hey Mike, is it alright submitting 'em in widescreen format; 1440x900 in particular.
Do you have to fit them to 4:3 dimensions or can you just put them on the site as is?

Likely because a few of them were very similar... and judging by the comments, people want unique shots every day :)

I'm going to modify the SOTD script so that if I don't verify one, it'll send you an email with my reason etc.

also could have been because of a bad upload, but I manually fix those if possible, so it was more likely the first reason.

Keep on uploading though!

Mike, I think you really should consider making more mods and admins, or getting others to help you run this site. Must be hard being a one-man show!

I've considered adding a couple moderators for the SOTD/showroom stuff... but need to make the admin area more robust first. there's a bit of manual labour when adding them sometimes, so I need to automate that :)

Depends on how you made them?
1. way is Print Screen,then get them inside of Windows Paint/Edit/Paste.

2. way is Alt-P i never use that anymore,Makes Windows Buggy :/

3. Way is, FRAPS FuLL Ver.293 Program = Win ;)

Hi yes that Method makes TGA Files, that are Pics you need a Grafics/Image Editor that Can open them Files, to Export them out as Jpeg, be best. thats such a Hassel. I dont do any more...

Can you get Fraps? That works best for making Pics in Game and Video Replays. Maybe PM me your email Address, maybe i can help you out,ok azmaatak, Man im glad i havent had what your name says, Today ;)

FYI, the best program for converting TGA to jpg is Irfanview... located here:
http://www.irfanview.com/

It's free, and a small download.

And thanks for the submissions, got plenty of them, but keep em coming!

Once school ends (May 22) I'll be able to play NFS more, which means more shots for SOTD. :)
