Hi all, and welcome to edit this, back after a little break Wink. This fortnight's topic is slightly different....as I want to see some;


















Splash Screens!


...




Yep, you heard me right....It can be any picture, as long as it's edited, and it has text for one of Microsoft's flight simulators on it....

A useful truetype font can be found over at nonodes which I now believe has a few more nodes so it's easier to get in Wink


...

THE RULES:

1) Images may be edited in ANY way (normal edits or composites)
2) The image has to have text for a microsoft flight simulator (CFS allowed too)
3)The Gallery Judges will make their choices much like the Gallery Gates - if there are more than 5 entries there will be a poll going up with their top 5 choices
4)Post your entries in this thread as a clickable thumbnail or link
5)The competition closes at 8PM GMT on Saturday 17th November
6) Finally the most important rule....enjoy yourself...editing is fun


This is such an easy thing to do, I expect loads of entries Wink....good luck all Smiley

EDIT: Everyone is allowed to enter 2 times, but no one person can have both their entries in the final vote Smiley (If two are chosen, the one with the most judges votes will go through)


P.S.....This theme was suggested way back in May by our good friend Double_Farvel....so here it is, and thanks for that idea Wink

An old shot from me, but I put the logo on, and was pretty pleased with the result.

Decided at the last minute to give it a go as there are so few entries....
I wanted to enter two, but for some reason the font wouldn't work any more Cry
Anyway, it's of one of my favourite shots. Very simple.
