Stickied for the contest.

[MMC]

What are the criteria you're looking for?

[Adagio]

No criteria as long as it's made in the UFO editor. But if you want to win you might want to make an UFO worth voting for

Maybe I am just an idiot, but how do I do either of these things? If I bring up my UFO "Eye See You" on My Spore, all that is there is a picture (not at the most flattering angle either!). How do I export a .png file?

[Adagio]

Just link to the ufo in your profile in a pm, then I can get the ufo


To download a creature/ufo/building/whatever just right click on the picture and click "save as" or something like that. This opens up the dialog box to download the png file to your computer (which is how you can get a creature/whatever found on spore.com into your game, you save the png file in your documents/my creatures/"type" directoy)

Or look in \My Documents\My Spore Creations\UFOs\

[Kinjiru]

Alright, I sent a PM. Not sure how to attach files, so I tried the linking thing, but I'm not sure I did that right either. I love me some 'poly forums but why is it so unintuitive to use the boards - and I'm a dang software developer!!

[Adagio]

Got it


Now there's two UFO's in the game

[Darsnan]

Just submitted mine.


D

[Guynemer]

Entered.

[Adagio]

Great, we're up to 8 UFOs and 5 players... remember you can enter up to two UFOs

[Dale]

Did you get my UFO or not? I PM'ed it to you a few days ago.

[Adagio]

Nope, haven't received anything from you...
