    This is hysterically funny! I don't remember this exchange, even though I've completed this quest several times with Edwin in my party.

    If your main character has 18 or higher Intelligence this dialogue option becomes available. I solved it by having Edwind do the talking so it's not actually a Edwin banter even though it surely fits his character.

    But the gnome said that this was a petting zoo!"
    (Shadows of Undrentide screenshot submitted by chevalier)

    I don't get this one. What gnome? What zoo? Maybe it's just been too long since I've played SoU.

    Those snake-headed medusas could be in a zoo, or the snakes at least. The gnome was made up for the purpose of this joke. And no joke is funny if you need to explain it. :shake:

    Had I been less exhausted when I saw that last night, I might have figured out the snakes. I sort of viewed the picture as a hero battling monsters (didn't really think about the snakes).

    But yeah, once the joke dissection process occurs, the intended effect is sort of lost. ;)

    Luck is not exactly impressive, but the screenshot wasn't wasted since it's pretty cool to see such a thing :)

    Too long ago... but I haven't received any new screenshots to put up in ages as well. Still, I should be putting up something new soon.

    I have some screens from NwN2 and BG:EE if you need them, but that kinda seems like beating an old horse by now.

    I reckon you'll get plenty of screens from Eternity by the end of the year though.

    I've reworked the whole concept somewhat, so here's the rundown:
    • On each of the site pages (e.g. the front page), you'll new see either a Featured or a Random screenshot, with a 50% chance of seeing either on every page load.
    • Featured screenshots are singular, meaning that the same featured shot will be displayed over a longer period of time, let's say a couple of weeks.
    • Random screenshots are different on every page load; they come from the poll of past featured screenshots, which is currently around 400 strong and growing.
    I've moved the entire archive of featured screenshots to a category in our new gallery. You can rate, like or comment on them, same as with the other forum content. This thread will remain for the discussion of this feature in general.

    I've also updated the Screenshot-taking Guide with new information and details. If you'd like to submit your screenshots, read this on how to do it!

    Right now I'm especially after screenshots of Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition, BG: Siege of Dragonspear, Pillars of Eternity and Dragon Age 2 & 3, but all the other games are quite welcome too.
