Welcome to the NZFF December 2012 Screenshot Competition.

This month's rules are as follows (Please read them).
If you have any queries about the rules please PM me for clarification before posting your entry.

1) The screenshot image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program (FS2004 or FSX,) and the position of the shot must be from somewhere within the New Zealand territory.

2) Some editing is allowed (if you know how to do it.) Additional images - either screenshots or "real" images can be added - but the biggest majority of the image should always be of a Flight sim screen capture.

3) The images must be jpg and size must be at least 1024 pixels wide and no wider than 1280 pixels -- A good free resizing program can be found at http://www.faststone.org/FSResizerDownload.htm
Faststone resize how to http://nzff.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17934&hl=
3a) No frames or txt to be left on the image. Please keep a high resolution version saved on your computer; the admin may request it from you at the end of the month to convert into a site banner!

4) Images can be submitted from December 1st until midnight 31st December 2012, with only one entry of a single image per member.
You can change your image anytime up until 1 hour before the closing time.
To change use the edit button at the bottom of your post, just delete the old image and replace it with a new one If you post comments on an entry using the quote or reply button please edit out all images from your reply or quote.

5) Soon after the competition ends, a poll will open for members to decide who has the best image, and then the winner will have a cropped version of their image appear in the NZFF banner as well as receiving the prize for the month.

6) This month's theme "RED" (Please state Aircraft details and over what part of New Zealand the image was taken)

I ask all members to please patronize all our very generous prize sponsors.

We have Five excellent prizes for this month’s competition very generously donated by

At the end of the month when the competition has closed and votes counted the winner will receive two downloads of their choice from Just Flight plus their image will go on the NZFF Banner for the month. Also the second, third and fourth place getters will each get one download of their choice from Download site

Thank you this month’s prize sponsor

A gorgeous red sunset makes the South Island look more like a Martian landscape! Aircraft is again the PMDG Boeing 737-800, and the scenery is FTX South Island.

Yep, it is nice, if you have Firefox and 'view image' it'll show up on a dark background, which is more like the original, I guess.
