Starships are the shield, sword and signature for the pilots of EVE. They are created both to tear down entire empires and to gather and transport the resources needed to build anew. What new machine will you bring to the warfront? Will yours be a craft of elegance and beauty? Will the mere presence of it prove more intimidating than any arsenal a pilot could load into its bays? Design a starship and enter it into the EVE Online Create A Starship Contest for a chance to have your dream ship become a reality. The 1st Place winner will have their ship added to the premiere space MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Game), EVE Online where countless pilots will build and fly the winners' creation.

Show us your real concept art skills and get judged by the EVE Online creative team! Examples of how an entry should look are here (image) and here (video). Entrants will need to provide their entry from all six orthogonal views in order to qualify for further consideration as a potential winning entry.

Experience EVE Online, free for 14 days, and discover the richest gameplay and most engaging community in online gaming. To download the client and create your free trial account, visit trial.eveonline.com.

I was just wondering from an archivers point of view an such as going through page after page trying to save each picture becoming highly...tedious...and yes, I know. Seems a bit OCD but meh...I can't help it. I love having beautiful ships like thatr cycling through my desktop :3 so does anyone know if that file exists or will exist or imma jus plain screwed? If so, even if the information isn't good, please send me a note telling me, yes? Please? Any help would be most appreciated!
