The ultimate source for rare UO Screenshots!

Welcome to the only web page devoted to displaying the strangest, rarest screenshots of uo events, players, situations, etc. If you have a picture to submit, please contact [email protected]
Please send in all of your screenshots that you feel are appropriate for the page. We will look at them and determine if they will be posted.

I really enjoyed your site a great deal...
in fact I rarely respond to page creators requests for comments. I truely enjoyed the Lady British
comic... and I am a devotee of the good Lord in rule.

Hey!  I have been experiencing serious computer problems which is why the page hasn't been updated in such a long time.  I have a huge headache tonight so the page will be updated tomorrow.  I, as well as the entier Rare UO Screenshots staff, sincerely appologize for not having the page updated.  We have a ton of new screenshots in our email box, and these screenshots will be posted tomorrow.  Thanks so much for continuing to check the page for new updates.

Ok everyone.  Things have been busy during the past few days and I haven't had time to update the page. Tomorrow I will post all of the new screenshots, and possibly implement the new layout.

We may finally get a domain.  I know it has been promised for a long time, and finally the time has come.  Rare UO Screenshots should have its own domain by the end of next week at the latest!!!  Until then, this remains the official web page =]

Well this is the first real update in about a week.  Thanks once again to those who are sending in screenshots.  A few new screenshots have been added today, so check down at the bottom of the page to see the names of the screenshots.

Heya!  I stayed a little longer on vacation than planned. Apparantly the page was not updated while I was gone and I appologize. I am VERY worn out so I'm about to head to bed. The page will be updated tomorrow and things should be back on track again. I, as well as the rest of the Rare UO Screenshots staff appologize for any inconvenience. Please check back tomorrow afternoon for new images.

The email situation has been resolved.  Unfortunately, this means all of the previous emails in my mailbox were deleted.  Surprisingly, my mailbox was sent back over the limit today alone =]  Fortunately, hotmail gives 3 days before doing what they did to me last night.  This means I will update and post all new screenshots, then delete the emails they came in.  Hopefully this will keep me within the size limit.  Thanks to everyone who is faithfully sending in the screenshots to us!!   You are really helping us out because creating a library of rare screenshots is a very hard thing to do with only a few people involved.  So thanks again!!

In regards to the previous message about the domain.  I suppose I was just very angry and was wishfuly thinking.  I have been looking into domains but they cost a lot of money...money that I don't have to spend at the moment.  If you or anyone you know can offer me an email address that will provide me with at least 10 megs of space, please let me know!!  Thank you!

Now onto the other serious topic.  Many email files from people were deleted by hotmail.  I have a list of names of the people whose email I was not able to access.  Hotmail was not allowing me to open the mail, however I could view the sender's name, subject, etc.  I saved a list of the people who sent in email with screenshots that could not be read due to the file size situation.  If your name is on the list below, please resend when the situation is cleared up.  Thank you.   The list is:

      Paul Villarreal Feb 24 1999 more pics! 266k
      Jonathan Davis Feb 24 1999 Rare Pics From Vince of Catskills 473k
      Mitchell Ornstein Feb 23 1999 Screen Shots... 1246k
      Jason Rhodes Feb 24 1999 new pic 307k
      Micky Olsson Feb 23 1999 Black Wisp 284k
      Derek Davidson Feb 25 1999 Dead GM pics 445k
      JOHN METCALF Feb 25 1999 uo screenshot 1906k 
      Dank Feb 25 1999 (none) 1469k * tom likewesky Feb 25 1999 Rare Picture 171k
      Marc Ruttkowski Feb 24 1999 is this the thing you want? 190k

If you have sent one of these messages, please don't resend until I give the OK.  When you are able to send the email again, I will notify you on the page.   Thanks for understanding!

