Thanks Josh, this might be a good option to sorta "get my name out there" for a first time submitter :mrgreen: I could also use some help setting up a article for the first time

Thanks Russ I dont quite understand this. But it sounds like you and Andrew are talking about the same thing. What does this mean exactly? That if i submit the plans and proposed article to them and they reject it, that they could choose to still use it in the future? Im also going to...

That would make perfect sense lol I only have this trackplan posted on this forum, and 2 other smaller forums. Should i really take the plans out of the forums? As for the editor's name, the obvious answer would be to look at the magazine itself. If you're not a regular reader it's very...

Andrew, can you elaborate on this a little more? So are you saying that if i submit this plan to MR and the deny or reject it, that they can turn around and use it anyways? I think i am approaching the wanting critical critiquing lol. If im going to make into MR or RMC, im going to have only...

Thanks Ronson for the links. I have already discovered the list of industries the M&ET serves from M&ET's website (they have the same list on there site lol, as well as the same maps) But i never thought of looking up the business names. Hopefully on there site would be an address where i could...

I never use the flash for any of my pictures, the flash always gives a very non-realistic effect and WAY to bright effect to the outcome of the pictures lol Thanks for the tips on the self timer too, i believe that would really help in getting the best possible shots over all as well :mrgreen:

I figured out how to set the custom white balance and i did so on a white piece of paper. I tried it out after i changed some other settings and i got a very good close-up shot of one of my trucks. I was very pleased with the shot. This was during the day, with the natural light coming in from...

I cant believe all the help im getting in these topics, this is wonderful and i cannot thank-you guys enough :mrgreen: I do have a sturdy tripod, the only thing that would possibly throw it off is the fact that i am going to be setting it up on thick carpet floor.... Also, i have decided that...

Yeah i really like the SP ones :mrgreen:

hmmmm thanks for that MM, ill have to try it out when i come back home, im on my way out the door right now lol I did notice that there were 2 different "versions" of Google's "Street View" when i was browseing, i got one version one time when i opened it and a different one the next time i...

LOL I dont think there is a Amtrak that runs near it, otherwise, i would take the train down there LOL. I think im just going to bite the bullet and take the long trip down there and snap some pics for myself. Ill be able to get the rest of the company building names i need, do some...

hmmm i cant seem to be able to do that, i can only view a view from the streets looking left or right. I wish it would allow you to down railroad tracks too :rolleyes: lol

This is now what i plan on doing. Submitting a plan with text explaining the plan, the prototype, and some prototype pictures from the real M&ET. How do i know what the editor's name is? lol You've given me some good things to consider when writing the inquiry to them. Im going to revise my...

Thanks for the tip Russ, ill think about submitting to them :mrgreen:

I downloaded the manual for my camera and went through and changed some of the settings. I have to say, there is a big difference. The pics still are not great, still need to fine tune a little more and get some better lights. Im also going to take one of my modules outside and snap some pics...

Thanks Everyone :mrgreen: Thanks for the advise Russ. I GREATLY appreciate it :mrgreen: I am going to edit my inquiry and take out the parts about doing parts of these articles. i think that is some good advise to submit all the modules at once, even though that very well may be a few years...

Thanks Andrew for the tips and advise, I was looking for my manual before i posted this, and i could not find it wall1 wall1 Wonder if i could read the manual online maybe?

Hi Guys, wondering if you guys could help me with setting up my camera to take some BETTER pics lol I have a Samsung L730. Its a 7.2 Mega Pixle Camera I found this on Atlas Model Railroad Forums while searching for more info on submitting to MR and RMC I have NO experience in cameras. I...
