Hey all you screenshot masters...

I'm US Navy and am heavily involved in Naval Aviation.  My work computer always has a favorite "shot of the week" from the SimV on my desktop set as my background.  I get a lot of traffic by my desk, including many higher ranking officers, and regulars stop by to see what bird I have on and make comments.  Many even make requests..."what about this aircraft, what about that, this would make a great picture"....etc.

Sooooo, I've been asked by many to make requests...lol.  So what I would like to do is pick a plane and see if anyone would like to try and give me the best shot for a desktop background.  A "mini-contest" if you will....

Would anyone be interested?

Go for it and see if people are interested.  I have a feeling they will be.  As long as you pick good planes.

oohh i like the sound of this, il have to get photo shop installed...as some FS addons

@double farvel
its a good shot, but the aircraft looks too... stuck on, you need to play around with layers and brigthtness and contrast a bit more with both layers of the picture to get the blending just right. but apart from those its good Cheesy
