2,000+ Vintage Screenshots - Vanilla - Kunark - Velious - and beyond

[Aelzrith]

Back in 2000, when I began playing EQ, I found the screenshot key by accident.

From then on, I used that key like a shutter on a camera to capture years of EQ.

From a research standpoint, I hope something useful can come from this.

Enjoy the adventures of Aelzrith Neverest (and the other Zriths) of the Luclin server.

Enjoy the nostalgia!
