It's no that much of a differencE; I just want to be the owner of the discussion thread so I can edit the OP and title at free will
Heres a list: - Headshot - Blades - Pipes - Tanks - Mercy - Revenge - Perfection - Overkill (not just the medal) - Weapons - Helmets - Active Camo - Monsters - Sand - Ice - Space - Bridges - Desolation - Vistas - Auras - Power - Immersion - Blood - Flood - Water Too many?
It might be interesting to do something more abstract, like "parallel lines" or "only three colors" or "geometric shapes" or something. But that might not attract a variety of submitters, so, never mind. On the other hand, you could do color schemes ie. blue as the dominant color.
Its a little hard to control the colors of screenshots but even though is do able the thing i will probably do is have one main color focus. @crypto: alot of your suggestions were way too narrow, like pipes or blades.
I suggest "Humor" or "Funny" as one. People need some funny screenshots to brighten up their day on this site. The rest are artsy and abstract and, dare I say, COOL!
I have some ideas that I think you could use. -cod themed -forge art -close ups -snow -multiple people in screenshot shots -dual wielding I hope at least one of those is useful
i think dual and funny would be cool, COD themed? bit :/ with the lack of cod like things in halo... what with it being a different game...
hmm.. what about a marine theme? you have already done a ODST theme so why not some old fashion marines from Halo 3's Campaign?
