What happened to 800*600?

don't Like Scrolling Across to see the whole image and its unfair to people who lost detail when they resize to 800x600

Good Shots tho

Well time is up folks, and we have a winner for the April contest.
All entries this month were fantastic and another very close competition.

This months winner is Pedro

His shot got your votes so his photo will be added to the winners batch for the 2006 contest.

@cpt ovo2, I understand what you are saying, there guideline rules which i ask people to stick near to. However as this is an actual photo contest, the limitation of 800*600 can cuse problem in getting a good shot in the frame without it looking like a sausage.I am willing to go around the rules for such photo's  :lol:

Look out for next months contest, don't miss it Mo  :lol:

Have a great easter guys  :D

Tom

I See your point on some shots, but most will resize to 800 max width with ease, i just resized all the "oversized" images in PSP 2 mins ago, they look fine, lost quality on the first one as it was too big file size and wasnt going to upload to my space just for this post

But as you can see all images are able to be resized to 800 max width

Doesnt mean there 600 height but as long as there 800 wide then it should be okay as it fits on the screen

Only took 2 mins in PSP

Not a personal dig at anyone just rules are rules, don't obey them no point in stating them, :D lol
