I opted to grab all the screenshots myself, rather than try and find a resource that already had them (or close enough). Some of it may be down to the tools I'm using, or just my lack of proficiency with them. I like how the whole thing turned out, but it took hours and hours to put together, and playing a game to farm for screenshots is a pretty different and altogether less fun experience than playing it just to play it. More specifically, work I don't get paid for. The other day on Brontoforumus, I described it as taking two things I enjoy doing - playing video games and talking about video games - and turning them into work. It wound up taking a lot longer to get those posts done and posted than planned, and it really wasn't a whole lot of fun.
