THE OCTOBER SCREENSHOT CONTEST

This Month's Theme Is Titled...

"LOW & SLOW"

As the cold winds start to blow and the leaves start to change, the landscape around us offers some beautiful sights to see. And what better way to see these sights than in Prop Plane or Helicopter flying "Low & Slow". We want to see a shot of a single engine prop plane skimming the tree line under an October Sky, a Beaver flying the bush on some remote destination or a Helicopter on a "Scenic Fall Tour". It is a "colorful" time of year so let's see some creativity in regards to your set up. October skies will offer great sunsets along with the changing of the leaves which will provide you with a great opportunity for that perfect shot! Any type of shot that includes your prop plane or whirlybird flying low & slow while taking in the sights is what we are looking for so...
GET OUT THERE AND BE CREATIVE!

Please see example below...

And What Better A Prize Than To Offer The
A2A Simulations Piper Cub with the
Piper Cub Accu-Sim Expansion Pack
Sponsored By A2A Simulations!!

Once again we would like to thank Scott Gentile &
the Team at A2A Simulations for donating this month's prize!

PLEASE SEE NEXT POST
FOR THIS MONTH'S RULES!

THE RULES

Below are the rules... Any questions or comments should be directed to a judge and will be answered at the earliest available opportunity. Any contestant judged to have violated these rules will have his entry removed and be disqualified. Please start a thread for your entries for each member...
Most of all, HAVE FUN!

Contest Starts October 5, 2009
and Ends October 28, 2009.

**

Linking images to other sites is NOT allowed and STRICTLY ENFORCED!**
YOU CAN ONLY USE A FREEWARE SCREENSHOT CAPTURE PROGRAM!
Active Camera, Walk & Follow are NOT allowed!!

1. This contest will run from October 5, 2009 until October 28, 2009. Entries submitted after Midnight on October 28, 2009 EST will not be accepted. Judging will occur after October 28, 2009 EST and the 10 Finalists will be entered into the POLL that will be posted soon after! Now the Members will cast their vote in the Poll to determine this month's winner!

2. The Simviation Monthly Screen Shot Contest is OPEN TO ANYBODY who wants to test their skills! Whether you are a newbie or an avid Simviation poster, we want to see what you got! Please be honest and do not start creating new accounts that result in duplicate or multiple screenshot entries under different usernames. IP addresses will be tracked! Wink

Wink

3. All images Must BE NO WIDER THAN 1024 AND NOT MORE THAN 150KB IN WIEGHT! No cropping, editing or adjusting your shot!! Any images over 150 kb in weight, and wider than 1024 will not be VALID! This rule is now being enforced since This is a Screenshot Contest and we "want to see the RAW shot!" All entries must be uploaded to SimV.

4. ONLY ONE ENTRY PER MEMBER!
Each contestant must start their own thread in the Screenshot Contest forum with their shot! Your entry must be included in this thread.

5. Screenshots from FS98, FS2000, FS2002, FS2004, FSX & CFS series only please!!

6. Once an entry is submitted, it may not be changed or replaced. This is to keep the confusion to a minimum, and to maintain forum integrity. Entries may be withdrawn from the contest, but no additional entries from that member will be accepted.

7. Entries may be of freeware aircraft and scenery only! This keeps the playing field even! Wink

Wink

8. Entries may not be edited in any way. Any entry discovered to have been edited will be disqualified and the image removed from the contest.

9. All images must be produced specifically with the intent of entering them in this contest. No screenshots previously posted images or pre-contest images will be accepted.

10. After the contest has ended and the judges have decided on the "Finalists", a "POLL" type thread will be started entitled, "Screenshot Finalists, Vote Now!" It will explain that the Poll will be closed within 48 hours. You must note the Post Time of this thread to know when it will close! This will allow the members to now vote for their favorite shot from the ones the judges have picked!

11. After 48 hours from the time the Finalist Announcement is made, the POLL will be closed and the Winner announced!

A REQUEST
We would like to ask the Author of each screenshot, to please supply us with the name & designer of the Aircraft in your post. So many people always ask "what aircraft is that", and We think it would be very informative for many of us if it were right there under the shot!
Thanks...

Remember, You Signed...
The Oath!

Good Luck to All and Thanks for playing!
The Simviation Moderating Team!

What's the incentive for us FS niners? Unless I'm mistaken, that J3 is strictly FSX.

THIS IS NOT A PANAM CLIPPER
