Thanks!

I use for almost everything a nice compact but not tooooo narrow program called Paint.NET - much better than MS Paint but faster to start and not as complex as GIMP, which I use for those specific things Paint.NEt can't do (e.g. animated gifs). Here I used the standard black-and-white filter before altering contrast and then applied the standard sepia filter whose colour I then modified a bit. Then some sharpening/greasing effets (I dunno what they are called in English, though). The postcardish edges were made in GIMP, though, with a soft spray-like brush.

U-Boot,

Thanks so much for the information on PAINT.net and GIMP! I've never played around with modifying screen shots before now but you've inspired me. Wish me luck.

Some real nice shots, Kaluens. The last one looks like a still from a 1920s film, very eerie indeed.

Is right. Astradeus pic is a brilliant capture.

Silent Hunter 6, a prophetic view:- A little fan attached to the screen which turns on when on the bridge. Also a hidden spray to dampen your face when the waves hit the boat. heh, salt water in yer coffee. hooo, just a thought

The above few are all great screenshots but the point of the 'Realistic Photo' thread is to make it look like it was a real photo taken during the war.

Have a look at the ones on the previous page.

Yes you're right. I've deleted them from here and posted in the correct threads. Sorry 'bout that, should have read the thread properly.
