Over the coming months there will be some pretty big changes to the way you get information about the Excalibur project, from the kind of information we give you to the way we get it to you. As a first step in this we have set up an ST Excalibur fan page on Facebook where we will be posting regular updates about how things are going in the project, you will even get to see sneaky previews of parts of the game before we show them on the main page.

It would be great to see how many folks out there are following us, and even better to get some feedback from you on the project. If you want to join us you can follow the link above.

Is there a way to make the pictures huger? They're even smaller than the current images.

Facebook limits the sizes of images. You could never get a wallpaper from it.

You will have to wait for the item to be featured on our main site for bigger pics

The main page images show as equally small for me. I use Firefox, is that a problem?

sman789 · « **Reply #13 on:** March 08, 2010, 05:26:43 AM »

I use firefox too, but I don't think there's any problem. On the news articles you click a smaller picture and it takes the place of the bigger one after a few seconds of loading, but it's not wallpaper size. On the gallery/downloads pages you just click the size you want and it loads it.

MajorD · « **Reply #14 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:16:37 AM »

The wallpapers work fine, everything is less than 800X600, they aught to be twice as large.

FB automatically downsizes pictures, nothing that can be done about it. Only, Ctrl+mouse scroll to zoom in/out the page tho.

Good when absolutely needed, but always results in disappointing blur. Though, thanks.

Mark · « **Reply #17 on:** March 08, 2010, 05:19:33 PM »

The pics we post on Facebook arent for close up analysis and inspection, they will often be quick shots we have grabbed on the first tests and as such not fully representative of the finished product; if Facebook did allow you to see full screen images we would likely not post anything on there.

When the items are done and ready for close inspection they will be posted up on the main site for you all to look at.

I don't know how useful can be a microblog for a game dev team....
