Previously on Lost tbc - Ozz took the lead before we even started voting by winning the thread with his glorious Golf in New York scene. Not Golf like the "sport" but like the Volkswagen. Congratulations Ozzmcom!

 

Theme: Italian Cars/Bikes

Deadline: Sun 28th August, 2016 - Entries | Sun 4th September, 2016 - Votes

 

PRIZE

• The winning entry or entries will be posted up on our community forum banner and if large enough will also be put on our social channels too. (if multiple winners then images will be split between these as we see fit)
  

RULES

• Stick to the implied theme (don't look for loopholes) - any being awkward for the sake of it will make you ineligible for entry
  
• Images must not exceed 5MB, and dimensions must be at least 1280x720. (please do not crop your pics to the banner dimensions)
  
• No post-production or editing of entry images except to crop or resize please, raw from the game is what we want - use the game settings to set up your image correctly
  
• The post that contains your entry image must be labelled with 'ENTRY POST' (makes it clear what image you are going with & for us to find :p)
  
• If you change your mind on your entry image - DO NOT post updated images in later posts, edit and replace the previous image with the new one (up until thread is locked for Poll creation)
  
• Each entrant must also cast a vote - if you fail to vote, your entry will be disqualified from Poll results
  
• You cannot vote for yourself - instant disqualification if so
  
• Winner chooses the next theme, unless they won prior, in which case the runner up decides - if no pick within 24 hours then theme will be free-for-all
  
• Winner has 24 hours to create a new thread or can PM or reply in the current TBC thread to have a staff member do so instead
  
• Winner must not try to sneak new rules in the new thread or alter existing rules - be clear on your theme to avoid this
  
• Competition is limited to games on all platforms of any age that are classified as driving/racing games. (i.e. FPS games that have cars in them are not eligible) (Please mention what game your screenshot is from if not obvious)
  
• Entering the competition with a TDU2 picture may result in suspension/ban of your account. :evil:
  
• Each contest is broken into an entries part and then a voting part, after which the winner(s) will be decided from the poll results
  

 

Good luck and remember you can use the fancy new turboduck gallery (compression free)!

Time for something a little more fun on the banner I reckon :umm:

 

 

Crop the top off and I reckon it'll look pretty good.

[Ozzmcom]

[CarMadMike]

Very moody and atmospheric of you Andai :p

 

Shame about the size of the watermarks for APEX isn't it :hmmm:

Yep, it's way too invasive... At least they should let you choose where to place it

 

So, you guys like Apex then, huh? :p

 

Of course! I waited way too much for it

[Andreas¹]

You can avoid the watermarks by hiding the UI in photo mode and then taking screenshot with something like FRAPS.

True, but it won't render the image, the result won't be as stunning as it is

[TIMELESS]

Guess I'll join in on the Forza static shots :p

Or just spray it black in paint in this case

I frame the camera offset so I can cut the watermark part of the picture completely.

Forza watermarks are by far the worst looking thing I've ever seen.

[Eudemon]

Framing your shot so that when the banner size is taken is a good idea, however I can see how it could result in a worse image in having to do so. Despite this, remember no cropping to the banner size with your entry either. :)

Extending this an extra week due to myself being busy and so have some of the other staff who usually deal with the 'tbc'. It will also give Ozz's great winning pic it's time above and allow for more entries. :cool:

[TIMELESS]

So 3 weeks for entries then? :lol: Congrats on the longest running theme Ozz :p

[Eudemon]

Oh crap, you mean it was already extended? :fp:

Haha yup. The first week was pretty quiet so I... well I thought the same as you and added another week on the deadline. At least Ozz'll get some banner time :duck:
