Sim ID?

Since I'm still relatively new to the flight sim world, my ability to distinguish between FSX and FS9 visual products (screenshots etc) is marginal.

I've been suggesting that for years now!...

I make every effort to identify which Flight Sim I am using for my screen shots for that very reason!.

When I see a particular screen shot which I find outstanding, I have long given up asking which Sim it was produced with!... :(...!

It would be nice to see an amazing screen-shot that looks like FSX, and be accompanied by the message that it was actually produced with FS 2002!... :)...!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...(and FSX)... ;)...!

Which sort of leads to another question, as a newish member, I've been loathe to ask.

not only, "Which sim is that for???" but also, "where did you find that craft!?"

if someone takes a GREAT shot that is going to be in a contest, could there be a rule that you must include with the pic, a link to where the aircraft can be found AND what sim it is that you are using to take the pic.  ..... maybe someone else would like to try to take a screenie that is close to yours, or even try to outdo yours with your own plane.

Maybe everybody could just put it in their sig. Don't know about the ones who fly both though.
