Screencap Contest

Contest

The contest, started by Axem and now judged by MjnMixael, is a part of the monthly HLP Newsletter. The whole idea is to capture the best of the best of what the FSO engine can do! Each month features a theme and entries must be based on that theme.

Scoring

The points don't matter, so don't worry about them! However, these types of things tend to help your screencap get closer to winning.

• Uniqueness of composition (Is it like every other screen out there, or is it something new?)
• Communicates (Does your image tell a story? Does it capture the mind of the viewer?)
• Wow-factor (How much does this image scream to be a desktop wallpaper?)
• Framing and Composition (10 Rules of Photo Composition)
• ????? (?????)
• Profit! ($$$$$)

Unbreakable Rules

These rules must be true of a screencap in order to be eligible to win.

• No HUDs
• No Photoshop or any post procesing
• Must fit the month's theme
• Only 3 entries per person, per month
