Thanks for the artwork Clipper!






Welcome to the monthly contest admissions thread for Best Screenshots of November/December 2010!!

The bar has always been set high here at Simviation, and our judge's standards are VERY high as well, and it will take more than your average shot to make it as one of thier top three picks. The quality of shots here gets better and better each month, and I'm sure this month will be no different.

When nominating a shot, the aim is to choose the VERY BEST screenshots/screenart from each FS forum in the last month and display them in our permanent gallery.


Here:GALLERY


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Rules:


1.
You can submit 3 shots of your own , and an UNLIMITED* NUMBER OF PICS BY OTHER PEOPLE. 


*
Unlimited = 'within reason' i.e. 10 or so is okay...not 5,372... Wink  Cheesy

That way, people who are really keen to participate and contribute are free to do so and can 'cover for' those who for whatever reason don't get around to it.... Smiley




2. You don't have to nominate all pictures at once,
just keep adding them TO YOUR ORIGINAL POST
using the edit button.




3. Submit the pictures as links without image tags, or if you feel like it, thumbnails. Do not submit full images! New image size guidelines apply.




4.      
Write next to the image who made it, and if it is F, P or E (Freeware, Payware or Edited).


eg               IMAGE by Su-37_pwns_F-22_any_day   F
       IMAGE by me      P
       IMAGE by krigl   E 
       etc.... Smiley




5.The admissions/nominations thread will close officially at midnight on the
25th of each month
  and the gallery team will knock up three polls, one for each of the screenshot forums.




6.
Judges picks are due in by the last day of each month. If any of the Judges fail to get their picks in, then the Gallery Team (Mitch) will fill in for that Judge. If a judge misses 3 months in a row, they will have to be replaced. Hope you all understand.





7.
Shots posted in the final week of the month, after the admissions/nomination thread is closed  (after the 25th), are eligible for nominating for the following month's competition.





8.  This competition is for members, and if no one nominates anything the contest will disappear. Not everyone likes contests...but those of you who do need to get involved. Smiley


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


We're aiming for around 80 nominations - i.e. 16 people nominate five shots each... so don't hold back and NOM-IN-ATE!!




That’s it. Let’s hope we get to see the best of the best from all three FS screenshot forums!




Happy nominating!!




The Gallery Team




This month the Judges are...

Let's finish off 2010 with a final round of nominations. This will run for both November and December, so any shots posted in this time are fine to nominate. I know the end of December will be pretty busy for most people, so deadline for submission is the 20th of December and hopefully I'll have the polls running before Christmas. Smiley

If anyone would like to be a judge, please let me know in this thread. 6 positions available, if not I'll fill in. Same rules still apply, 3 favourite picks PM'd to me before the 20th of Dec. Cool

Let's see some killer screenshots.

Cheers Smiley

I can help with judging Payware (and also editware if needed, though I prefer to vote in that section Tongue).

Will start nominating later, some nice shots so far this month!

The forum they were posted under will dictate which category to nominate them in.

It may be best to change the names of the categories in here for what you're nominating.

Nominate for Screen shot Showcase or Payware Showcase

It doesn't make much sense to nominate a shot for a Freeware category, when it's packed full of payware.  Wink

Please be aware that nothing I say is official by any means.  Grin

I was just stating the obvious. It's up to the fellas running this show on how it gets done.  Wink

Maybe the categories can be simply....

edited screenshots
un-edited screenshots
payware showcase

But i believe that overall there is confusion as to what goes where in the first place.

In regards to nomination categories, common-sense should be applied. If a shot is predominantly payware its nominated under payware and the same goes for freeware. Nothing has changed. Edits speak for themselves. Hope it clears it up. Smiley

Lets see some more nominations before December 20th. Looking good so far. Smiley

Still looking for one more judge for the payware category.

Well, I just stepped down from freeware, but if you get too desperate for one by the end of the month, I can do it.  Wink
