In the northern hemisphere, July is a time for warm weather, taking vacations, and snapping photos of all the gorgeous places you're visiting. And while New Eden is hot in the west right now (topical!), the Sisters of EVE and the Illuminati Team are bringing you an all new event for the July month that will cause you to break out your camera drones.

In this new dev blog, we introduce the Sanctuary Image Contest, a chance to get out and explore space and earn some cool stuff for your troubles, plus get a chance to leave a permanent mark on New Eden.

The first week of submissions goes here.

Interesting. I'm slightly surprised that CCP is using someone else's image hosting site. Good that the "not invented here" bias didn't prevent CCP from using a good product.

Photography contest with rules that prevent the taking of good photos. Nice.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I think this is gonna be something different from usual CCP events. Which is great! Let CSM know what you think about it and we will be glad to pass the information down to CCP.

A contest that actually looks interesting! No alliance voting blocks. Exploration in the sense of looking around EVE (not the mini-games).

It looks like the entries will be limited to one per account but a clear statement might be best.

So just to be sure I understand, we need our pictures with the UI showing? Because they won't look as great D= Although I understand why you need the UI there...

Either way I will be giving all of these a shot! It's an interesting concept

Edit: Just to add on this, could we submit the gallery with both UI showing and UI hidden? So 20 pictures in total per group?

Correct yes, each tier can only be completed once per account.

Interesting concept :) It creates for a nice occasion to wander around the universe (and get podded when the 3rd set of images will have to be taken in 0.0 :p).

Please just create 2 separate galleries - one for you and one for us Smile Vetting the entries is gonna be tough enough as it is! Feel free to share your UI hidden gallery in this thread though, because I'm sure it will be very pretty!

Specified order would help tremendously. At least please label the pics so we know what we're looking at :)

The only UI elements that need to show are the ones we have asked for.

This is great! I already have several of the Group 1 images from previous screenshot excursions, but it will be fun to do again. Great to see the Sisters of Eve are promoting interstellar tourism.

Hopefully the next two tiers will give you some new stuff to go check out!

for Group 2, my suggestions:

Goon station in B-DBYQ (uncloaked and less than 10k from the undock)
Mr Vee Absolution in combat (this one must be taken from a expensive fitted T3 ship, uncloak and from less than 30k from him)
DBRB body in space surrounded by at least 100 TFI or tengu recs (this one is easy)

Big smile

Nice to see the live events coming back
