Submit your screenshot for the SOTM of may 2023

[lomar]

Hello everyone!
Now's your chance to submit your candidate for May'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.
12. (NEW RULE) Screenshots containing ANY experimental features still not present in the stable version of FG should state in its caption which features are being used.

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 May 25th, in a separate topic.

Sunset at FL380 (HDR, new and experimental feature)


Forgive me if this breaks any rule because I didn't see any final decision in the HDR in SOTM thread.

Forgive me if this breaks any rule because I didn't see any final decision in the HDR in SOTM thread.

There's a new rule that the title of the image must state that you are using HDR (or any experimental feature). I presented this proposal on the HDR thread and people appeared to be happy about it

Got it, just fixed it.

Hopefully this works.



Please be gentle, it's my first time.

Hopefully this works.

it does not... not even when i try the URL directly... do you have the image set to allow public viewing from all users and guests?

Apparently not.

It may have been a regional thing.
