Happy Photomoding everyone!
 
Just think of all the possibilities. (Pardon my girlish sense)
Two weeks sounds like a long time to wait until the poll opens.
 
We can use any car in any track or photomode location in anyway for this competition?
 
Great! I will use a photo that some of you already know but is good enough for my
Final Entry

 
Come on people, keep entering your pictures to reject postponing this week's competition.
 
Here's my entry. I even have a clickable preview!

Thanks, My only problem with it is that I can't view it properly on my monitor.
 
Its the resolution. The resolution of my main computer is 1600x900 (16:9) and the picture is 1280x960 (4:3).

A picture at a 4x3 resolution on a 16x9 screen, that's the same setup on my computer too. There shouldn't be any problem in the first place. There has to be more than the normality of the photo resolution.
 
It's not the aspect, the bottom of the photo goes below the screen, and the bottom of the picture is my favorite part.
 
I don't really understand the theme :confused:

In these PMC competitions, what we all are creating is art. What makes it interesting, is that it is combined with a topic most of us have a love for, racing and gaming. It is quite a bummer that most of the shots taken are judged more about the cars used, than the actual art aspect. If the shot is composed correctly a VW Beetle can be far better than a Corvette Stingray, from an art perspective anyway (even though we all know the 'vette is a more beautiful machine). What I was looking for here, was more focus on the artistic composition than car & track selection. Check out the link below for some tips, on how to evaluate art, and what compositional aspects to try implement into your works.

So pretty much that means I could just take a hideuos car but do everything I can without editing to make it look great, sounds good. Hopefully I get time, I have to a static image thing for NCEA and Math homework right now (and I'm failing at both of those)
 
I just finished my static image for NCEA Level 1 English which took me 3 lessons on Photoshop. I just wish teachers would stop wasting our time with projects like static images though.
 
I know right, I just fail English. It's annoying how they don't let us do it on something we care about, it has to be from some boring book.

Apparently our year is the dumbest year, so I'm not too ashamed of my cabbageness
 
It's worse when you're in 1A for everything like I am, at least I don't have to do static images for Japanese.
