Time for Studio V's Daily Hotshot! Screenshots chosen by myself showing off our members multiple screenshot talents.

Today's pick.....

The Super Sabre Just Got Superer!!


...

Picture -
Fitter's
first image from his thread "Incredible Talent". He shows off Mr Lucian Lie's great F-100 Super Sabre, and the lighting, weather and the way the aircraft is offset from the centre of the image sums it up nicely. The Super Sabre itself almost "frames" the image, especially on the left-hand side with it's tail. What really stands out is the lighting though - it looks like it's just before dusk, as the sun is just beginning to set, and the Super Sabre is gleaming nicely....

Want to comment yourself on the pic? Expect another Hotshot tomorrow!!

You've got to love the way the reflect creates a realistic look to the aircraft. A typical Fitter quality pic.  Smiley

Oh..Thanks to choose this one for today's hotshot...Well I like the shot but in fact the best shot in that thread was the last one.  
 
I have told before and I will say again...A few days ago, after turn off of the light the computer,  I have removed from the slots my memory cards...512mb RAM actually,  
After wait 5 minutes I put it in place again and for my surprise the result was simply superb!...Specially in the graphic quality  and a fps improvement.  
 
The only things I've lost with this operation was that things like the auto log in and passwords for some sites, e-mail and msn messenger just vanished...I mean when I enter in a site IE ask me again if I want the password to be saved, and msn lost all records in the log in and passwords already saved before that operation. This will also happen with some shortcuts in the windows desktop.  
 
It seems that the memory cards keep records of many FS9 old set up's...committing the general acting of the computer.

Try by your own risk Wink 8)

Fitter, I don't think removing ur RAM should affect ur settings, since all data stored in RAM is lost on shutdown. If there is no power running through the RAM chips it can hold no info. They are described as volatile, whereas non-volatile memory like ROM, do not need to be periodically refreshed. Hence removing RAM chips when ur PC is off can have no effects on it if they are properly placed back before u restart. Your improved graphics and fps can be attributed to a faster flow of data between ur RAM and it slots, or mayb one of the chips werent properly set in before, but settings like IE and ur desktop are actually stored on ur HD, else they would be lost at every restart.
