So, using this curve setting:

I went from this:

To this:

Not too much of a difference, but note how some of the colors are more pronounced and the image has a bit of 'grit' and/or 'glare' to it. There are tons of things to do in GIMP.

Your alterations push far too many extremes. But if you want to futz with the original un-altered image.

Didn't get a screen shot unfortunately but saw the most hilarious kill scene last night. i was being harrased by a spider in my Awesome which i then managed to kill.

It was what happened as i killed the spider that made me lol. It exploded then literally cartwheeled twice before skidding down the hill it had just launched off wish i had fraps or something going would of made an epic Gif.

True story.

It happens sometimes. I wonder if it's ammo explosion or weapon impact. In such cases you are better off doing video capture.

How do you move the camera in such a way that you can view the front of your mech in game?

Is there a website to download these in a .zip - file or something like that? It's a little tedious to download them all manually. If not I could set one up for you, I envision something like "Oh I like this. Click. Oh and that. Click. Oh and that and that. Click. Click. Download button -> lordred.zip"

I'm a web developer with lots of free time aka. unemployed (not for professional reasons) and would love to help you out. Send me a PM if you're interested, I hardly watch the forums.

Thank the Lord that PostAA is disabled.

First PUGshot in a long time. Makes a nice desktop BG. There's some nice brightness contrast and the Mechs look great (IMO).

I thought it was a confirmed broken switch.

Not sure. I thought they said they patched it. I sped read, so I may have misread it. But I haven't been getting ghosts in my shots recently.

Fantastic!

Mcgral's Wubshee photographs really well. As do the pretty snowflake Adders, actually.

This was a ton of fun. Would love to do it again.