*URGENT MESSAGE*
Ok...Hotmail decided to suspend my access on its server due to the very large size of my account.  Please do not send in anymore emails right now.  This is the last straw.  I am deffinately getting a domain tonight!!  This means I will also have a REAL email account without restrictions.  Until then, please don't send in anymore rare screenshots.  If you have already sent one in and haven't gotten a reply from me, please resend when the domain is created.  Everyone who has been replied to via email should have his/her screenshot(s) posted on the page.  The emails that havent been replied to are probably going to be deleted automatically by hotmail.  I sincerely appologize to those who took time out of their day to email me in order to keep the new screenshots coming in.  The entire Rare UO Screenshots staff sincerely appologizes and we will most likely get our own domain tonight.  The URL will obviously be posted on this page asap!!  Once again we appologize to those who have sent in screenshots that can not be accessed.

2:00 PM:
I am not going to be able to update the screenshots until about 6 PM this evening.  I have lots of stuff going on today and I won't be home until 6.  Please check back around 6 to see the new screenshots.  Thanks =]

9:20 PM:
Ok hotmail decided to bog down again tonight.  No more screenshots can be added until tomorrow =[

Thanks once again to those who have sent in their rare screenshots!   If the screenshot(s) you have sent in hasn't been posted today, it will most likely be here tomorrow.

One more thing...Each of the subpages (Events, Players, etc) has been taking very long to load due to the new screenshots that have been added.  Most likely, the pages are going to just have text on them with links to the actual pictures.   This will make loading time much less, and will make navigating the page a lot easier.

8:55 PM:
We have recieved so many rare screenshots today that we may not be able to add them all tonight.  Please look down at the bottom of the page to see each picture that was added so far.  More are still being added tonight.  Hopefully we can get all of them up tonight, if not the rest will be posted tomorrow.  Thanks again to everyone who is sending in the screenshots and helping us extend our library of rare uo screenshots!!

8:34 PM:
Rare UO Screenshots may be getting its own domain!  Yes that's right.  The server I am using now, FortuneCity, is a wonderful free service however the page is extremely slow during the afternoon and early evening.  The email server that I am using, Hotmail, is also a wonderful service but is almost impossible to connect to during the average working day (8AM - 6PM).  Getting our own domain would mean our own POP3 email account as well as our own domain!  If we do decide to get a domain, it will be posted here (obviously =]).

7:49 PM:
We have decided it would be better to list the names of the people who donate the images.   I have no idea why we weren't doing this earlier, but everyone who submits an image now will be given credit for it.

A message board is going to be added to this page sometime tonight or tomorrow =]

Once again the Rare UO Screenshots Staff members would like to thank everyone for visiting the page.  Special thanks go out to those who have taken the time to email us with comments, suggestions, and rare screenshots!

3:21 PM:
The Rare UO Screenshots staff would like to appologize for the false information given about the counselor wearing a green tribal mask.  I was informed on how the counselors acquire these items by serving many hours and things of that nature.  We sincerely appologize for the incovenience this may have caused.

The new comic has been added. Ok so it's not perfect but we had to rush it so it would be released tonight! Hopefully you will enjoy it! =] You can view the comic by clicking here!

6:24 PM:
Another comic is on the way!
Hopefully you enjoyed the last comic we created for you. Due to the lack of rare screenshots today, we are going to create another comic to hopefully keep you satisfied with our page.
The comic should be posted in about an hour or so, so feel free to check back. You can view our other comic by clicking here!

What can I say. I am shocked at the amount of hits on this page!! Because of its popularity, a new layout and design will be coming shortly. We are also adding a new "comics" section to the page. Keep checking back!! Remember to email us with any questions, comments, suggestions, as well as any rare screenshots that you may have. Thanks!

12 PM:
I would like to thank uoss.stratics.com for posting a link to this page!! Within 5 minutes of the post, literally hundreds of hits were coming in! You guys are the best. Thanks again!

The News Crew:
We currently have a news crew consisting of 5 people. When there are major events, speaches, or other important happenings in UO, you can expect our news crew to have detailed screenshots as well as information on the event.

Note: It is very hard getting our hands on RARE screenshots. Sure there are lots of strange ones floating out there but we try to bring you only the best we can find.
