restrictions will be avoid anything with a motor behind the front wheels."

Amazing photos.

Please don't tell me it's mine!!!

I wasn't totally sure to be honest - It's out of the folder I downloaded from my stick, but I did mess about with a few copies of it. I hope it's the original (it's certainly named that way!).

(pray)

Don't worry, yours is fine. It's the blue Golf VI R at Nurburgring that looks edited. Anyway let's wait until Slip confirm if I'm wrong or not

Did you enter this one here too? You know you only can enter a picture in one competition?
Just saying....

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Hmmm, it might've been brightened a bit post-game, I'm not 100% sure.

Andse1, could you upload the original file from your PS3, please?

Im a little disappointed i didnt make it to the poll although my pic wasnt great so i dont know what expected lol.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Welp, Andse1 did edit his image, and voted for himself. The DQ means commodoreben, FordMKIVJ5, McZachenF138, nanabu, Piotrov, SSXRid3R will need to post their new choices in the thread.

 

[Grayfox]

Shame that some people must break the rules.

Their should be some sort of punishment.

Like banned from entering for the next 2 competitions.

 

[kennylmao]

Is that it? No pictures of Golf taillights? I ain't gonna vote on this!

 

[jus1029]

Tons of Premiums and 1 standard Polo.

 

[honkydonky]

I am amazed my Polo made it, chuffed though

you had a great photo of that polo. and i'm one of the few that enters standards every chance i get. isn't it fun to be different.

it really sucks that an edited photo made the poll and i apologize to the people that didn't make it because of it. it wasn't an easy week to be judging and i too love the new dlc. i would have bought a scirocco in real life if they came to the usa but they aren't for a while, also thought about the golf r but the fact we aren't getting the dsg trans in the US for it is also a bummer. and i'm not somebody who just says that, i bought a 11' shadow blue gti 4 dr instead

if anybody wants feedback post you pic in here and i'd be happy to give some constructive feedback. (i don't feel like wading through the pages to find you picture)

Which photo would have made it if it wasn't for that one?

I can assure you that yours was a runner up, I had 5 i would have had to decide between, happily I didn't have to. no sense to decide now. lol. if I could have had more entries I would have. the reason for yours not quite making it in was you needed to zoom in on the car more, it really wasn't showcasing anything, it. these were post #'s if you want to dig through and decide for yourself.
12,41,51,101,123

it was fun being the judge but not going to lie, not something I would like to do every week. I have new found respect for the judges opinion.

 

[Grayfox]

Mine was 123.

When I was taking the picture I didn't want to risk getting a screw up happening as I somehow managed to get the castle sharp with the car being sharp while the rest was a blurred a bit.

hey still sorta new to this, sorry if this is a dumb question, but uh..how do u make it to the poll ? i was under the assumption if you played within the rules, all entrys would make it to the poll ? uh...there is only 11 options to vote for.....so i can assume...someone chooses their fav 11 or so and those are the ones that go up on the poll ?

sorry for being confused, i just didnt see my pic in the poll and wondered if i broke a rule somewhere along the line...

flame away guys, im a photocomp newb

edit: looks like i didnt mark my final entry in red text...im guessing thats the reason lol..pretty weak but rules are rules i guess

 

[Grayfox]

The judge picks 12of the best and it is not easy, the smallest thing can prevent you from being picked at times.

I was a first time winner two weeks ago (somewhat a noob as well, entered maybe 20 or so and made the poll a handful of times) so I got to choose what the competition was and a week later went through every post enlarged them and chose 12 best for each side (VW and Honda) that fit the criteria (not as fun as it sounds). once I choose them, I wrote the post# for each one and sent them to slipstreamz and he created the polls. no such thing as dumb questions, I'm sure there are others wondering the same thing, I was one that never asked. if you want post your pic in here I'd be glad to shed some light why it didn't make the poll this week (not something every judge does, i've never had the benefit of finding out why i didn't make a poll, or receive constructive feedback)
