332nd was slotted for the Me-110 and attacked a task group in 16.2 if I recall.
Hits on a destroyer.

When we were rtb we came across some low B-25's heading home.

Was a pretty good night for the dogs. :)

That would be me I think. I only took one hit and I was down.  :mad:

Thanks, I use the Auto-Color Feature in Photoshop to get that color. I will have to post an original to show you the difference.

I find the auto color just washes things out (as it does a bit in those pictures). It just takes the darkest pixel and the brightest pixel and shifts the black-to-white spectrum to be in that range.

I prefer the better quality of manually editing the high/low on the color curve based on the peaks on the graph.

I use it for quick edits, and it really makes a difference from my standard in-game shots.

Nef should be able to get great pics since I know first hand that his gunnery ingame in directly related to his real-life gunnery.  :neener:  Plenty of time to make good pictures when you can't hit squat. What's the effective accurate range on that Glock again Nef?  :t

Post by: TUK on October 05, 2010, 04:15:13 PM
I also use the auto-color feature sometime nef.. I try it, then undo it, to see if it helps or hurts the pic..   At least we are putting out some screens in public, instead of evauating them...Nice pics.. :salute

LOL, it doesn't bother me but everyone keeps saying Stalemate instead of Stranglehold in this thread and others.

Oh well, as long as we are all having fun.  :cheers:

BTW - Good Job JG11!

I forgot to turn the film on at first. Thing is I don't remember shooting at that many planes :headscratch: Must have got a few proxies I think. Ran out of guns on this P38 but I still got the kill pretty sure a few of those kills were kind of like the 38 situation. Or like this Spit only hit him once & I got the kill on him. I think a lot of these kills were people flying in to the ground than out right kills on my part.
