Gunreal news update Thread

I've tried twice now to submit a Gunreal news update (posted one last weekend, and again yesterday, trying to do it always on a Friday for weekend traffic) but it isn't showing up in the news list. As far as I know, all rules/requirements are met. Here is the message code:

For those who have been following the development of Gunreal for UT2004, there are a few notable updates that have been added to the mod, as the 1.0 release approaches.

First, the FireGun has been revised and replaced by the Destroyer superweapon (seen above), which is what was envisioned for this weapon in the first place, back when Gunreal was just an idea. It still burns the crap out of things, just in a much more... destructive fashion. I mean, that's good, right? Of course it is. On to the next things...

Perhaps most important, placeable/upgradeable turrets have been added to the mod, allowing you to deploy your own minions, who's lots in life are to shoot/destroy/kill. UT2004's "Adrenaline" pickups have been replaced by turret-building currency, which in turn can be refunded at a shopping terminal if you prefer cash, and just want the guns.

So, that's the deal until Unreal Tournament 3 comes around, and 'Ground War' development begins, which will be the full, evolved form of Gunreal.

Lol, if you read each news post you submitted inside your Mod Profile, here's what Chunky (our news auther) said:

"Please reduce image size to 270x202 (20k) before resubmitting."

That is one of the requirements. You have to make sure the image is below 20k in size. Hope you understand, especially since our site is meant to cater to people with all connections, and our front page can get pretty busy.

If you fix your image size, we will put it on the front page.

lol, oh, I see. Thanks for the pointer.

Rather than shrink the image dimensions, is it enough if I just bring the file size under 20k?
I really, really want that central image to be fill the width the of the post, like it is.

Man, I really can't wait for this mod.

I believe you certainly can since it still loads the same.

lol, now now, this is just a help wanted thread.
