I was showing my friend Ramos here a few tips on making screenies and this is what we came up with as an end result...

This is what we started with.  It's all in the cropping and composition folks...

A great shot. Very well done. What I am wondering about is that nobody started b*tching that it should be in the Edited Screenshot section. So here it goes... "Shouldn't this be in the Edited Screenshot section?"

Crash ;)

I don't think cropping constitutes editing, does it? That's all we need Kevin...a hundred or so you's posting amazing shots in the monthly contests! ;D You are hereby forbidden to show anyone anything anymore!  ;)

There's no editing involved here, except for adding the border.  I took a tip from Dave on that one.  It looks too plain without one on any shot, and I like to show a little pride in my work.  :)  All that you see here is adjusting the lighting, angle of view, cropping and framing.

Ok, sorry. Don't know anything about posting screenshots, but adding a border is editing. That is the only part I was referring to. Using angles, scenery to change light or whatever is all fine and I use them too (sometimes).

Crash ;)

I suppose technically you are correct; I just like my pics to look nice and as long as it doesn't get too elaborate, I wouldn't think it's an issue...
