ญญญญ• Photo must be taken in Gran Turismo 4.

• Picture MUST be in the format of 800x600 or 600x800 to be acceptable in the competition and to coincide with UltimateCarPage.com's rule regarding inline images.
• Pictures should be no more than 30 days old. This can not be tested so please use the honor system.
• Competition will last one week, beginning on Wednesdays with a vote starting on Tuesday and lasting exactly one day.
• Once a photo is submitted, it is final. No if's and's or but's. (suggestions allowed)
• No late entries are permitted. Photo should be submitted before voting thread is made by yours truly.
• Good luck, may the best member win. :)

Since it's an even week, we'll need a theme. What theme do you have for us this week Twinspark?

No formulas this time, I believe it would reduce the posted images as not everyone (including me) has got a formula in the game.

But let's have a theme that's in a way close to F1, this weeks theme shall be the glamour of Monaco. There are lots of great places to take pictures in the "Cote 'd Azur" circuit. Of course nothing stops you from taking pics of F1 cars in there...

PS. Sorry my reply lasted this long, I wasn't able to get to a computer with internet last night, I'll also be offline tonight and tomorrow morning.

No problem. I'm extending the comp till Friday Afternoon (Eastern U.S. time, about 10:00 p.m. or 22:00 in England.) Cheers, let's see some pics.

Uhhhh.......does that mean I can use F1 pictures or not in Cote 'd Azur? That means you can use any car in your picture. The "no formulas" part only meant that formulas aren't the theme, so you're not required to use them. The only requirement is that the pic must be taken in Cote 'd Azur.

I quess we can't really require there to be ocean, specific buildings etc. in the pic, it wouldn't be fair to tighten the requirements at this point. But maybe it could be so, that the pic must be recognizable to have been taken in Cote 'd Azur (might be quite difficult to prove it if there's only a car and some asphalt in the pic).

That's exactly what I did, lol. All you can see in the background is a blurred rail and a blurred wall. I should post it whenever I'm clear of what it should be about.

I suppose if we can at least somewhat identify the rail and the wall, the pic is fully acceptable. But post the pic first and then we'll see what the others think.

Wow, I don't see a better racing game than GT4. If you don't like GT4, then kick yourself into the crap-box's Forza, which n00bs always like.........

My first time entrance:

ps. Forza is more fun & harder than GT4 (if you count out Driving Mission 13)

Here's my offering. I figured I had some time spare and now that I can use my camera to store pics, I can get em on the PC now.

Sorry there's not much of Monaco in there, you can just about make out the tower blacks in the background. I did have a couple of pics that were obviously Monaco, but I liked this one better.

twinspark

My first time entrance: First of all, the pic must be of resolution 800x600 or 600x800. Secondly the theme for this week is Monaco (Cote 'd Azur).

Take the pic on Cote d' Azul and make sure your pic complies w/ the 800x600/600x800 rule.

And make sure you turn up your save file quality on your USB port. It'll increase the quality of the image.

About the theme by the way, I was wondering whether that red viper is shot on Cote 'd Azur.

I wondered that at first. It's on that short straight from the first right hand hairpin to the switch back.

I have, indeed, at my friend's house, the sound of the cars was really fake though, and the speedometer looked way worse than GT4's, it bored me easily. By the way, EA should tell all of us the release date of BF2 because it's already June.
