not using fancy shaders shouldn't be a negative point, considering they're basically the same idea as running everything through generic ass instagram filters

I think the whole point of being a photographer is choosing the right angle and shaders.
Otherwise its just generic stuff.
Take Mr Lol for example, he may just use the same shader settings in all his photos but his angles are pretty sweet! He really makes a build look nice in his photos. I use him all the time as he does bring the best out of my builds.
In conclusion - Anybody can take a screenshot, its about the skill which makes a good photographer.

there is more to a photograph to just looking pretty, there's the color in which the shadows are, where the shadows are placed, how the background looks, like take this one by pass
we had to repaint the bust, change the background, take multiple shots, adjust the azimuth, and then we got the shot we wanted. it took some work
However, i think the thing is... ultra shader shots look better, honestly, and if someone can take an awesome ultra shader shot that fills out all the other requirements, they have a better shot than someone on the lowest settings. maybe that's unfair to people who's computer's can't handle ultra shader shots, but it's not really my business to be fair, it's my business to make things look the best they can.

For their help to the server, Doomonkey and Alternative have been added as builders. Alternative's furniture is awesome and Doom's stuff is real creative and colorful.

you know, although they aren't ultra shaded, the first 3 images are real cool. The airplane one really does give the impression of height and isolation in the sky, and i like how where the focal point is placed. The first one looks real cool and alien, and the use of blue is very nice, and the one in the cabin does feel very atmospheric, however i feel that one is a bit too muted; it would be cooler if the orange coming out of the doorway was much more powerful, and if the contrast between the light and the darkness was heightened.
i do like them. I'd like to see you in a private server to test your photo skills.

these two images caught my eye, i think they look very sleek, though im not too sure about the last three... i'd like some opinions from other contributors
