Screenshot Copyright message

I only just discovered PR with 0.5 and wow what a great mod! Despite being at only 0.5 it's extremely polished and playable - can't wait for more.

I like this mod so much that I wanted to spread the word on forums I visit and was looking for some good screenshots to show people.

The little bird shots in the media thread are awesome!

But WTF? What are these massive copyright notices. They put me off posting them because I didn't want any grief from the moderators on the forum I was going to use. No screenshots means a lot less notice.

So guys, lose those big nasty threatening copyright messages - replace them with a nice little (c) or something. Encourage people to spread those screenshots around - it's free publicity. Put up a bunch of shots explicitly for people to spread around.

I would have posted this in the media forum but there's no general thread there. Keep up the great work lads!

From what it says, I dont think your even supposed to be spreading them around as it says "Exclusivly for the media gallery of the official project reality forums"

Exactly. But by containing them to these forums only it is hurting the efforts of the team by restricting publicity. More publicity=more players.

Lol sorry man but you're obviously not a marketing man! What would grab your attention most? A billboard with a nice colour picture of a sleek, shiny new Porsche with a gorgeous chick draped over it, or a billboard with the writing, "Please go and check out www.porsche.com".

When I heard there was a mod called PR I thought "ho-hum", another BF mod. But when I saw the picture of the landrover I thought, "Wow, these guys are good modellers. This looks interesting, I'm going to see more." Then I saw it was a 1.6gig download I thought, "No thanks"!

But when I saw the screenshots of the little bird I thought I thought, "Oh yes, it's worth the download!". That was the Porsche with the chick draped on it!

Here endeth marketing 101, haha!

Exactly why you post shiny PR pictures, then say "Please check out www.RealityMod.com"
