Woo hoo! Around Azeroth has returned, in our new incarnation as BlizzCaps! It was a refreshing few weeks off, but I'm happy to be back in the saddle with all you lovely readers. The undead gnome in this submission from reader Dan Jack is pretty pleased too, judging by the maniacal grin on her face. Maybe she's just trying to diffuse the tension built up from the ghost husband and wife arguing behind her.
There's a few new things we need to go over about BlizzCaps: BlizzCaps welcomes submissions from all Blizzard games, including the
Warcraft,
Diablo and
StarCraft franchises. However, while I play
WoW and
Diablo III, I gave up on anything
StarCraft-related due to being terrible at it. So if you want a good story behind your
StarCraft submission, it would be helpful if you explained what was going on in the screenshot, or I'll be forced to make "must construct additional pylons" jokes to cover my shameful lack of knowledge.
Another change in the new site has to do with our images. Back at the Site That Must Not Be Named, I could make the images any height I wanted, as long as they were 580 pixels in width. No more! Now I have 40 more pixels in width to work with, but the height also has to be a set limit. So if you send in a lovely screenshot taken on your three-monitor setup, I'm probably going to have to crop it pretty severely to get it to fit. Don't blame me; blame Alex and Adam. (Just kidding, they're awesomesauce for pulling this all together.)
I think that clears up all the housekeeping business. Now all that's left is for you to send your Blizzard screenshots to
[email protected]! Welcome to BlizzCaps, folks. The name may have changed, but the undying hatred for gnomes remains the same.
