Went for 1, I like the simplicity, 3 is a bit too dark for me.

I would have entered a shot but I completely forgot about it.. :hrmm: I always have a few spare edits on my hard drive that never get uploaded anywhere.

What border?  I took the shot and am actually embarrassed because of the jaggies from not being taken in full screen mode.  That is a raw, unedited shot, save cropping.

What constitutes an edit, Arron? A border? I think not.

An edit constitutes an alteration of the image to a certain degree where there is a noticeable difference in face value, not to a minor degree that barely adds any enhancing features to the topic.

Although I don't think a simple black line would constitute an actual edit. The same thing happened several months ago, where the winning edited shot had a black border, and that was the extent of the editing. http://www.flightsim...howtopic=165768

I think there should be a new rule about this... You need to do more than just add a black border to be accepted.

Lol - thanks for the clarification but that is nothing but a cropping mishap of some sort.  I never even noticed it.

You are absolutely right that someone needs to step in and moderate this because we are going on 3 months straight that something unnecessarily absurd has occurred in this process.

My point of view:
whether the scope of editing screenshots, Yardstick is:
the screen to see if handled? There (regardless of the level of skills, understanding and style), is the editor screenshot! None (here, Official Screenshot some slight is sharp),is the Official Screenshot! If only added a border,and not the same,just a formality.
There is still an important point:
a letter of application to see the project team?! have to meet the requirements announced, not in conformity with the cancellation.
