Alderaan News Holopics: Submit your Screenshot here!
With Star Wars: The Old Republic officially in full swing now, we're going to be starting a weekly article on StarWarsMMO.net in which we feature screenshots taken by you fans titled "Alderaan News Holopics". This is one of the places you can submit a screenshot for use in the article, simply leave a screenshot with a caption or blurb describing the shot and we'll stick it in next week's article. Some quick tips for taking screenshots...
- Hit Alt + Z in the game before you hit Prt Scrn to hide the UI and take a much cleaner shot
- Screenshots taken via the Prt Scrn button on the keyboard are automatically stored in a SWTOR folder in your "My Documents" folder
- You can use the mouse wheel to zoom in all the way and get shots from your characters POV
- Holding the left click on the mouse allows you to freely rotate the camera for different angles
- Explore, explore, explore there is a lot of scenery in the galaxy!
If you need an alternate place to submit your screenshots you either PM me here on LF or e-mail me at mav@starwarsmmo.net I hope you all are having a very Merry Christmas and a festive holiday season.

The Star Wars universe is a fantastic place, where technology is so advanced that even a mere torso can live a rich and fulfilling life:

Looks to me like he hasn't mastered the whole "becoming one with the force" routine.

It's dumping JPGs in Documents\Star Wars - The Old Republic\Screenshots\ for me. I don't recall having to enable it in the preferences or anything. Maybe check the key bindings page and make sure it hasn't been disabled or assigned to another key.

It works! I was in the habit of holding alt when i hit print screen (this captures the active window only) and that will prevent SWTOR from saving the image. Hitting prntscrn by itself automatically saves the image!
Apparently I subscribed to Creature From The Black Lagoon Online. Who knew?

Severed heads preserved in jars pass for art on Alderaan, apparently. Classy.

Ilum is a cold barren rock, but the lack of development makes for some very clear and pretty night skies.

I haven't posted any pics of my character until now, as I'm just getting the hang of screenshots. I don't take good pictures IRL, and I don't think my virtual photography skills are any better. But here goes nothing.
So, here is Captain Miqui, Scrapper Scoundrel, deciding to take a day off in Nar Shaddaa.
This seems like a normal picture at first, showing off an Imp soldier on Hoth. But this is actually a Republic base, and just a few minutes ago, this guy was surrounded by four Republic commandos. Even after defeating their boss, the guy just stands there. Creepy.
Show spoiler
Speaking of creepy, this is as good a time as any to introduce Blizz.
I'm not sure that "degraded" sufficiently captures the quality of the experience. Good times.
