"First Steps" Screenshot Contest

Event Type: Screenshot contest.
Start date/time: The second the servers turn "on".
Finish date/time: Tuesday, September the 11th (extended due to technical issues with the website)

I thought it would be fun to try and capture the first "defining" moment of our characters journey through Tyria and a screenshot contest seemed the most fun way of accomplishing this.

You have a week from the official launch date (August 28th) to take one screenshot (no multiple entries) that defines your characters "first steps".

This could be anything from you hanging out with your favourite NPC, grouping with friends or sitting at your favourite look-out point. Whatever you feel has best captured your characters live so far.

If you wish to enter then please reply to this thread with your screenshot attached and perhaps a short description. Then your Majors and Commanders (who are more then welcome to take part) will decide who's screenshot they liked best.

I will create an album for the website with all the entries so we can look back and remember how it all began.

Please only submit screenshots that have been taken between the servers being on and the closing date of the competition (beta screenshots are awesome but your beta characters are dead :p).

The defining part of what makes Guild Wars 2 so special for me is scale. No matter where I end up I always feel like I'm part of a massive world filled with all sorts of interesting sights and sounds.

Massive buildings or giant creates (like my friend in the picture) just echo how epic Tyria is.

Competition will be closing in a few days.

If you've got a screenshot to submit, think about doing it soon! :)

I'm the one on the right. No, the other right. Ah forget it, I'm a mechanical jelly! :D

The beautiful Grove :D the home of my main character, Fayte. It also shows the massive environment scaling!

My surprise to finding this thing in the beginning human zone in the game. Who would have thought at level 12 you could be facing such intimidating foes!

It was extremely difficult to decide between me facing dragons, Kerstov and I running from angry chickens, or even Kerstov drinking some pirates under the table..but, in the end I had the pic the posed shot with me and my buddy :D

Competition is closed for entries.

Thank you everybody who participated! We'll announce a winner soon.

Update: The winner has been chosen, check out (Invalid img).
