like the sense of depth, but it seems to blurry to me.

    I wouldnt blur out the spartan, it would better define the focal.

    I will take a second look at my depth of field then. I wasn't intentionally trying to blur the spartan, but he looked a little too "cut-out", and I wanted him to blend in a little better.

    Plus, it's a night shot, some of the detail is meant to be washed out, but I know what you mean, I'll take a closer look at him too and see if I can spruce him up. How would some slight armor highlights work?

    How's this?

    I sharpened the Spartan up and removed most of the dust in front of him, and made the background less blurry.

    Have a new one, if anyone cares to see and comment. I had a hard time deciding on a background, so I just left it black. Sometimes I like that kind of simplicity, depending on the picture. I think it works with this one, but if anyone has any suggestions I'll gladly hear them.

    Here's my poster-spartan for the infection gametype.
