This is another tough one. I'll go with king because I think his pic is framed really well.

 

kingofsimcity-4

Balthoraz-1

 

It seems not being so tough when all are voting his screenshot. :(

But well, at least I was added that just for try it.

 

The only thing I do not know now is can I enter with another image after this one?

Nah, you can do it after someone presented another image, I think, but at least it was worth a try :)

 

Then it's time to search my best screenshots. The image posted is one of my first screenshots :(

Kingofsimcity - 1

Themistokles - 0

 

I do like the second image, but the small glitches with the RHW (the shoulder over the merge markings and no shoulder after the ramp, even though the ramp has a shoulder) means that the beauty of the MMP cars and flora by the buildings does not make it up. Therefore, my vote goes for the C:S image.

Kingofsimcity - 1

Themistokles - 1

 

The neat little details and the usage of those special RHW-4 accel/deccel lanes really did it for me.

Kingofsimcity - 2 ¥¥¥¥

Themistokles - 1

It just reminds me of Motown and it's grittiness. I do like the the second image but the focus on that brown patch of land is sort of a miss :P

Kingofsimcity -- 1

Michael95I -- 0

 

In my opinion the second picture desperately needs some "city life" to it.  By that I mean, cars moving, Sims walking down the street.  Though nice, it looks like a ghost town.

The high contrast was the deciding factor.


Dear sir/madam/whoever will read this!

This profile is now defunct.

Computer problems and issues with accessing my Imageshack account meant My SC4 CJ Scrapbook was lost and utterly irretrievable. This setback put me off SC4 for many months.

Apologies for the inconvenience and for the lost pictures.

But that SC4 itch did not go away and it had to be scratched! I have started afresh with a new account here- The British Sausage

The URS is a spiritual successor to the SC4 CJ Scrapbook.

With this update this will be the last time I visit my original Simtropolis account- admin/mods feel free to remove it or do whatever you need to do. I have no further use for the Ln X (BLANKBLANK) account.

 

With regards, Miles Saunders-Priem aka. Ln X aka. The British Sausage

I love it! It reminds me of National Geographic's article about New York City.

Wait, kingofsimcity's picture has achieved hall of fame status, so we need another competitor. :)

 

 

He won 3 rounds not? Then he have to win a 4th? Or he won 4 rounds?

He won against michae95l, against me, and again michae95l. So 1 round remaining not?

The first image is way too saturated for my liking.

You got three of the 4 rounds, but remember the round with Thermistokles, where kingofsimcity won.

I don't think anyone's been here to reinforce the guideline for establishing "image titles" prior to the start of rounds. Please remember to do so.

That's the best shoreline I've seen in CS yet. It looks very promising! (I don't like the power lines, though. They detract from the horizon.)

And, by the way, I want to thank those of you who gave constructive criticism in "my" round -- it's really helpful to hear other people's views, because there is so much one doesn't see oneself.

I agree. This is an older screenshot of mine, they have since been removed.
