I smell Photoshop. D:

Wouldn't know how to use it even if I had it.

It is better NeoKnight. However, I would like you to try and make a... more space-like theme(we are talking about spaceships) and try to make the ship bigger in comparison to the image size. This because I can only give 400px width to any given picture, and at 400px that ship will look.... small

Wah!?! You never said the ships had to be in space! See: 

I dare you all to make the COOLEST pictures in the FreeSpace engine as you can. The only thing that matters is for it to look good. 

Nothing was mentioned about the mandatory requirement of a space theme.

But yeah, I can definitely see why spaceships in space would be preferable to those that...aren't. Unfortunately however, the only "cool factor" I'm capable of generating for a FS pic is a terrestrial skybox, so if it's space scenes you're looking for I really can't do much besides the random pressing of the Print Screen key whilst in external view during a mission. Which I'm sure no one really wants. But hey, good luck to everyone else out there who has or will submit a picture. There's been some beautiful stuff on this thread so far and I hope to see more.

Can't you just crop it as far as you can before resorting to resizing the whole pic?

@Scourge of Aces: I can crop it, and if I have to, I will, it was just a... notice for all the others.
@NeoKnight: Well, planet pictures can go just as good as space ones, again, it was just a notice. I like your picture and it looks okey!
Well, you could do one of the next two: make the Ulysses bigger(or I can crop it, your choice here) and you could try to do something with the background (sharpen it, or something like that). Anyway, your next picture has a high change of getting in!

[NeoKnight]

To be honest, I'm not very proficient in the art of image editing (for those who didn't notice...), so I don't think I'll attempt to tamper with the background. Not til I know what I'm doing. But if anyone wants to use the image as-is or polish it up themselves, they're more than welcome to do so.

Come on guys, this is a chance to show a BATTLE!  Let's see some bombs and beams in these images.

Technically, no, but it's a chance to show one ship fighting at least (given the one ship per image limit.)

Frankly, the low quality of the wiki articles is turning me off from contributing.

General Battuta, I know that the wiki isn't top notch, but I would be thankful if you could tell me what you don't like. A bit more explicit. I'm a self-learner here, so its bound to be bad. So just give me a hand by telling me what you don't like please!

[General Battuta]

Well, if this is a general Starships wiki and not particularly a FreeSpace wiki, I think it's important to give out-of-universe context for the ships. Someone who doesn't know anything about FreeSpace is going to feel kind of clueless reading these articles.
