Welcome to the NZFF February 2013 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, FSX or P3D) 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://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 February 1st until midnight 28th February 2013, 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 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.

5) When the competition ends, a poll will open for members to vote for 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: "Photo-Real" Screenshots could incorporate a photo-real scenery area, photo-real textures, or be artistically modified to make it look like a photo (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 Four excellent prizes for this month’s competition very generously donated by Dean


The voting will take place after the competition closes at the end of the month and the winner with the highest vote will get a prize and their image on the NZFF banner for the month.

For the Months competition we have a total of 4 prizes on offer, for the four top-rated images, so this month, there will be not one, but FOUR winners!
Each of the 4 best entries will receive one complete U.S. state of photo-real scenery of their choice from the MegaSceneryEarth 2.0 range of photoreal scenery add-ons, which can be found here: http://www.pcaviator.com.au/store/home.php?cat=716

Winners can choose whether to download their chosen state MegaSceneryEarth 2.0 package, or have it delivered via the PC Aviator Australia DVD backup system (at no charge) to your mailbox, anywhere in the world!
Thank you this month’s prize sponsor

MegaSceneryEarth 2.0 is the ultimate in photoreal scenery for Microsoft Flight Simulator X (Also works perfectly in P3D). It is created from high resolution 50 cm per pixel aerial photography and gives you the most visually realistic scenery that today's technology can give you for FSX. Areas are available on a state by state basis and by Instant Download (DVD optional). Choose your favorite state and expand your area whenever you want to. We guarantee that once you've flown MegaSceneryEarth you won't ever want to go back to regular scenery.

There are over 20 U.S. states currently available in the range to choose from, and you can enjoy your scenery with the majority of coverage at a very high 50cm/pixel for many of the state packages (some areas in some states have 1m/pixel coverage)!

This is NOT repeating texture tile scenery, every square inch of every state with MegaSceneryEarth is UNIQUE, and what you would expect to see if you were flying over that area in the real world!

Total prize value is up to AUD$250.00

Oh dear Dean, this puts me in a bit of a quandary as I have been thinking of buying the SOCAL megascenery and now I have to decide - do I wait to see if I can pick one up as a prize or do I buy it and then think of another state that I might want to fly in?

Decisions decisions.....

Thanks Dean for your generosity with these prizes, well worth going for in my opinion groupwave.gif

I love the colours, with the Vulcan's green stripes repeated in the landscape.
