Much improvment there, nice! :o)
You could try to experiment with bird and frog levels. Im thinking frog has the potential here after seeing your new screenshot.


From what point of view though? The front left wheel of the red hog or front right of the blue? or the middle...you tell me,lol

Just need a bit of advice, I've gone for this screen shot:
Devil
But I'm not sure if this stands a better chance of winning
Resemblance
Thanks very much for your help.

I think resemblance is your best bet, but it could use a little fine tuning.

I think your "Devil" screenshot is the best of them, but the reason i don't think it will have a chance is because of the posture. It's funny you made him look like a devil by using the top of the flag, but as i said to another user we had to capture the essens of the playlist, which is why i don't think these types of screenshots are winning potential.

I think they just browse trough the community files by ssearching in territories, and those tagged with the word control a pick some

I'm guessing you haven't tagged your screenshot all you have to do is go on your profile click on the screenshot and below it will say in a white box add relevant tags you type in control (no punctuation.)

I know what you mean but there are so many capturing the essence in a very similar way so I think it's better to go with something more original as hopefully they will not just be looking for people sitting around a flag which is pretty boring.

Again i think this is one screenshot that does not showcase anything except a death pose.

This is a quote from Bungie:
"Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to take a single screenshot that best showcases this weekend's Double EXP Playlist, Team Control."
I think you should try again, and keep in mind that this is about territories, capture the feel of the battle :)

I personally like power the best, but I'm not a big fan of pics with the yellow shield lines covering the Spartan, other than that, yeah the screenshot looks pretty good. I'd go with that one.

I hear what you are saying, and i agree on most of your points.

The winning screenshot should be more outstanding than the rest, originality is always a good thing. But i don't think it wise to get too far away from what Bungie was asking for.

I like resemblance, but the only problem is that about 1/3 of the images entered look almost exactly like it. submitting it would just throw you into the same clump as everyone else. Try to take a picture that will stand out, because Bungie may pass over yours if it is the 50th one they've seen with a flag taking up half the screen. (I'd bet, but don't hold me to that)
