One Shots: A festival panorama for Friday
We're always glad to hear from new contributors here at Massively. Every One Shots we get is a window into what our readers are playing - like today's gorgeous panoramic screenshot from Guild Wars that was sent in to us by Shawn W. But if you think this is cool, you should see the full-size image over on Shawn's Flickr account, or the one in our gallery. Lovely! Shawn writes: Here's a shot I took of Kaineng Center. ANet decked out KC for the 4th Anniversary celebration in April (including lowering the lights to make it twilight) and just left it that way.Screenshots from all games are welcome. Just email those in to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name, the game it's from, and a quick note about what we're seeing!

One Shots: Wintersday in Ascalon
It's been a while since we heard from this contributor, but we're glad to welcome back Shawn W, who has sent in lovely Guild Wars screenshots and a panorama before. Today we're featuring one of the smaller Wintersday images he's recently sent in to us - but we'll be bringing more of his incredibly lovely holiday panoramas to you in the days to come! With Wintersday at its height today until midnight in Guild Wars, this is a great time to pop back in and check out the events if you haven't been able to make it thus far. While it doesn't officially end until the 5th, today is the peak of the festivities, so don't miss out. Have you tried your hand at compiling a 360-view panorama from your favorite game? If not, why not give it a go and send in your results to us! Panoramas are always an interesting new way to look at a game world. If you'd like to give it a shot, send it to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the game it's from. We'll post it out here for everyone to enjoy and give you the credit. %Gallery-9798%
One Shots: Amnoon Oasis
We've been getting some really tremendous panoramas lately from Shawn W who compiles them in Guild Wars. Today's One Shots is of Amnoon Oasis in Guild Wars Prophecies. Shawn writes: For travelers into the desert, this tiny harbor represents a last chance to rest and resupply. It also provides one last view of water, sight of which becomes increasingly rare as one ventures eastward. This image is nearly a 360º panorama. If you really want to be blown away, check out the full-size panorama!Do you have any screenshots you've compiled into panoramas? Perhaps you just have a lovely landscape? If so, we'd love to see them! Just send them to us here at oneshots AT massively.com. %Gallery-9798%
One Shots: The frosty lands of Sifhalla
Despite the warm weather in many areas, in game some places remain cold and dark, creating a foreboding sense of gloom. Today's One Shots shows off one such area from Guild Wars' Eye of the North expansion. This screen comes to us from regular Guild Wars contributor Shawn W. who writes: Sif Shadowhunter refused to battle for an encampment held by other Norn; instead building her own hearthstead and defending it so fiercely that some call it "Bear Mother's Cave" in tribute to her strength and glory. Others of similar attitude have put up hides here, describing notorious foes they plan to hunt, or daring others to track them down.Do you have a spot in game important to the lore of the land you love to roam? If so, we'd love to see some screenshots of them! Just drop us an email here to oneshots AT massively.com including screenshot and a quick blurb as to what we're looking at. Yours could be one of the upcoming One Shots! %Gallery-9798%
One Shots: Through the darkened wood
Dark and sinister places, while being the kinds of locales that one would normally tend to avoid in the real world, can be places of great adventure in MMOGs. Today's One Shots landscape comes from Shawn W. who sent in this spooky Guild Wars screenshot from near Doomlore Shrine in the Eye of the North expansion. If you look very closely, you can see a stream of what appears to be people down in the valley... or are they?Do you have a great screenshot of a landscape that you'd like to share with the world? If so, drop us a note at oneshots AT massively.com with your image, and a quick blurb about it. With weekend gaming coming up, we want to see what you're up to. So send those screenshots in!%Gallery-9798%
