Show us those little pieces of eyecandy you use to make your games extra special and more fun!

I love to use 2cc livery in conjunction with different company colours to give my buses a real transport company liveries ! On the screenshot: Poznań with its yellow-green buses (Solaris U12 & U18). Look! Today it is a unique sight at this station, but I succeeded in catching a steam engine! This train will take tourists to the annual Steam Locomotive Parade in Wolsztyn .

That is the end of day of the 25th, but I may have to roll it over into December ...

Maybe we could extend the deadline and give everyone a few more days to get their submissions in?

Here's my entry:

The city of Wenley and its docks. I started detailing my saves when I downloaded the Dutch stations and the ISR NewGRFs. I used to avoid using objects because they don't have any in-game function other than being pretty, but then I saw some screenshots that showed me what was possible and now I use them all the time . I like making docks and coastal cities, so my most used objects usually are Romazoon's and GarryG's seawalls and wharves, and ISR/DWE style objects, FaCSO and CIRSO.

Thank you for the suggestion . If we had less than 3 entries then that is exactly what happens ... the contest is extended for a month. However we now have four entries and prospective participants have had almost a full month to conceive of and submit an entry. One of those four entrants and anybody else who submits before the deadline will be honored and rewarded for their timely efforts. We are also trying out a new system and it must be allowed to play out and be evaluated.

In my country 26,5 hours left. Am I in the limit? I work in healthcare, I have to go to work

This month this change actually reduces the time for sending, but from December this time will be longer .

In my country 26,5 hours left. Am I in the limit? I work in healthcare, I have to go to work

to the healthcare work.
And a very good question, 12:00 PM on 25 November in the UTC or AST time zone, or what? This is a very international competition .

[fridaemon]

I'm confused We have central european time, it's CET I think I have to examine 2500 samples and in the evening I could work on screenshot Last wednesday is good idea, but I forgot about it Now left 25 hours 3 minutes. Hope I have stil time

temporal8, where are you? Hope you'll enjoy this competition too. Come back into 8bit world for a while!

AST is Atlantic Standard Time, the time zone wherein I live.

I use the International Dateline as my point of reference. When the island of Midway goes from 24:59 of the 25th to 00:00 of the 26th, Wednesday the 25th of November, 2020 is history.

oh, so I'm in the limit

oh, so I'm in the limit

Very much so.

Finally got a screenshot done. Strange part is nearly all the objects items I made and when using them you get more ideas of more pieces a person could add later.

This is a country town called Gum Lake in far west of the State. Once a year all the surrounding towns and farms get together for their own Olympics. The rest of year most of the area returns to grazing land.

Gonna throw one out, hope I'm not too late

The harbour at Isesaki with metro line, ferry terminal, distribution centre and the hustle and bustle of a busy Japanese cityscape.

Hey how's it going?

Unfortunately I had to choose due to lack of time, a shame because you and Garry are making some magnificent graphics, ideal for creating beautiful things for SOTM.

Plenty of time. The Wednesday, November 25, 2020 barrel isn't empty yet.

[Fredinho]

Good! Ten hours left of 25th November where I live, I'll be sure to deliver my entry before then!

[fridaemon]

Hmm, I love your screenshot and it really inpire me. Hope next month!

Happy for everyone who add something to screenshot competition. So many ideas there. And when I see my objects in someone's screenshot, it warms my heart

The main city shows you main centre of wood industry. Here it works 100%!There are warehouses for non-exported wood and satisfied employees.

Baker Island in the AoE time zone still has about 40 minutes of Wednesday remaining.

Might be simpler Wally if when wake up Thursday morning close the comp that way Wednesday should be finish on all sides of the world. Just some towns in Alaska might be a problem as their days or is it night are 3 months long.
