Post by: Rejolt on September 11, 2014, 04:33:27 PM

Post your favorite COH photo you still have!

We vote on the best in 48 hours.

You don't realize how bad arse the FX are in CoH until you snap a ton of screen shots per second:

Use an image hosting site like Photobucket or ImageCoast to upload the pic, then post a link here using the [ img ][ /img ] tags.

I was always more interested in scenery than character shots.
