First of, thanks for the support. We can take criticism but request it to be done in a respectful way just like we treat each and every member and visitor with respect.

Jump to postOne important information on the METAR is the temperature/dewpoint spread. The closer the dewpoint is to the actual temperature the more likely it is that you will have high humidity with bad visibility. So if e.g. you have a temperature of 15 degrees and a dewpoint of 15 with little or no wind, the...

Jump to postHey Tom, the histogram is a great help when editing photos but screeners are not supposed to use it when screening, so if you doubt the contrast by looking at a photo it is safer to increase contrast beyond the histogram values. I think an additional 10 units will do the trick here. Regards, Thierry
Jump to postAngad,
the aircraft is being worked on so to the best of my knowledge the motive should be ok. Personally I would crop it a little closer on the right though to give it a more balanced feeling.
Cheers,

sorry for any inconvenience but we won't be fixing that feature as we are in the progress of updating the site as a whole which will take care of the issues we are experiencing at the moment.
Thanks for standing by.

Thanks for your feedback, Kas, it is much appreciated.
I know there are some quality issues but it's got to fall under the 'rare" category and hence deserve some screening leniency, so I will try my luck in the queue.

Thierry

Jump to postBaldur,
the photo is very backlit and shows some grain. The noise would not be such a big issue but the backlight will most probably kill it vor A.net.

Baldur,
to me this looks like the motive is completely out of focus. Not even a smaller size will compensate this, I'm afraid.

Jump to postNice ones, Baldur!
The closest one has the most impact imo, so that's the one I'd chose.
I do admit though that the wider one has some appeal by showing more of the landscape.
The widest one is stretching it a bit too far for my taste.
Cheers,
Thierry

For what it's worth, I like it a lot though it might work even better if cropped in a bit tighter.
