What do you think is the best screenshot ever?

Almost every screenshot in the exchange had been photoshopped one way or another. Some look like crap, others are a joy for the eye. What do you think is the most beautiful screenshot posted on the site?

My vote goes to Mamba's screenshot by Barone (http://www.coastercrazy.com/track_exchang ... ?tid=12124), but I also like the screens of Canadmos' Monolith, dcs' Breaking Point and Jakizle's SCWC [:)]

Hover by Muella.

I only like the odd screenshot to be honest. Theres only a few people on this site i think really have a knack for presenting their rides so nicely. A good screenshot means alot as well.

any Crysis screenshot I think.

Kaiser Fero by Gouldy! I dunno, I just think it looks pretty awesome.

I think any screenshot that makes you say "I want to ride that!" is a great screenshot. Coasterguy, that one covers it perfectly, as I downloaded it the minute I saw the page.

My favorite isn't allowed on the site

^i think i remember that from coaster candy..

I don't mean to brag but I really like this screenshot:

Quite easily any of Symbiotic's screenies, especially:

[TheArchitect]

^ can be pretty easily done.

I think when users use the 'follow' cam (press 'E' twice in sim) you get a very realistic human perspective. Before i discovered how to do it i used to think people where really profesional with thier screenies.

My favorite ever is Megablast by Buster... mainly because it shows the trains with lights.

Overall a really skilled piece of work.

Which reminds me! Architects more recent projects have very good screenshots.

Iron Man also buckles down and gets 'em done very well.

Not trying to toot my own horn or anything, but I like simple ones like this;


Its too bad the ride is nowhere near as great as the screenshot

I like this one, And I know its my ride, but IronMan actually crafted the screenie.

If i can lemme add my own it's unedited.

I'd barely remember screenshots from rides. But when i look at my own screenshots i'd think that Bloodrush has the best screenshot which took me some editing time

Do i see a positive corrolation between good screenshots and higher ratings?

im with gerst, symbiotic has some very attractive screens, i dont care if its not difficult to edit, they just flat out look good, thats what matters.

I like screens that show what to expect, very edited sreenies make you expect more than you get sometimes

Thank Kev for that one. He did all the work on that one [;)]

My screens ain't that attractive... oh, how I wish I had more tools to work with than just MS Paint and XNview.

Are you kidding? I love your screens with the enormous lifthills on them, with Meteora being my favorite

I like almost all of the screenshots posted on this site. I guess that is because it is so easy to get a good shot in NL. BTW, is this thread just for the NL screenshots? Not bragging but I think my UR screenshots are worth a mention too.[:)]

Yours are generally very good, G. Especiallly with URDC, it's really impressive to see a nicely edited shot!

Thanks Gerst, you're pretty awesome too!



I like action shots like this because they are so hard to catch just the way you want them. Kudos![;)]

My favorite of mine.
