I think you should make full use of photos which portray the badassery of our sport. Anything that looks painful and/or athletic gets my vote! (or has me in it. I like feeling cool)

I concur, however the pictures aren't mine. Some people are uncomfortable with their pictures being used, especially when they're being used on a corporate website. Hence, I like to get permission first.

You may use any pic or video I post to the interwebz for Belegarth purposes. I got stuff on photobucket and youtube.

Except the litterball and ikis trial's vids, those were made by Bhakdar, and you'd have to ask him on those.

Of course you can take whatever you like Derian. I'll just throw some up here that I kinda dig...

These are from WW-V:
Image
Shino's face is funny, but I just like how the guy has mentally given up, even though a blow has not been struck yet.

Image
Moses losing an arm... looks like he is throwing it at Aleksii

These are from CW-XII
Image
Is Etain spearing Elwrath in the nuts? You decide...

Image
Ralimar's lady, Amanda, took this photo. I just liked the look on my face when Elwrath catches me looking the wrong way.

The photo I used was taken by Thrax, btw. I'm sure he wouldn't mind--he loves promoting.

I'm glad that getting punched in the face looks cool, but I wouldn't recommend we use many shield-to-face pics in advertising to new people as it certainly doesn't feel cool and is discouraged in the BoW.

To be honest, I don't remember doing it. In fact, I can't think of any instance where I've specifically aimed for someone's head with a shield. However, it is a high-quality picture. Also, one of the reasons our fighting community is different than others is because of our leniency when it comes to shield contact. I see no reason to not promote that.

I wish i could take credit for these, but i can't. The black and whites are from a gallery i saw at some point on here. Almost every picture is **** amazing. The other is actually a dag picture, but i think shows some spectacular garb and intensity. The one with the great sword wielder is my favorite picture of all time.
