Submit your screenshot for the SOTM of October 2022

Postby Anarcho-pilot » Wed Sep 28, 2022 8:09 pm

Hello everyone!

Now's your chance to submit your candidate for October's FlightGear SOTM contest!

Participation Rules
1. 20 entries (because a poll can only have 20 options).
2. Only one entry per person to give everyone a fair chance of submitting a screenshot.
3. You may enter one extra for somebody else. This person of course can submit their own candidate.
4. If you submit a screenshot of another person, please make sure he/she grants you the right to publish it under the correct license.
5. Please convert your picture from PNG into JPEG (plenty of converters online).
6. Must be taken with FlightGear.
7. Every picture should have a caption. It would be useful to add the name of the aircraft and the location, where the screenshot was taken, to the caption. (For example: "Greeting the dawn - C172P, Keflavik".) Otherwise, please, mention it at least in your entry.
8. Screenshots must not be post-processed except from cropping and/or resizing (but you may use the in-sim filters). You may also add titles mentioning an author of the screenshot and/or aircraft/location displayed on it.
9. You may change your entry as often as you want, until the voting starts.
10. You agree to license your screenshot under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license for publication by the FlightGear project.
11. You agree that the screenshot may be used to promote the FlightGear project, including publication on the flightsim.com forum with proper attribution according to the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license.

Here is a Wiki article with some advice on making nice screenshots: http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:Make_nice_screenshots .

Voting will start when 20 entries are reached or at the latest on October 21st, in a separate topic.

Best wishes - Anarcho-pilot.

Flying is so magical, just hearing the hum of the engines as I plow through the blue yonder...

Hello, I love flying. An image should be in JPEG format. Yours is in PNG. Please, consider converting it - and update your post.

Here is a direct link to your image, which you have posted: https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/8979/175qsj.png . A direct link ends with file extension. As you can see, in your case it's ".png".

Seems to be fixed now :)
There are free alternatives to (almost) every program you encounter. You just have to find them.

Thank you! It is possible, that I didn't notice I love flying had edited his post, due to the web page in my browser hadn't been updated. But now everything is okay.

Hello, dear participants. There was a delay: according to the schedule, I had to start the voting yesterday but didn't manage to do it. Was going to do it now, but have found out than I love flying's image is not displaying anymore. Due to the small number of participants, I find it fairly to give I love flying a chance to fix his link. Let's wait for him for two more days - until the 24th of October.

I love flying, your image is not displaying anymore. Seems to be a problem with the link, you have provided. I am delaying the voting for you - if you want to participate, please, consider fixing your link. On the 24th of October the voting will be started in any case.

Until the solving of this problem the submission isn't close - other participants are welcomed to submit their works!
