New Screenshot Competition !
« on: April 19, 2008, 08:05:59 pm »
We've got a new screenshot competition open for you - it's called "Drama In The Skies" :P

Please look in the Screenshot Library and you'll see the full description ;)

We'd like to see your most dramatic and exciting moments in the simulator - you can use any EHM plane at any location, take the shot from inside or outside the plane... just try and tell an exciting story with your picture !

If anyone would like any help or advice on how to take good screenshots, please post your query here - this is a really great way to remember your best flights ;)

Good luck everyone!

If any of you are wondering how to take good looking screenshots, there's a great introduction to the subject here that should give you some ideas ;)

And if you haven't got it, the Flight1 "F1View" free utility available here makes it really easy to get the angle and level of zoom you want when composing your pics :P

Why not upload your 'practice' shots to the Screenshot Library so other pilots can give a bit of feedback..?

There's just under a week to go to get your most dramatic screenshot entered in this competition guys :P

We've already got a good number of entries but I know there are a few more of you out there just itching to show off what you get up to in the sim..!

Give it your best shot, pilots ;)

Callum,

Your signature looks very impressive but I'm afraid it is way too big !

The Rules and Regulations section of the Forum indicates that:-

"Signatures

The moderators encourage the use of signature graphics although for reasons of transmission speed (please remember some members only have a dial up connection) and/or server load the following rules are applied:
The entire signature area may not under any circumstance be higher than 180 pixels. It may include up to 2 banner images, not sized any larger than 350 pixels wide by 120 pixels high and are to be no larger than 40kb in size. If two banner graphics are used, they must be placed side by side and not one above the other."


Please could you amend it to fit in with these size restrictions? Many thanks ;)
