Nevrax,
the makers of Ryzom, are advertising with us this month, and they’ve
given me a bunch of full-access, one-month trial keys to do with as I
please. So I’m having a little contest to give the keys away.

So here are the basic rules:

• The
  screenshot must be show Ryzom or Ryzom ring material. You can find one
  online to use, or snap a screenshot in-gam.
• Photoshop or image editing IS allowed. You can add
  effects, word balloons, captions, cut and paste characters from other
  screenshots, etc.
• Screenshots will be
  judged by me alone, based on a variety of factors such as originality,
  creativity, humor, skill and the purposefully vague “cool factor”.
• Screenshots should be no larger than 1600×1200
• Submissions should be sent to cad.contest (at) gmail.com, and you MUST write the category you are submitting to in the subject line.
• All entries must be received by 12pm (noon) EST on Friday, November 3rd. I will try
  to have the winners notified by Friday evening, in time for the GameDay
  on Saturday.
• Any entries not following these guidelines will be burned and urinated upon.

So, the categories for the screenshots will be as follows (humor is welcome in all categories):

• Comedy: Pretty
  straightforward- make me laugh. Either just a visually funny
  screenshot, or funny through dialogue, captions, or other creative
  means.
• Action: A
  screenshot that shows some sort of awesome action. A fight, a pose,
  something. Humor is, as always, welcome, but the core element of the
  screenshot should be something action-y.
• Photochopped:
  The best use of image editing. Be it combining elements of screenshots,
  adding effects, or whatever. The most skillful use of editing wins here.
• Dramatic: The most dramatic pose, most dramatic lighting, most dramatic scenery, dialogue, etc.
• Ring Use: Coolest use of the Ryzom Ring editor.

Prizes
will be awarded just to the best of the best. Any keys that I don’t give away will be awarded in-game
during the GameDay on Saturday.

The GameDay will be from 5pm EST – 8pm EST. More details in the official thread.
