I must say that I like the real screenshots more  Maybe you can make a mix between real screens and this kind of screens.
But after all, it's your choice 
I was PCM Rulezz in a previous life
Winners never quit, quitters never win.

I see your point. Maybe I can use the "special" screens only for special occasions. Only pictures that are worthy of being framed.
Thanks, big help! Expect the story to start June 19th, with the introduction (don't need PCM13 for that!)
PS. Those screenshots had nothing to do with the story, I just went through a quick stage to experiment with screenshots  |

Sneak Peak for my PCM 13 story. Well, it's actually asking for advice on my behalf
Spoiler
The question obviously is: Is anyone bothered by this effect? I thought it might be nice to use this effect in race reports. For me it looks cool, but maybe it bothers you all  thanks for the advice in advance!
Is there any possibility to turn the effect down a notch? I like the style, but it looks a little too much "drawn". At least to my liking.

Yeah, sure But a few post above I decided to use it rarely instead of regularly. I think that way it'll be more special. If I'd use it constantly, it might become regular and maybe even annoying
So thanks for the advice, all! Saves me a lot of work (Now I don't have to edit every screenshot!) |

If you want my completely honest opinion?
That 'cartoon' effect looks like something a 14-year-old girl would put on her instagram photos. There are other ways to enhance the picture without making it look like a sample of 'cool' and 'innovative' instagram effects.
There! Opinion can be disregarded as one pleases

Didn't want to post every time somebody said anything but on this comment I just must
Although I know what you mean, I'm not a 14 year old girl And I think it looks nice because it would make the report read like a graphic novel. But I do see what you mean. Just wanted to clarify I didn't just add the effect to make a cool shot |

I think the sketch effect looks nice Ian, imo a story is best told like a fantasy tale after all.
I don't like the try-hard realism graphics that modern games produce anyway. That's what real-life is for...

What can we talk about in the Cafe?
Anything relating to PCM doesn't belong.
Any remotely funny YT video goes in the even funnier thread.
Food and Sports have their own thread.
If we talk about weather, that is bound to have its own thread.

Not spam!!! But Spam i guess is allowed, i mean it's a cafe after all. Just Off-Topic bits and pieces, but when things start taking up 2-3 pages they should move onto their own thread.
And again, Anyone got any opinions about the HTC One! As i said i'm getting a new phone, and i refuse to get an iPhone or a Galaxy so would like some real opinions and experiences

Get the Nokia Lumia 820/920/822/922(depending on your provider). Incredibly fast, good size(not too big), and runs Windows OS, which works seamlessly since OS8 was released. Mine has been run over by my dad's Suburban, dropped innumerable times, and taken a general beating. And it keeps ticking with nothing more than a few scratches, and I don't have a case. The camera is like 18MP on my 820, and it's (I believe) 21MP on the 920. Also, the picture quality is HD already, so go for it!

Why refusing Galaxy, but getting HTC?
Anyway, HTC One is probably the 2nd best phone right now on the market. Samsung SIV takes it marginally I think.
But yeah, if you have the money, then go for it.
