    Blur slightly on the edges?

    I've done it a bit, but all too often things just start to look out of focus and have no definition.

    I doubt it's possible to fix, but maybe there is a way.

    Very rough and basic light editing. I need to study the play of light and shadows to get a better idea of how to render them. Again, having trouble sorting through the aliasing.

    Does your video card not do anti-aliasing? Even if you don't use it while you fly, use it for your screen shots. I find it's easier to take the screens from my .ntrks. If your system is slightly slower using AA, it shouldn't make as much difference watching a playback. It sure is easier than trying to edit out jagged lines on the A/C in your screenshot.

    I have a built in graphics system with my laptop. It's not a separate card. I don't think it's possible to activate.

    Looking through my computer, it is a Mobile Intel- 965 Express Chipset. Not exactly high power stuff.

    Thanks TT.

    I still experimenting, and learning more about Gimp as I go. Today I learned how to make a layer, cut out parts from another image, scale it, and learned a bit about making curved lines.

    This is a purely experimental shot, and it is a little sappy and uninteresting compositionally, but I learned a lot making it.

    I like the prop-disc lighting on that one.

    Is that a mod or did you edit it into the picture?

    Another one. More play with light and shadow. Still far from perfect; it looks more like a stylized painting than reality.

    I'm starting to notice I've been using these vertical orientations a lot. Need to shake this before it becomes a theme, lol. I hope to replace the background with something real if I find something adequate.
