May Screenshot Competition

[ardypilot]

This month, Aerosoft are sponsoring our screenshot competition. This means that the person who wins with the best screenshot this month will receive the 'MyTraffic X (for FSX and FS2004)' on DVD product from Aerosoft, which can be viewed at their website: www.aerosoft.com ... Now that's an incentive for you all to enter!

Aerosoft have also created a seperate special deal for all NZFF members, reguarless if you win this competition or not where they will ship their products to New Zealand for a discounted price. For more information, click here

Here is our 13th monthly Screenshot Competition, which is free to enter for all the members of NZFF*

This month's rules are as follows:

1) The screenshot must be from a Flight Simulator program (FS2002, FS2004, FSX, X-Plane, IL2 etc), and the position of the shot must be somewhere over New Zealand territory.

2) The image size must be as close as possible to 984 pixels wide- read the uploading screenshot guide to find out how to re-size your shot. Please keep a high res version saved on your computer as the admin may request it from you at the end of the month to convert it into a site banner!

3) Images can be submitted from May 1st to May 31st 2007, with only one entry per member. You can change your submission if you want, just delete the old one and replace it with a new one.

4) On May 31st, a poll will open and run for a few days to decide who has the best image, then the winner will have a cropped version of their image appear in the NZFF banner as well as receiving the Aerosoft prize!

5) Editing is allowed, if you know how to do it. The more stunning your shots look the better!

6) This month's theme is 'My Hometown' so your screenshot must display or represent your home town (where you were born, currently live, or have lived in the past) in Flight Simulator. If you are a non NZ resident, you are fortunate because you can choose any kiwi town as your own... be creative! (This idea was taken from VOZ)



* As we are offering payware prizes, each member who enters must have at least a 2 month membership (signed up before the end of February) at NZFF before they can enter.

Not many freeware that are fully compatible with fsx. I had to revert back to the default fsx nzwn because the afcad on Jon and Robin etc was driving me nuts! I really want that prize

I am quite lucky -born in the Naki, lived in Auckland and Palmy and now living in the Bay so have a choice of a few airfields - but out of that lot my Tauranga scenery is the best. Those in Wellington that have Robin's scenery have something nice to work on!

[creator2003]

oh nice its been awhile since ive put a shot in .
i do have the city of my home town that i just so happen to build myself {agns by Ian Warren & Robin Corn for photoreal mapping {i didnt know it then but it would be all worth it if i got this months cool prize (thanks aerosoft}
well no harm wishing for a win is there? let the best town win

[scon]

I will have to think what I can do with Auckland, that will make people think

Wow I wish I lived in Auckland

[Zöltuger]

Auckland it is then. I wouldn't feel right doing Christchurch seeing as I support the BLUES

[PILOT WARRIOR]

dude you have just under 30days to come up with anything ,the only thing i see wrong in that entry mite be the width but other than that no problems

[Jimmy]

I'm going to put something special together this mounth. Already got some shots, will spend the next few days taking more and sorting it all out, editing and so on

This is one of the better themes for screenshot comps, gives alot of flexiblity for the screenie, aircraft, location in that area etc... unless we have to have it at the airport? na of course not, this shal be great

Looking forward to seeing all the entries

btw, brenananx, goodluck with that credit card at 14years old or whatever
