Peter,
I like number 1 - good clarity and of course, a little background scenery.

The first one looks great! Has the best FSAA, good background, great image quality. Looks great all around. Could almost be passed as a photograph. Do you have a larger screen shot of that? :)

[Psaul]

As a matter of fact, I don't have a bigger version. I just take the photo, resize it, and save it.

LAST EDITED ON Jan-02-02 AT 07:01PM (EDT)[p]Yes I agree Number 1 is the best.......how do you resize (probably a stupid question) And if you resize is the picture sharper?

Great pics good luck what ever pic you choose!!!

Well, I use Paint Shop Pro 7, so I just go to Image > Resize, and type in 400 x 300. I then do a sharpen command by going to Effects > Sharpen > Sharpen. This makes the photo a lot more clearer. While there is no sharpen command in Paint, I know there must be a Resize function.

P.S. The shots were taken in Full Screen Mode at 1024x768 resolution.

I don't think any screenshot contests let you modify your pics. Sharpen is one of them.

[Psaul]

Aww... man..... it is so fuzzy without the sharpen!!! Oh well, I have an un-Sharpened copy... here it is...

>Or you could resize to 640x480.

Yeah, but it has to be 400x300 for the screen shot contest!

400 X 300 ?? What contest are you talking about, any one I have ever seen wanted 640 X 480. The original looks far better then the 'sharpened' version. Does Paint shop have contrast controls? If so try a click of that, and if Paint Shop supports fading effects, fade by 20% each of your corrections.
By the looks of it some color correction could be used, as well as a 'levels' adjustment. If it does not support those, then pic up a copy of PhotoShop 5 or 6. There is nothing you cannot do with it. And you will really enjoy all the features. Hope that helps.

It's UK2000 London Airports in FS2K2. The 737 is at Gatwick, and the Air 2000 is one of the static aircraft.
