the_crew_wild_run_photo_mode__29__by_michaelb450-dal8ha2.png

Driving along the coastline somewhere between Los Angeles and San Diego the driver of this Red 2015 Mazda MX-5, which he has modified extensively, saw the sun setting over the ocean; so he decided to pull over to the side of the road and take this amazing image of his car with Los Angeles and a boat in the distance. However the driver of the MX-5 had to block traffic to take this image and he got a ticket from a cop in the process, but it was worth it for this picture. The image is not framed in his house with the ticket he received in the bottom right corner of the frame.

Somebody with mad photoshopping skills should make a meme out of my image and the final paragraph. He he.

Anyway, the image is 4096 X 2160 and it's 6.10 MBs in size (without converting the image to a .JPG). The game is obviously none other than The Crew: Wild Run.

How long is "or so"?

Eudemon · October 22, 2016

Sorry folks, neighbour and hedge-cutters don't play well with delicate broadband cables and so I was without internet for most of the week. Will take it as a (typical) extended entry period and get the poll up around the normal time.

Andreas¹ · October 22, 2016

Yay so I can enter as I finally got a decent picture. Though in retrospect I probably should have upped the brightness a bit. :hmmm:

POLL OPEN!

Don't forget if you entered and can vote* then you MUST vote, for your entry to be valid!

Excellent turnout in this one, a lot of top entries over a fair variety of games. :nuts:

*new members who entered but are unable to vote are exempt from this rule

Ozzmcom · October 24, 2016

shame most fh3 shots had the watermark, some would've had my vote.

MichaelB450 · October 24, 2016

It seems like every time I post my entry that nobody votes for mine. Is it because it's The Crew? If so then sorry, I can't get any other racing games because of B.S. reasons. That and I don't have Windows 10 so I can't play Forza Horizon 3.

Yet you're not the only one, among the other ones without votes are FH3 shots AND the author of the current banner. Quick conclusion imo.

Eudemon · October 24, 2016

It's got nothing to do with the game guys (except for maybe TDU2 but that's more a joke than anything serious). There is only a max of 3 votes to dish out and unless the person likes your image enough to give it one of them then chances are others will take the spoils instead. I don't pick favourites or anything and I have hidden the voters in this one to stop people being influenced maybe too.

Realise it's nothing personal it's just the opinion of that person on who they feel deserves their vote(s).

Andreas¹ · October 24, 2016

I voted for Skylark even though I'm still in doubt whether it actually fits the theme. Not much sun in that picture. :p

*looks at poll*

I'm in the lead? :panic:

Ryzza5 · October 24, 2016

I see quite a few blue skies for a sunset round :hmmm:

@Ozz I presume Diablo would crop out the logo of the winning pic

MichaelB450 · October 24, 2016

Also I accidentally voted for EJS5000's image, when I mean't to vote for Andreas¹'s image. I got confused by the images and EJS5000's image was in link form.

Sorry for the mistake.

Andreas¹ · October 25, 2016

I forgive you :glomp:

No problem, we will make the correction when the poll closes to avoid any problems that may occur.

Eudemon · October 30, 2016

Andreas has a nice little lead at the moment as we near the end of the voting for this one.

The Compensator · October 31, 2016

Vote for me

the compensator for vice president

Eudemon · October 31, 2016

Poll has been updated to take into account wrongly attributed votes.

Congratulations Andreas on being the sole winner of tbc #78!! You distanced yourself from those behind to take it by almost double that of second place.

Impressive. :cool:
