New Pirate Forum Skin – Photos for Editors without Photos

[Mister Phes]

I know it's not a minifig, but every pirate theme needs treasure, right ?

Eventually, but we specifically need minifigures at this point and someone who can take dozens of variations of particular pirate sub-themes.

But thank you for your contribution, it shall not go to waste!

Some French for you

Some zombie goodness for you

Some happy cannibalism for you

A happy yellow skinned blackbeard for you (not enough vitamins lately)

Some captains for you, though admittedly I don't think the image conforms to your rules so well. Bit grainy

This is my first attempt at taking a picture. If I need to change something let me know. I'm a huge beginner!

Thank you for your contribution!

However, a lot will need to change for the image to be upto standard, here are a list of things:

• The image is too dark and slightly out of focus.
  
• The "floor" (or tabletop) isn't a neutral colour - it looks like a wood finish which makes removing the background more difficult.
  
• The frame size is too small for the number of minifigures
  
• The minifigures aren't posed very well. For example: the shot looks taken above and you can't see the faces of some of the minifigs.
  
• One of the pirates and the treasure chest is concealed by an Imperial Guard. Each minifig must be visible in their entirety.
  

What we need is a constant well-lit environment, with a neutral coloured background, which has one or two minifigs framed front-on.

Like this:

Excellent! But remember to submit your photos (upto three in each category) in the Special Project Auditions - Submissions thread.

I better rename and close this thread to avoid confusion.

Yes, that's a good idea!
