TAKING THE PHOTO
Ok so i am going to give you a step by step guide on how to take and perfect pictures in GT5.
1, Load up your GT5 and get in any race can be online, practice A spec, B spec, whatever it is as long as it is a race.
2, Play the race normally, or if you want to create a screenshot of you doing a donut or some other trick then do that before the race ends so you have the footage to take the picture of.
3, When the game ends or you press exit then you will see the map you just raced on and a few more options. Start, reply, save reply and so on, but we only need these two for now.
4,If you always want to come back to the footage then the best option for you is SAVE REPLAY but if you just want a quick option then just click REPLAY.
5, If you choose SAVE REPLAY then you must go to the GTHome then all the little round circles in the bottom left click the one with the video camera called REPLAY THEATRE. Once you are in there your saved reply should be there so click it then click PLAY.
6,If you choose Replay then you can skip the homepage part and the footage will start straight away.
7,Once the footage has started press X to bring up the menu and get ready to take your screenshot.
8, Once you find the right spot press START and the footage will pause then go over to Photo mode and click X
9, Now place the camera where you think looks good and press X.
10, Now you will be in the picture taking camera you can move this around by the on screen buttons. When this camera is placed press X again and it will show the picture you have just taken. If you don't like it then press O and go back and try again. If you do like it then press X and it will say SAVED. Congrats you have just taken your first picture! You can view them on MY GTHome In the photo gallery section.

Getting great screenshot's is always very good when they look great otherwise they look rubbish and knowone wants to see them.So making sure you get that perfect point is always crucial play around with the effects and carmera angles until you think it is perfect! Some of the best shots i think are when the car is in action or is doing something really cool that we all want to see!. If you have any good pictures post them here and i would like to see what you can do
I will post them up on the Pictures page when i see them.
I hope this tutorial helped you get the best out of making screenshots!.
Thanks is always appreciated.

What are you like 13? 14 maybe? Grow a little thicker skin son, acting like a little bitch dont get you anywhere in life, you act like a bitch and get treated like a bitch.
Im down with to each his own, and Cambered cars I don't have an issue with
If a guy wants to wear a tutu and crown because he like it, thats is fine dont make it any less queer.
Im joshing now. I was not trying to ruin your day (a comment on a board should never be able to do that) It looks terrible & its a damn shame when somebody does that to a car. That is the reality, it is your car and the little douche bag in the video with that stupid ass Celica is a moron, he should be slapped and have his licence blow torched, but he probably dont have one anyways.... Am I being harsh? I don't care, Am I an asshole? Maybe..... But I think 22's on a Monte Carlo jacked up is also pretty damn stupid and I dont mind telling the Fools with them they look stupid. Does my opinion matter? No, and it shouldn't make a difference to you as your makes no difference to me. Not unless you come around here & Im like Mohammed Ali at the track, king shit talk beat you before we even line up.---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:18 AM ----------
Here are some examples of slammed & stanced cars that dont look retarded, Maybe you can spot the difference..

Here is a nice example
This is Cambered and Stanced, looks good. Even though this style is not for me I can accept it for what it is, low and slow, lol. But sorry your Skyline is just dumb in every way.

Looking back in the thread 90% of your pics are stupid over cambered to the point of stupidity.

look guys, everyone has his own taste but theyre is no need to go of on each other like that!
if you don't like a other man's projects, that's fine but don't bring that person down like that.
theyre are more friendly ways to tell someone how you feel about his projects.

thx. like a sayd; just enough camber until the rims fits nicely in to the wheelarches is good enough for me.

Agreed, I could of been much less harsh about it. Sometimes I forget there are young folks around that still have some growing to do
Your pic was the best I could find in here of a Stanced car done perfect. Your technique is flawless, and it should be noted that is how you do it right....
BTW Did you build that 2.12? I have a friend on 2.12 that would really like to know how to slam a car on 2.12.

Got to give the Lad credit for turning the cheek, and not taking it personally. Its a commodity skill, relaxed is always the best way to deal with life. I must apologize too, Im a tad confrontational at times but I never take it too seriously. We Canadians are an odd bunch, we like to buy you a beer after a good fight, unless your a Bruins fan, then its war for life.
So I agree, truce, and point out Bloom came out to be the Bigger man first.
