Anarcho-pilot wrote in Fri Mar 27, 2020 1:18 am:By the way, your suggestion to mention the location / craft after the title sounds really interesting. But, unfortunately, if I add this requirement, it will be very difficult to control that everyone obey it. Every month there are some users who disregard requirement to submit images in .jpg format or even don't know how to submit their screenshots to make them be displayed properly on the forum. Espesially this regards new users, who haven't spent enough time on the forum to be familiar with it. So, I think, many participants will just ignore this new requirement.


It shouldn't be a requirement just a suggestion that it's useful : ). The title gets used as the filename during wiki uploads. It's simple to cut/paste. To add images in future to wiki galleries and articles people have to rely on the file search. I uploaded the last 7 months recently as the 2020.1 release is upcoming, and it reminded me that currently almost none of the SOTM entries have the craft or location (link). The location doesn't need to be specific if people don't remember - even the country is useful (large areas sometimes have same quality of scenery/regional definitions, and the wiki has a category system that someone could add screenshots to later).

The wiki article on screenshots (link) could probably be added to the copy paste. It has a bunch of useful hints to turning on settings and using FG's simulation now, as well as taking screenshots.

Thanks for helping run the sotm :)

Kind regards

You are welcome! I'm glad to be somehow involved in the work on FlightGear project. Maybe I'll add your recomendation about mentioning aircraft and location in the title to the next month's set of rules.
