I know what you mean Dafrca.
I remeber fingering through those old WD's and seeing those pictures of the battle of Tallarn (the most bloodiest battle during the horus heresy with casualties in the millions!) or that picture with all the CI's and marines charging each other.
Thats what epic is all about!!

Yep, I remember one picture that shows an Eldar Titan falling after taking damage. The "little" people around it. Or the shot of a whole hord of Orks charging accross an open plane.
Man that was a fun time, when I was new to Epic and had no expectations other then a fun time trying to smash my friends army

I agree...those old pics were absolutely inspiring! The one with all the CIs lined up and hordes of Guardsmen advancing before them was my favourite!
Maybe it would be worth building a gallery of all these cool pics?

Taz,

It would have to be unofficial or require a password or GW wouldn't like it one bit.
Maybe someone could ask Jervis, but I don't think his power extends out that far. The photos probably have corporate ownership.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

No, I dont imagine they would!
I am quite happy to put together and host such a gallery, which being seperate from this forum would then distance any official GW objections.
So if you've got em- send em to me and I'll see what I can do.

Hi!
As I have pointed out before the fastest way to earn a visit from the GW "inquisition" is to post online some of their art.
That's a big NO-NO!

Thats why I suggested that for our own personal enjoyment and reliving classic GW products in a completely non-commercial way, I am willing to host a webpage with the pics on them. It will not be advertised anywhere but here so it wont be out and about on the web.
If the GW guys come knocking, I'll take it down. Simple-no fuss. I think the important thing is that we can enjoy the pics. After all, it will only inspire us to play and buy more GW products.....so this drips with irony!

Hi!
Thats a good way of doing it, or just make the website password encoded and give the password to those you know.
Either way should be safe.

That's why I suggested the password as well.
I have a pet project in which I've been xeroxing the catalogue, advertizement and colour background pages of White Dwarfs and other magazines into a single three-ring binder.
I also have a Word document that I've been slowly putting together that catalogues all of the product codes for all of the Epic incarnations.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Hi!
This may turn out to be a good idea. Sort of a archive that is private and accessible by "authorized" members only. I have a lot of good stuff to share if if could do it this way.

just thought I would point out that even if it is password protected, it is still an infringement of GW copyright
just a comment
nothing to discuss
just a comment
stay cool

I am happy to have a look at doing this and seeing how feasible it could be.
Give me a few days to play with what I already have, then I will see what people want to send. I will PM contributors with the password.
This is a totally non commercial project for the private enjoyment of forum members, so I'll ask people not to give away the password. If asked, I will simply delete the site.
I'm frosty Jimbo. We have only just had that discussion and we dont need to go there again right now

Exactly, and this isnt for general www consumption... Its a "measured decision", "calculated risk", "insert trendy mangement phrase here"
OK, I've got an initial webpage up using Frontpage (OK I got motivated and it didnt take a few days at all!), but I am unsure of the best way to set a password, having never had to before.
Can anyone out there help?

Hi!
Ask netepic (Tom), who does this kind of stuff for a living, he'll know how to do it and relate instructions to you.
By the way how much space you have for files?
I hope its alot, I have about 3-4 GIG's worth....
