You had one of the best shots right from the start. I knew you'd make finalist when I saw your screenshot.

Very well done Jake, enjoy the prize!  Tongue

Glad to hear there's enthusiasm!!

Judging by the fact that these contests are monthly, my guess is it'll start on the 1st of July.

By the way, I'm dying to enter a contest for the first time as well!!

First thing to do is to make sure that your shot is not wider than 800 pixels, and under 100kb in weight. Then, just under the SimV logo on this page and all the forum pages, where it says 'upload images', click on that, scroll down to the bottom. You should see a list of text entry boxes with a 'browse' button next to them. Click on that button, and a window will pop up. Navigate your way to the shot you want to enter, click on it, then click on open, and the little window will close, leaving the path to your image typed in to said text entry point. Click on 'submit form', and in a few moments, a new screen should come up. If your shot is within the guidelines, a table will be displayed with a code in the last column. copy that code in to a post window (i.e. the window you enter to type posts in) and if you click 'preview' your shot should display. If it does, then click post, and your shot is now out there for all to see!!!

Hope this helps!!

Regards from your plane-crashing, hippie-bashing, pain-in-the-backside spitfire boy. Wink

P.S. Don't worry, a mistake here will certainly not result in a ban. It's only repeated deliberate rule-breaking that can earn you a ban.

Oh yeah, and NEVER, EVER, EVER, insult the mods. It could turn out to be painful... 'nuff said Shocked

I'd suggest you try uploading a shot in one of the non-competition sections to see if you can do it... plus I wanna see what you're capable of! Grin
