Just thought I should drop a note to mention that the SOE offices are closed this Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday, which means that we won't have official Live Events on those days. I also don't have anyone in the office today who can upload images for me (:p), so there won't be an Image Retrieval this week (wasn't planning one anyway, conveniently--gotta save up for two particular ones just before the Winter Holiday update...), and I won't be able to put up a Live Event thread today for yesterday's event.
But that doesn't mean I can't sneak in a preview, I guess...
I have a sneaking suspicion that Rarebit either has a way to automatically take screenshots every second, or he has some Dev tool to recreate an entire event and take screenshots at his leisure. 'Cos these shots are just too good to be taken by chance.

F11 for me, as it happens. I still wonder how you manage to get such good shots, though. You must sit there hitting F12 more rapidly than is humanly possible.

F12, n00b! :p
If this is about the Thanksgiving holidays then shouldn't this be in the News and Announcements section? n00b! ^_^

Nah, just about as rapidly. Also, I've mentioned this before, but I have a few useropts settings that help me get the camera around quickly:
Those will seem very twitchy at first, but with practice they're very helpful for moving the camera around to different angles while things are happening, using CTRL+WASDZX. The default camera keyboard movement speed is maddeningly slow...I'm really not sure why it's set as low as it is, but I'm hesitant to change it for all users (the default, I mean) now.

Whatever the deal, I demand favouritism, so PM me a picture of one of the clothing items that you say yourself are unlike anything MxO has had before. Don't worry about the favouritism, I'll then spread it equally over the forums
Thanks Rare! I've already got my MaxDist set at something crazy, but I've recently been annoyed at how slow the camera panning is. I shall see to those setting right away!
It's amazing Rarebit can get any dialogue out or abilities queued while he spams the screenshot button! I must admit though... you always seem to get very beautiful shots... " />
I LOVE not being around for this stuff! What with that and the compatibility issues with Vista this game is SO worth paying more than the US players pay! ¬_¬ Seriously, I have loved this game from day 1 but for God's sake could us EU players see some flippin' action please? It's not like we gotta wait for everyone in the SOE office to get home from work before anything can start up!
And it really riles me that I have to catch up on the story through LE posts ALL the time. However, thanks for the heads up and the piccies I guess.
EDIT: didn't think that word would be censored, but didn't wanna look like a foul mouth so changed the word.

He would run LE's for EU players, but we all know they have no souls and don't count.
