This contest is great, along with the fact that airport models are coming soon!

Awesome! I have a few ideas,but how do i move the screen to take a screen shot? Does it HAVE to be by your normal minifig view all the time?

There is a guide on how to take a screenshot in my post above.

I already entered!

No i know HOW to do it,it's just is there a way to move the screen around in a position you want,or does it HAVE to be from your minifig view taking a screen shot?

I don't think there is another view then the basic one. So, I guess that you cannot do something others.

Try maybe right-click with the mouse , or just using the arrows if you want to take a screenshot with your minifig looking at the camera.

I am going to enter once I get LU Activated on my comp! Can't wait!
