    Welcome to the Unofficial Screenshot Competition!
    This is a fun and friendly alternative to the official Screenshot Competition run by DTG.

    Our rules:
    • Screenshot should be in some way (can be very tenuous) linked to the theme.
    • You can enter up to 3 pictures, posted separately. You can delete and replace if you wish.
    • TSC only shots allowed.
    • 3rd party content, enhancement and artistic editing is accepted.
    • Thread poster picks the podium and can't enter themselves. The decision is final.
    • The winner chooses the new theme for next week and becomes its judge.
    • We strongly discourage any negativity, this is a light hearted & fun contest!
      This is a major "we are all friendly" thread and we hope it will always remain so.
    • Please keep chat to an absolute minimum.
    The theme this week is Out of the City.

    Entries will close at 9:00 PM GMT on Friday, August 25th and will be judged by me Craigie-C

    In the event of this week's winner not responding by 5:00 PM GMT Sunday, August 27th, a new thread will be created with the backup theme Freestyle as its always a popular choice.

    Good luck and have fun!

    Wow. Thanks for the win and congratulations to the runners up. Some fantastic shots this week and I don't think I'll ever quite capture a shot like that ever again in TSC.

    I'll get the thread set up at some point today for people to begin pondering over :)
