What do you think?

You may have seen my latest screenshots in the payware section. It was the first time I cropped my shots and I think it had great effects. The cropped version took out all the empty area on the top and bottom of the screenshot and I think it allows you to focus more on the aircraft. Please post your opinion on cropping.



Here is the original straight out of the sim with nothing done but resizing.





Here is the cropped version from my post in payware.

I dunno...

Cropping can indeed be very useful but I don't think you did the right thing by cropping this specific pic.

I think the original shows much more depth and scale than the cropped pic

i much prefer the uncropped version, it gives a feeling as if your lying on the ground taking the pic, however this is lost in the cropped version 8-)

I think you should crop the top down since its just gray and then leave the bottom to get the effect everyones talking about.

I still like the first one. The second one lost a bit of depth. In the 3rd one, the plane gets pushed into the corner and looks a bit trapped. I'd just crop off half of the ground in the 1st one and leave the sky as it is.
