In related news am I supposed to be taking a printscreen or a screenshot of windowed mode? That's a screenshot, which obviously only contains the window itself. I noticed someone above me had a printscreen of their desktop though
You need to show which OS you're playing on. So I think you need to capture your desktop (or another window) under the game window.
KNOW THY SELFIE
I'll be there in a second, so don't you ninja me!
EDIT: A combination of unfortunate circumstances and an abysmal internet-connection (including a download that restarted at 99 %) have made it so that I am late for the party, which was this beta. Yet here I am, to contribute what little I still can and since it was a great party, I have to at least show my face.
…and, why, yes this is the beta in the background, which just finished installing!
Ah, @justtravelinthrough edited his post so I think that brings us to 50... That's 50 right..? That makes the total of selfies 50...? I haven't miscounted?

I'm not sure some of the effectively faceless ones will count though... Better get more just to be sure.
Now, originally, I assumed that next to 00zim00, Svar was disqualified, due to her mask. This would be problematic, as many more people used masks down the line. However, going through the pictures, I'm actually thinking now that it's Rodrian's selfie that is invalid, which would mean that masked selfies are valid. I'm going to seperate them out below, but we'll see.
@Bengoshi: Why did you cut them 169x266, rather than 210x330?
Now, let's check the pictures that came after. Remember that Dee has given no confirmation, so we gotta make sure here we're counting it right.
The following 19 people should all be valid entries, making it a total of 45:
Finally, we have some animals. While Mythrialus' Dog and Tresset's Turtle were included in another selfie, Tresset's Snake and Adul's Parrot managed to make a selfie on their own. I have no idea how valid these are.
We're a ways away from unlocking that first Selfie Portrait, but I'm confident that we can get at least the first one. If you have friends who play, you can also bring them over to your place and take a snapshot of them playing your copy of the game. As long as the photos are of different people, we don't mind multiple submissions in this category.
The following two are double entries, and therefor invalid: BillyYank & mf2112
@Sjerrie: I don't think your original submission counted, so you may want to still make a proper one!
These are the exact rules: we want to see you playing the beta. Take a selfie (or have a friend snap a photo of you) while you're playing the beta, or somehow showcasing the beta in the same picture.
So, it has to be the beta version. And the rules don't mention "you" can't be an animal or in a mask
I would have posted earlier, but I was away from my pc during Easter.
If I had more time I'd have fashioned a ninja mask and got my cat in the the picture, but she's downstairs somewhere, and I reckon the invisible deadline is about to pass (if it hasn't already).
Oh, and on the extreme chance this is picked to be baldurised, I demand long flowing Rapunzel-like hair in my portrait
Masked selfies do count. Animal selfies won't count toward the milestone if you've already posted a selfie.
The rules don't say that the "you" has to be human, but common sense does dictate that we're looking for proof of people playing the beta. If you have a human friend that you can convince to submit a selfie, or allow you to take a photo of them, while they're playing or showcasing the beta, that will count.
@Thels The two that didn't count in that first batch were mine and @00zim00 , because we weren't showing the beta in our pictures. My second selfie counts.
Well, if the deadline is today it's unlikely, barring a miracle, that we get 50 more selfies. We've done well the last few days, but it took us almost a month to get the 50 we've got just now.
I'm content with 2
(That said, I wouldn't say no to a third, if 50 more people are ok with showing us their faces in the next 5mins )

So this is me. Mind that my hood kept accidentally falling on my face during the photo shoot. But you can still see the top of my chin.

Yes it's a very bad hair day...

Then we also have 4 masked people. If they count, then we got a total of 49:
Azzara

Tresset's Snake
BillyYank & mf2112
@Sjerrie: I don't think your original submission counted, so you may want to still make a proper one!
@Thels Tresset posted 2 selfies - of him and his snake
And the BG forum strikes again.
Challenge accepted - and completed!
It is Irenicus Dungeon, I swear! (bad camera, sorry!)
Is it okay to post the selfie with the 1.3 ver?

@Dee: How long do we have for the remaining 49?
@kaguana: Means you could totally make a masked picture of yourself! Either that, or have one of your pets in front of the screen, and take a picture.
Not long. A few hours, maybe.
Yay!
2 new portraits ^_^
Why u settle for 2?
Oddly, that would also mean that 00zim00's submission counted, since Rodrian's submission also didn't include the beta.
