Video Game Car Photography Contest: Trial

This is a trial run for pictures of cars taken from video games such as Gran Turismo 4. I think this should be a fun competition because you don't have to have a great camera or uber-luck to catch a contest winning shot: you can just see something that looks good, and grab it from your video game. In addition, it give access to some cool pictures that normally wouldn't be seen.

Rules:
1. The entered picture must be taken by YOU and not just found on the net.
2. Only one photograph per person and per weekly contest allowed
3. You may NOT change your photograph once it has been entered.
4. There are 5 days to submit your photograph, a poll will be created after five days for people to vote on. (Voting from Saturday-Sunday then new thread on Monday with results)
5. Your image must be a resolution of 800*600 or lower. If it is not, your picture will not be in the voting thread.
6. Each photographer cannot vote for their own photo, they must vote for others
7. The picture should get submitted with: the subject matter, the track, and the game the picture originates from.
8. Levels, Curves, Colour Balance, Brightness/Contrast, Hue/Saturation, cropping, or anything else capable in the development process or with filters and common special lenses are allowed to use in Photoshop or other image editing softwares. Other adjustments and effects are not allowed to use in your picture.

Best of luck to you, and also to this competition. Let's hope it can hold a candle to the others.

Here is my entry for the week. It's a Mercedes-McLaren SLR under heavy braking on the New York City track, in Gran Turismo 4.

Re: Video Game Car Photography Content: Trial

I've uninstalled all my car games so I can play my World War II aircraft games. Can I post A/C shots instead?

Um, sure... why not? I suppose we can open it up to land, air, and sea machines. But I suppose the common thread has to be that the item in frame is mechanical. So really no World of Warcraft stuff, especially because that game bothers me so :p

On my PS2, I plug my SD card into a USB adapter into a USB port on the front of my machine. Maybe you can do that on a 360?
