Dan, why do the new screens appear last?

Gramphos · September 21, 2001, 12:18

You should invert the list to have the newest show up first.

For Apolytoners that want to came directly to the new screens I provide this link

Dan Magaha FIRAXIS · September 21, 2001, 14:33

I considered that, but when Civ newbies come to the site, the screenshots make more sense when viewed in the admittedly loose order they're already in. The direct link on the front page "latest updates" area takes you directly to the new images.

But then there should be different dates on the different screens. Now a Civ newbie will think that all screens were added today.

Nah, he admitted on the front update thingy that there were NINE new screenshots

He thinks that all civ newbies can count to nine

I still think that there should be a title over each screen or be different pages (as ask the civ team and developer update)

I don't have a 21" monitor. How can I resize the new screenshots so I can see the whole picture? (am using IE 5)

What is your resolution?

DonJoel · September 22, 2001, 05:50

Sorry wrong thread.

Dugrik · September 22, 2001, 08:38

Thanks Gramphos, it was 800x600. I changed it to 1024x768 and could see the whole picture, although everything was tiny.

The screens are 800x600, and if you want to see them with that resolution you have to save them to the HD and open them with an application that can view images full screen.

civ newbies should die.

Pembleton · September 22, 2001, 09:50

I never thought there would be so many responses to such an insignificant topic. And everyone was once a Civ newbie, even you. I wasn't quite sure if you were joking or not with that comment.

Inverse Icarus · September 22, 2001, 15:14

no. i was born into civ.

monolith94 · September 22, 2001, 16:42

Have fun leading a very lonely life. . . Born by the civ - die by the civ. I can imagine you dying of dehydration after a 36 hour civ binge, crawling to the sink, desperately gasping for life. . .

He may be a civ newbie (which I actually doubt) but at least he is not a LIFE newbie.

Inverse Icarus · September 22, 2001, 16:53

i feel like a fish out of civ.

i mean water...

i think the real reason was to confuse peoples like me..
