SC4 Picture Competition

[threestooges]

warszawa. And hey, I just noticed a train in warszwa picture.

Is that what that is? I've been trying to figure that out. Hopefully warszawa can verify that for us a some point.

Carmine's pic is a nice shot of a downtown area and I like that there is plenty of parking. That's something that tends to go overlooked (both in pics and in real life sometimes). I don't exactly feel that there is a particular focus to the pic, but if it was zoomed out a bit more, it looks like it would make for a good overview shot.

My vote this round is for warszawa.
6-0

[Q-Tips]

CarmineHiltons's pictures are good. And i do like the Polish block. But i find Warszawa's picture even better and so goes my vote.

Warszawa - 7
CarmineHilton - 0

[thundercrack83]

My vote will go to Alex (warszawa), too. Carmine's picture is good--like the use of custom content--but Alex's picture seems to be a force to be reckoned with!

8-0, warszawa.

[penguin007]

Well to be honest I find warszawa's picture a bit bland with not much in it. I like Carmine's picture which has a bit of east europe in it so I will go for Carmine.

Warszawa - 8
CarmineHilton - 1

Congratulations to Alex (Warszawa) on your entry to the Hall of Fame with that picture.

I'd like to enter this round with this picture which has an exlusive preview of TeaCat's Canal Narrow Boats:

"Houseboats on Herrengracht":



We need a challenger please.......

Congratulations Alex (Warszawa) 


My vote goes to paroch

1-0 in paroch's favour

[thundercrack83]

I'm a sucker for the canals and the Dutch buildings, so I have to go with Paul (paroch). Kitsune, your construction shot is a good one, too, though.

2-0, paroch.

[Diggis]

Nice pic Kitsune, good use of construction props, but the site is a little bare, and I'm a sucker for holland.

3-0 Paroch

[nerdly_dood]

Paroch's is taking FOREVER to load and after 5 minutes on a decent connection it isn't done yet, but Kitsunes isn't bad, so he gets my vote.

Paroch - 3
Kitsune - 1

[Kitsune]

^ I believe that there is my first ever vote gained against Paroch!

[paroch]

Kitsune,

LOL, I'm sure it's not been that bad 

The pic has been re-sized and re-linked.  Was 596kb, now 132kb, hopefully better download time if a (very) slight loss of sharpness.  Thanks to Arne for re-sizing 

Let play re-commence - good luck to us both.

Paul:
I used IrfanView, that is a free program.
It's save in jpegs with a quality setttings to 70 % and the file size went from 596 kb to 132 kb. A reduction to 22,1 %.

Thanks, you are welcome.

I second penguin's comment, and would like to add that the tall trees really stick out, espessially when 'planted' in such innatural stripes.

Warszawa 8 - 2 CarmineHilton
