Default doctored screenshots?

gonegold has a link to a new review of the gold Version (and recently ran a short article when the new patch came out.. probably why we just got a bunch of new blood on the forum)

and the review is so-so, but what the heck is this? doctored screenshots? they have multiple game screens open in front of each other, check it out:

Looks like doctored screenshots.

I wouldn't say "doctored" so much as "poor copy-paste skills".

As you should be able to see, all screenshots from #3 on have the corner of shot #2 left behind.

yeah, the guy that made those screen shots did a piss-poor job. Doesn't do the game justice.

The thing that floored me in the review was the comment about "unpronouncable" alien races.
