I would just like to express a great THANK YOU, to Harold.
I received a PM today stating that he is passing along his prize to me, as he stated that he is not in this competition for the prizes.

This is an extraordinary act of kindness in my opinion, and caught me quite off guard when I received the message this afternoon.

Again, Harold....Thank You!

No ... enjoy YOUR 727!

Indeed I have decided to give the prize I earned in the Monthly Screenshot Contest, the Captain Sim 727, to Sean as he's the runner up

Like Sean said, I don't participate in the Monthly Screenshot Contest for the prize; I just like to create beautiful screenshots and although I think screenshoting is not a competition, I do I like to see if I can win being the competitive guy that I am ...

I'm glad that you accept it

Dave will contact you shortly for the logistics.

Oh ... and you'd better take some amazing screenshots of her ...

And if this made you all wonder what I did with June's prize ...

I gave the RealAir Spit that I won in June to Dave as an appreciation for his continuing efforts in running Screenshot Contest.

Here's to Dave and the team for running this amazing contest and website! Cheers! Smiley

To add on to the thanks that I posted previously, another big thanks goes out to Dave and the other forum staff for even making this contest possible.

I don't know of any other forum on this scale that has such a large focus on screenshots, and I think that having both the opportunity to compete, as well as the general opportunity to showcase our non-competitive work and receive tips from the best in the business, is excellent. Wink

Keep your eyes open in the Payware Screens section once this 727 rolls into my hanger.

To participate you have to at least be a member for one month and then go to 'upload images' on top of this page, upload your screenshot (which must be within 1024 px wide and not larger than 150kb); post this into a new topic of the screenshot-of-the-month thread and you're in... Cool

And it's always good to read the guidelines that are posted by the Admins to make sure your entry qualifies... Wink

Happy Siming

btw: you should try uploading to SimV with your avatar! Wink

...and watch out for the image size.
