=== FlightGear logos ===
If you want some graphic elements for your FlightGear-related site (such as a hangar or YouTube channel), please feel free to visit [[FlightGear logos]] for a repository of logos. And if you have some art skills, please don't hesitate to contribute with your own design creations.
=== Screenshots ===
The FlightGear project always needs screenshots, which show features that were added since the last release. These should be of good quality, especially in content and technical image properties. It is therefore recommended to use the best viable filter settings ([[anti-aliasing]], texture sharpening, etc.). More info at [[Howto:Make nice screenshots]].
==== Screenshot of the Month ====
<!--FlightGear's Screenshot of the Month {{#time: F | 2020-11}} 2020 is FIXME by {{usr|FIXME}}
ADD IMAGE -->
If you want to participate in the screenshot contest <!--of {{#time: F | 2020-11 + 1month}}-->, you can submit your candidate to {{forum link|title=this|f=19|t= }}. Be sure to see the first post for participation rules. For purposes of convenience and organization, after all the entries have been submitted, a new forum topic will be started containing all shots in an easy-to-view layout. The voting will then take place there. Once the voting has finished, the best screenshot will be presented in the Newsletter<!-- edition of {{#time: F | 2020-11 + 1month}}-->.
