Excuse me, Cry-Tom, I just made my caption screenshot entry, but I'm having trouble attaching it to a comment on the Caption contest thread. It gives me an error saying there's too few characters in my post and in the competition rules, it says to only upload my pic WITHOUT any words etc. How can I do it then?

There is no limit on the captions, you can simply type as much text as you want.

I successfully uploaded it!

Hi Cry Tom. Which language to use the caption and be a necessity?

What I want to know is:
I live in Brazil. If I, by luck, win the GeForce card, will it be shipped here?
Or the prizes are only for a few selected countries?

Hey, you're supposed to post your submission in the "Caption contest submissions" thread, not here. Just a heads up.

how do i post the picture i dont know how i mean i cant copy and paste

how do i post the picture i dont know how i mean i cant copy and paste

Ha ha, It isn't that easy man.... T_T You must have that image URL or you have saved it in your own computer and then upload it into a website for that thing, Like " Image Shack" or something...

hi tom. can we use animated gif pictures?

How do you add a caption to the picture????

thank u,im use the imageshack and can u tell which link should i use? (first time im posting like this)

hi tom. can we use animated gif pictures?
No, please keep it to static images. Will update the rules on this, thanks

How do you add a caption to the picture????
You can either add it to your screenshout through a program like MS Paint or Photoshop. Or you can just add the image to your post and type in your caption underneath.

it says maximum 256 KiB the provided caption photos are 756 KiB help

Please upload to a free image host, like http://imageshack.us

Thanks

Do the captions necessarily need to be funny ones? Or is it equally acceptable to put one that is more descriptive and shows our appreciation of Crysis 2, etc...? Will funny ones get greater chances of being selected?
Also, will an 800x600 pic get lesser chance of being selected than a 1920x1080 one, solely because of the resolution?

I'm so excited about this competition! I already posted my 3 entries for today, and I'm sticking with them 'till the end!

When will the winners be revealed?

How do you edit posts you guys?! It's driving me nuts!

Edit: ok its working on this page but on the caption page..the edit post button is missing!

Hi guys, I suggest you post your captions in this submission thread: http://www.gamesas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=26203

Anyone who posts it in this topic will most unlikely be entered.

hey cry-tom i write the caption but the image url only appears not the image?
am i still eligible to win??

Wait, most importantly, how do you take a screenshot in Crysis 2??

Good old "Ctrl+PrtSCN">Paint isn't working. I'm not going to use fraps. Any help?

And I see there are guys able to take images detached from the player cam perspective....i.e. some kind of free-floating camera work being done. That would help greatly.
Or is that cheating and not allowed?

i pressed ctrl+prtscr to get a screen shot....
then i pasted it into paint app....
i'm getting a black image instead..... how to take that.??
