It's time for another Screenshot Competition!

Here's how it works:

At the start of each competition, the rules will be stated in the first post and any changes from the standard set of rules will be shown in bold for emphasis, along with the Theme and the Deadline. The Theme is a word, phrase, or description that each entry is based on and will set the basis for judging at the end of the competition. Each user can submit one (1) screenshot each. When the deadline is up, the topic will be locked. A new poll will be created soon after the competition ends so that voting can begin.

Rules:
  • Every entry must be the user's own work. (It cannot be downloaded from another website)
  • Unless otherwise stated, it must be a screenshot from "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion"
  • It can not be edited, color adjusted, or enhanced in any way (Especially, photo or graphics editing programs)
  • You can resize, crop, and scale as necessary to get it to a reasonable screensize and filesize, as long as you're not attempting to enhance the image in the process, as that would violate the previous rule.
  • You are allowed to re-use a screenshot you previously posted on the boards, as long as it follows all other rules and has never been used in any other competition before. (especially this one, of course)
  • No off topic posting in the Competition topic. (Open discussion will be allowed in the Screenshot Competition Discussion topic)
  • No profanity, offensive language, or adult situations. (All forum rules still apply here.)
  • If you have any active mods in the scene (especially user-mods that affect the textures, clothing, or visual quality of the game), please list them in the text of your submission.
  • Include a text description of your general location in Cyrodiil (nearest city; name of the cave, fort, or Ayleid Ruin; or questline) and a brief description of why you feel your picture fits the current theme.

This Competition's Theme is Ominous
Go into Oblivion (or Cyrodiil) and take a picture (screenshot) of something that best conveys the idea of something "Ominous". Post it here and see who's picture best fits the theme. Just do your best to capture the essence of the theme in the most creative way possible. We will have a full 3 weeks to take screenshots this time around. Winners will have their image displayed for the world to see, so get out there and create an entry. The deadline is Thursday 23 October 2008 at 7:00pm EST (4:00pm PST; midnight GMT; 10am the next day in Australia)

When the competition is over for the week the topic will be locked and a new poll will be created so we can all vote for a winner. Remember, only one entry per person, so make it a good one. Since the competition is a long one, if you want to post a new entry your previous entry (in this same competition) will need to be deleted in order to replace the old one. So, if you post an entry and want it replaced but time ran out on editing the old one (24 hours), just post a second one, making sure to make a note that it is your new entry. I, or another moderator, will kindly delete your first entry for you. Feel free to repost your original entry on another appropriate board if you'd like. Good luck and have fun, everyone! Let's make it another great one.

No active mods, taken in Anvil.
I feel like this represents the theme because it plays on the common image associated with the word: "dark clouds." So an oblivion sky is the equivalent, only maybe a bit worse. Or am I the only one who thinks that? Anyway, there's a chapel. I've always felt like churches were ominous. (And synagogues and other temples.)

I apologize; I haven't entered any recently due to my computer suddenly slowing down (yes, I tried defragging it; it's just getting old), and this time around I happened to have the theme in an old shot.

Its Vincinte Valteri---I feel he captures the ominous(evil omen) because of his eyes, involvement with DB and he is a vampire.
KOTN and SI active but they have no effect on the shot.

I can't believe it's Thursday already. I totally lost track of time and thought I had one more day to get an entry in.
