Was trying to help, not be a bummer at all. If he/she can put up a shot that good, surely they can do one as good that falls in the contest guidelines.

If he/she can put up a shot that good, surely they can do one as good that falls in the contest guidelines. well, if you read this months theme carefully it says "An approach late at night", so I don't think your shot qualifies too (but thats for people from aerosoft to decide), it more looks like early evening than late night, even dough you all ready changed your original post, which i think is not allowed also. As for this guy (Wouter14), he didn't just get wrong time of the day he also just departed from an airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for this guy (Wouter14), he didn't just get wrong time of the day he also just departed from an airport. I checked all the rules on the main screen-shot contest page before I changed my shot. Furthermore, it states that your shot can get removed if it does not comply and that you can repost a shot that does comply.Again, Im not at all trying to be a bummer! I love the shots here and that alone is enough for me to keep coming back to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc W. 0 Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 well my first attempt It's a different approach, but it's an approach: breaking hard to base Eric "Sammy"Are you using some add-on for the sky to look that way? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Share Posted January 26, 2009 Hello Folks,You can only re-enter if your screenshot has been deleted/removed by us. It does state this in the Announcement.If you find your entry has been removed then the chances are you have contravened one of the above and will have to re-enter.Folks if we start getting picky on rules there would just be to many, lets keep it plane (Pun intended) and simple and fun.

Sammy-E 3 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Are you using some add-on for the sky to look that way? Thanks!Yes, I use FEX (Flight Enhancement X) for the skies and clouds, GEX (Ground Environment X) +UTX-USA (Ultimate Terrain X USA) for the landclasses/scenery enhancements.First time I flew with all these "on", I just sat there for an hour amazed with the beauty of it Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalon 0 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I don't think many are edited.Me neither. I just spend alot of time setting the shot up - view, angle, location, etc. I use DBS Walk-and-follow once I fly into position, pause the sim - and sometimes use slew to place the plane exactly where I want it.

Can some one tell me how to post the pic so it is big on the screen? That would be nice Sign up for a free photobucket account, upload the shot and then copy/paste the bottom option (of 4 I believe), directly into your post here. The 4 options are in boxed-in fields, just underneath your uploaded photo as it shows up in your "albums". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobeprime 16 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 An Air France 747 flaring at Yerivan late at night.Image unedited.
