Welcome to the NZFF Screenshot Competition for April 2011.

This month's rules are as follows (Please read them).


1) The screenshot image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program (FS2004, FSX, X-Plane, etc), 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 main component 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://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm. 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 1st until 30th April 2011, with only one entry of a single image per member. You can change your submission before the closing date if you want.
To change use the edit button at the bottom of your post, just delete the old one and replace it with a new one If you post comments using the quote or reply button please edit out all images from your reply or quote.
If you have any queries about the rules please PM me for clarification before posting your entry.

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 if we have one donated.

6) This month's theme: Any flightsim Aircraft (free or payware) Heading to the Classic Fighters 2011 Airshow Omaka (Please state 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 another excellent prize for this month’s competition very generously donated by Captain Sim

For the winner of the April 2011 NZFF Screenshot competition the prize is any download product of their choice from the Check out the download software titles

Thank you this month’s prize sponsor

A huge choice of subjects, but really there's only one for me -- AMY heading out from her home at Ashburton.

Great shot. How exactly do you get your scenery to look so much like Google?
