I think if you can perceive and environment in photoshop well enough and make the environment feel like it's alive, then it's all justified.

I edit the hell out of mine so i suppose i am a part of this party. For some people more simplicity is really good, in whatever game i take photography in all my shots i edit start out super complicated and i eventually tone them down to be more simple and not to hectic and harsh and i try to make all the effects i do have some relevance to realism and how lighting would work if there were dynamic shadows, a lot of my stuff is like defining highlights and shadows and just trying to get it to focus in a certain direction and looking at some of my shots they are pretty heavily edited, i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing as long as it all flows together well and it all makes sense. I see people starting to experiment with more editing and what not and i think it's cool to see them trying to improve on it, but editing is a great way to express a certain mood and the direction of the picture, the focal point, the environment and giving the image life, such as what Neal said already, it's just cool to give the image some life outside of the normal screenshots and it shows the type of mood that they wanted for their picture and the way they visioned and wanted to express it and it's cool to see the differences in what people end up doing and the effects that they can come up with from it, it's really provided some stunning photography for this game compared to when it first started.

I honestly don't do much to mine other than some color stuff, highlights/burning,and some lens blur affects.
I'm not talking about you, Blake.

While I do agree Neal, there's some people with no concept of making a believable environment then incorporating it into their screenshot :lol: I know they all start somewhere, but nailing a good, clean screenshot should be first priority before you edit the shit out of it.

When it comes to people like Lars, his screenshots are a work of art, and the editing is definitely justified.

PS: Not going to read Cameron's rant when I explained myself as he started his rant.

Looks dope DD!

And to touch on the editing topic. There's only a certain few that edit screenshots to the next level (wish more would). For people that are learning it will take time and I wish they would perfect their shots and understand how they should edit (realistic but still not overboard). There is a lot of simple stuff people are missing and feel like they half ass some things just to get out a screenshot. I really want to get around to making a tutorial, I think it would help a lot of people.

So pretty much you have to find the right amount of editing... not too little, not too much but practice makes perfect.

For a while now, it's seemed like my screenshots go completely unnoticed. No "Hey, that's decent," or, "Wow, fall off the planet, you suck" at all. If people would say anything, I'd probably feel more inclined to post

Gotta do it for you. I mean I can see how it would be hard trying to get better without input but just use others to learn from.
