Say eeehm … this might be a (very) stupid question, but what do I have to do to post my entry ? Give it to pom or post it here or … what ?

And just another thing: I’m kinda confused too, do you actually only have to make a screen from yer screen or do you have to design your own or what ?

Nah, i d’ say clearing ur confusions, nothin stupid in it 🙂  
yes, you have to post your entry over here with in the given time limit as decided by pom(mod) and noxious (host)

> do you actually only have to make a screen from yer screen or do you have to design your own or what ?

As far as i think, screen shot battle means capturing ur desktop and posting it here, u design your own desktop wid icons and task bar, i was thinking of adding 2 screen shots,one widout start menu and another the normal screenshot, wich includes icons and wallpaper ofcourse.

But rite now i m sort of confused too, you will be clear wid the rules and wat exactly you have to do… wait for noxious wid us:P

Ah crap, now I’m confused again. Are you saying I have to design something myself ? Or not ? Noxious or Pom, please clear this out for me. As I understand it now, I think I have to simply take a screenshot of my desktop and post it here.

suggestions like i did and just to b more clear i gave an example.

I just realised what a screw-up I’ve been. :\*( Because of me, the whole battle is messed up and accidentaly pulled fluid\_one down with me.

I feel terrible :\*(.
