Our newest contest now will be our symbol chat design contest. Entries will be user submitted to the PSOW email address. There are 4 categories of symbol chat art to label yours as and here they are:
- Funny/Cute
- PSO. Character
- Animated Set
- In-Game Messages
Submissions will be accepted till November 30th, at which time polls will be made for a week to choose the 4 category winners. Best of 4 public voting will take place for one week after that to decide the overall winner. We'll be giving away more PSO figures with this contest, we encourage everyone offline or online to join in on this contest and have fun!
Don't have capture equipment? Check out our FAQ on using the sonicteam screenshot taker thats built into PSO EP1&2 listed here (http://www.pso-world.com/faq.php?myfaq=yes&id_cat=13&categories=Pictorial%20Walkthrough%20for%20taking% 20pics%20on%20the%20Gamecube).
*UPDATE*
To help those with the next contest that don't have screen capture equipment we will be doing nightly screencaps in the PSOW block Antares/08 at 8pm PST. There will be a room named "psow screen capture". All we ask is that you please leave the room when your screenshot is taken.
Hope this helps make the contest less difficult for those without extra equipment, enjoy!

this should be interesting. From the ones I saw today, I personally liked the kitty and ninja turtles smileys (Everybody seems to love the kitty smiley)

Ninja Turtle was probably mine, I haven't seen anyone else make one yet ^_^ If it looks famalair that would be because I made the same one (well almost same, this ones not QUITE as good) on DC http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
I made a really good cat one for Snapple right after the contest too ^_______^

Too bad those of us only with the US version can't do captures. Only the Japanese version has a capture page. Guess this is a contest only for Japanese players.

you can notify us and we will take screencaps for you. or we can arrange a nightly capture session

Is there anyway for a non-import version that's not online to submit a screen shot?

As usual I'm scrwed...
I don't have a modem or BBA
I don't have a capture card
Hope PSOW staff has in mind some other contest that doesn't require anything else than the game itself or a simple PC...
*sigh* All I want is a custom avatar... -_-

This is an off topic question, but how much do capture cards run for anyway?

By changing the language setting to Japanese, couldn't you submit snapshots that way?
I haven't done it yet but I will try soon.

Just tried it and it didn't work. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

I have a good symbol, but Sega not letting you take a full-screen screenshot was dumb.
I don't have a capture card either(how much do they cost now?), so I'll have to go to one of those capture sessions.
LollipopLolita
11-17-2002, 05:42 PM
well i'm sorry but you'd need a capture card if you can't come online. =( and yes neko next contest we have lined up is more website based. so look forward to that one? we're thinking maybe bigger prizes for x'mas?
so when do you guys want to start off these capture sessions?

Hey I have some pretty badass Hi/Yay/Bye/Angry symbols that people have commented on, and I was wondering if those would be eligible for submission.
I was also wondering how many symbols one person is allowed to submit. I'd really like to submit as many symbols as I could...
Also, I can't get online yet, but I have a digital camera and I should be able to get some batteries for it >.<.
And I have a capture card but I dont have the program to use it right now O_o.

--------------UPDATE----------------
We're changing the times we take the captures. We are now doing it on SUNDAYS from 8pm until 10pm.
UNLESS you want to contact us individually via PMs, we can probably work out a time that will work for you and us to capture your ICONs. PM either me or Lolita.
Sorry for the change but maybe it'll work out better than doing it every night at 8pm for one hour.
GET BUSY MAKING THOSE ICONS!

it's times like these that almost make me wish I had a GameCube, but then remember the online fees and as to how and why they got their start... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif Damn hackers!

Heh... man. It's been quite some time since I last fiddled about with the old symbol chat... heck. 7 or 8 months since I last even put PSO into the DC...
I wonder if SnAPPLE still has screens of many of them... I know she's been doing her best to revive some of them...
the Alrappy lives into GC PSO1&2... http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif
Anyway. I DO have one I could enter.
Those who remember me will remember Nezumi.
And her 'No tea for j00!' symbol http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

OK,
Because lobby 1 is completely full and lobby 2 is near full, I have to, last minute, make an official lobby for the screencaps every sunday night.

Aaaaaaaaa...I tried to make a Hamtaro symbol chat thing, but it looks like crap...mostly because there's not nearly enough symbol space to make it look better...
Hrm...maybe I'll try and submit it anyway..I got nothing else to do...well..I have homework...gah, forget it..
*goes to find "capture equipment"*

What time on the 30th must the screenshots be in by? I've been trying to get a screenshot of my chat for the past few days but everyday I go it's not there...
Saladwood

Since it's the last day of the contest, we'll be doing screencaps of your icons from 7pm-9pm (PST), unless no one shows up, then I'll be ending it around 8pm.
Room will be PSOW screencap, and my character is Tempurawood, around lvl 39 or 40 (can't remember), so if you go in a room with a lvl 1 Temupra wood, it's a fake.
PLEASE have your icons ready BEFORE entering the room. If you want to do some and then make more, PLEASE leave the room then come back just in case we need room.
