Yes, there were so many quality entries this week. I think your pic would have made it to the top 20 in most other comps ejr.👍

 

[vr6gti72]

Im stoaked with my one vote I can live with that...👍

 

[primerdimer]

damn...its all about that mr2 shot... whoever did that, good job. damn maybe i need a image editor to make it in the top 20. There should be a competition with ZERO photo editing. photo editing gives an unfair advantage to those with it...just my 2 cents. anyone agree?

 

[Perfect Balance]

Wow, tie for 1st. This is my first time ever even being in the first position, even if it is tied.

Just so you know, Brock5000 provides links to free photo editing software in the first post of the competition.

 

[Brock5000]

indeed.

• Photoshop or other graphics programs may only be used to crop, resize, adjust brightness, contrast or gamma, rotate, add a border or small signature, or to remove the "Gran Turismo/©SCEI" watermark, if you so wish.
• If you don't have Photoshop or other professional image management software, try a shareware one such as IrfanView or GIMP.

As stated, the only real changes you can do to your photos for this comp are to adjust the brightness and contrast levels, and to do so does not really require any knowledge of how to use a graphics program - basically you adjust the sliders until the pic "looks good" I will have do up a basic tutorial soon as there's been a few enquiries about this lately.

I don't know about you, but I voted for 725's MR2 shot largely because he actually posted a fresh angle.

I totaly disagree here with you, I don't think we should be forced to go easy, because you people can't keep up, or somthing lke that, people that don't know how to edit good, should try to learn and get better, not complain because they arn't good anough. We would get nowhere in technology if all the companies went easy so other companies could keep up. Microsoft made the 360, now sony has to try to come up with something better. Also, its not that hard to get an editing program, gimp and picasa will get you stuff just as good as everyone else, and its free.

Sorry to sort of bash you like that, but i was just talking about that with a friend like 2 days ago, when something similar was posted in one of the polls.

 

[EVO Lancer]

Duck's wonderfully clean and very realistic looking Motul 350Z wins my vote, with Brock5000's Supra running in a close second.

 

[bjc-3000]

Hmmm... I can´t decide between JMX and Franz. I think Franz has the most elaborated and tricky composition IMHO. JMX has the best "feel" to the car for my personal taste. Hmmm...hmmm...hmmm...I guess Franz has to get my vote.

Prost!

 

[sejtur]

OK, so I voted for sejtur's Takata NSX.

Hey thanks dude!

Voted for another NSX, the Mobil 1. jmx's to be precise.

 

[My_Sterious]

I'm in the poll! That's great. Now if I only got a vote or two...
I voted for ALPHA's pic. It's a great pic and it's very hard to get all the GT300 cars to the grid at the same time.

 

[725]

Yeah I made it! and I'm in the lead this is a first Thanks for the votes guys

I voted for franz's picture after a lot of debating

try the rally pmc when it resumes.

yay. i got a vote

 

[hellaSmoked]

I really think that this week has the most quality entries of any regular PMC.

 

[vr6gti72]

NICE...picked up a couple more votes..thanks whoever you are

 

[JFM92_GTRacer]

They're all very good. Dunno what to pick. Great work guys. 👍

I'll agree with you...you do have a point. I was just trying to point out that this was a photo contest in who can capture good photos, not who can edit the best photos. But i didnt quite read all the rules and didnt know that all you guys were doing was messing with the contrast n stuff. Moving on... i tried to download GIMP, but it was a kinda wierd. Im not that computer literate, and was wondering how to actually DL it? anyone?

Try picasa, I think its very good, and provides more than what you need for editing shots, just go to google.com and click more, it should be in there.

(in response to post) I think that the only thing you can really do in gt4 is pick the angle of the shot, everything else is polyphony digital to me. So if I see a good edited shot, then I think, theres a person who knows to to make good shots.



Good luck everyone.

Shame I cant be one of the Top 20 Seems that I have to learn some photoshop or I wont have any chance at all

I went with (empty_space)'s pic for 3 good reasons:

1- The lights, gorgeous

2- The background, its very nitid, impressive 👍

3- That Audi is my favourite DTM's car

Regards.

gtsilent - thanks 👍

fwiw - i was told picasa 2's fill/high lights/shadow set up was illegal for this pmc.
