Nice first sets, take a trip to StudioV for more help. http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2 ... 1166781108

The best thing for resizing images is irfanview do a google search for it.

Not bad! Especially for a beginner!

I would however like to add some comments and or tips

1st shot: The zoom on the plane is nice and is ok in this shot. However it misses a certain background. In this case it's just light blue..

2nd shot: Try to get the complete aircraft in the picture.. In this shot the zoom doesn't really do anything...

3rd shot: What is the purpose of the shot? Is it there to show the VC? Or do you wan't to take a look outside? The shot doesn't really do either I feel? But that's just my perception

4th shot: No comment! Really nice! I love that Meteor and especially in that colour ( though I prefer the Dutch

Regarding the first two shots. The first one, I was trying to show the detail in the plane, but the photo suffered from me having to crop a lot out of it. The second one is an even more extremely cropped pic. As soon as I learn how to bring down the image sizes, they will be better.
I agree with the your comments on the third shot, but I'm not really sure what your 'no comment' means regarding the last one. Good or bad  ? ::)

edit. Just noticed you said 'really nice'. :)    ( personally, I think it's a bit bland, myself )
