<div class="IPBDescription">no 30 more dollars for you valve!</div> soo i was getting tired of my old old Unreal Tournament poster on my door, and I thought it would be cool to have an updated game..then i remembered I had <a href='http://www.deviantart.com/view/4246936/' target='_blank'>http://www.deviantart.com/view/4246936/</a> on my harddrive.

so I photoshoped it a bit, and used my <a href='https://www.designjet.hp.com/pdp/render.html?forcePre=Y&new_product=5500PS&page_name=summary&pageseq=164208' target='_blank'>super cool huge printer</a> to print it...

here is the result

    Nice, alternatly you can take it to some place like Kinkos or any printing shop really. I made a tabloid sized poster for my English class that I got printed @ Office Depot.

    I must say again, that loks pretty damn cool.

    lol, I did the same exact thin with the same exact image about a month ago. Its great, but the way he is holding the crowbar seems a bit off, looks more like gordon is going to hit the antlion with the side of the crowbar...

    its an optical illusion, if you follow the edges of the crowbar you can see it aucatly is facing the right way

    I would post the picture of the 40-some inch by 60-some inch hi-res poster of Shodan (from System Shock 2) I had printed, but I can't seem to find drivers for my cheap, ancient webcam. The best I'd be able to do is link to the source image, which I already did in the "amazing images" thread.

    [edit]I realized OfficeMax's use of cookies on their website means the <a href='http://www.officemax.com/max/solutions/search/search.jsp?bvc=yes&searchType=product&searchString=iconcepts+camera&searchBtn.x=14&searchBtn.y=15' target='_blank'>link</a> I put to the exact camera may not work. Try searching for "iconcepts camera" and it's the 1st grey generic-looking one.

    if you use windows xp you don't need drivers, it will read the flash disk as a storage device and open it up as a folder

    Heh. Do we have a new Hentai freak?

    BTW: I like the original poster's poster much better than that pic. In that, Gordon looks like that grabber's ****. While in the artist's pic(not concept artist's official), Gordon's kickin **** and taking names.

    You need 3 posters. The gold pack has 3 posters.

    I totally agree. To really beat their Gold Package, at a minimum, you need two more posters, the soundtrack, and a 1-in-5000 chance of successfully infiltrating the Valve headquarters. Everything else in negligible. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    By the way, if anyone wins that trip you're bringing me. I'm like 10 minutes away from Valve. Just say we're cousins.
