Welcome to the NZFF December 2011 Extra Special Screenshot Competition.


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 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 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.
No 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 31th Decemberr 2011, 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 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.

6) This month's theme was picked by our sponsor : Christmas in New Zealand (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 SEVEN excellent prizes for this month’s competition very generously donated by
At the end of the month when the competition has closed our sponsor will pick five entries by a ballet taken from all entries entered in the competition the five picked in the ballet will each receive a 50% discount vouchers each off any download product of their choice from and still be eligible to win one of the major prizes in the voting.

At the close of the competition the voting will take place and the winner with the highest votes and the runner up will both get a prize each with the winner’s image placed in the NZFF Banner for the month.

After the reindeer ran out of steam Santa had to hire the Marlborough Helicopters chopper to finish his round I managed to catch him as he was doing his last house just off the end of the Picton Airport and just before the sun came up

Trying to inject a bit of boring old "good taste" into this Christmas theme, but I can see it's *hopeless* laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif



A fully present-loaded Aerosoft Twin Otter climbing slowly out of the morning mist of Queenstown ... santa_cool.gif

Can anyone spot the Christmas/Easter egg?

EDIT: Well ... try looking in the hills to the right of Santa's Otter winkyy.gif

Whew! Been away again for a few weeks and come back to another monthly comp already! Also stumped for ideas, so I will throw in a quick dedication to the guys and gals summering it down at Scott Base this festive season, the only place near sea level in the Southern Hemisphere for a real White Christmas! Thanks to Ricardo from OzX for the paint, and of course Aerosoft for their sterling AntarcticaX. Will have another play with this pic later as I just realised I cut out our flag, oops! icon_redface.gif

Some great screens posted up already team thumbup1.gif Good stuff!
