Light years, huh?
Mac Gamer has another Westlake update - Glenda Adams, Westlake's president, says
the code they are getting is "light years different code-wise than anything that ever ran on the Mac."There's not much past Wednesday's MacCentral comments... but it sounds pretty exciting! (Thanks to Rossco for the heads-up.) (Louis Wu 20:40:14 UTC) (permalink)
Celebrating in Style
Devastator, a member of Team Caucasians, sent us this picture of his team celebrating their win at the Qualifiers of the Halo Winter Season. I'm pretty amazed that they gave out trophies like that for the qualifying rounds - there were 100 iGames centers hosting qualifiers, and three rounds played... that's a LOT of trophies. Nonetheless, it's a fun pic. (Louis Wu 17:51:16 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 2 Previews organized
We've added a new subsection here at HBO - in the navbar, under 'Press Coverage', you'll find Halo 2 Previews. It's just a list of Halo 2 Previews posted on the net, with links to the original pages and the dates they were posted. Thanks to Proximity Zero for two that we didn't have on our list.

Vector graphics - now in vector format
Brian Hannan checked out the recently submitted weapons graphics extracted from the Halo manual, and decided that vector art should be available in vector format. He re-extracted the images, cleaned 'em up, and placed them all into a single EPS file. You can find this file (and a graphic showing what you can do with the artwork) on the Gun Schematics page.

You've got questions? We've got answers.
In response to a slew of questions sent to us (and asked on our forum) about the Pillar of Art contest, we've added a Frequently Asked Questions section. Check it out, and don't hesitate to send us mail if your question isn't answered. We've also reduced the maximum size of paintings to 5' x 6' - still rather large, but not the enormous 10' x 12' we'd originally listed. Apologies if this confounds anyone's plans.
