Thanked 324x in 219 Posts Gil: 5,189 Bank: 36,094 Total Gil: 41,284 Donate  | Post up some of your favorite Vana'diel scenery! Simple concept, I think ... I sometimes just like to take SSs because the scenery is pretty.
In one of the valleys in La Theine Plateau while camping Tumbling Truffle: 
The waterfall in Jugner Forest: 
I just thought this was a "wistful" kind of shot, like she's waiting for someone to come home. This is South Gustaberg. 
I think everyone likes this, Yuhtunga Jungle near SSG: 
Yes, the horror, the horror, but when you take away the thoughts of death and anarachy, the Dunes really is a tropical paradise: 
Not really a special scene but the sunset was gorgeous and it's just another lovely shot I took: 
Anyway, post up some of your favorite scenery/pretty shots you've taken over the years. |  | ::Quote Selected::  | | The following user says "Thank You" to Aksannyi for above post: | | | | 03-15-2007, 01:30 PM | #2 (permalink) | | NINOMIYA-KUN!!

Come to think of it, FFXI didn't really have many 'Amazing' areas, they're all fairly realistic, especially compared to COP.  I will fly you to the heavens
we can make an early start.

Love it here. 
A lovely screeny ruined by dead people - I love the island. 
Before they stuck an ugly HNM there - I found this by accident.

FFXI is full of some really nice areas. I love Blueblade Fell. I actually didn't go there until I finished CoP and got the cs there. That made it all the better. I really like the Riverne areas, especially how you can see one island from another. So far most of the ToAU areas seem rather dark and dreary compared to the rest of the game.
though I guess the new areas do give you some good shots from time to time.

Anyway, here are three from me. Sorry for the lack of cropping and the chat logs. I lost a bunch of pictures at the end of last year, and so I kind of have to work with what I had sitting around. Plus, I didn't feel like cropping.
I love how beautiful this Purgonurgo Isle is. Kirst and I went there some time ago, just to relax and take a break from the stress of the game. 
We also went to the top of Parrdamo Tor, which was fun. I like the view, but my screenshot doesn't do it justice. 
And it may seem quaint, but I really love LaTheine, and the crag there especially. I still remember way back in '03 when I first saw the Holla Crag. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen in a game.

I'm proud to be a +1 fail though, Necropolis. It's better than not failing at all, I say!^^

But still, a Fail +1 isn't a Fail +2 so there's still room for improvement.  Sanctuary of Zi'tah! "In this world, the one who has the most fun is the winner!"
