Hi guys,
I love all FS pics, they are all great, edited or otherwise, and clearly people have made an effort to get them online through hosting sites etc...., but ....can we have a non edit screenshot forum?......there are 3 basic reasons:
 
1. It represents "true" FS...ie FPS and visual quality.
 
2. It gives a "feel" for a certain systems performance.
 
3. Display all FPS....then we know the "mustard".....:)
 
just my rant / suggestion

I agree that something is needed to clearly indicate whether a screenshot has been edited or not since I think it can and probably does cause a fair amount of confusion, certainly to guest visitors who may jump into the screenshot area, see some great shots and then come away wondering why their system doesn't look like that.
 
Perhaps if regular screenshot contributors at least put a banner above and below their pics to clearly indicate an edit. I'd appreciate a quick resume at the end of such work detailing what sort of edits have taken place as well since it then acts as a sort of editing tutorial as well as a display of their great work.
