pnefc22 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 How to Post a Screenshot While in FM, press the 'Prt Sc' button (usually next to F12 on your keyboard). Open an image editing program such as Paint and paste the image Save the file as a JPEG Upload the image to an image hosting website such as Photobucket Post the direct Url to the image here.

BLADESMAN Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 thanks pne but the prt sc button dosent do anything on my computer! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 you will probable need to hold down alt. It will seem to do nothing but you have to paste it into paint, just open it, edit---->paste Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 thanks pne but the prt sc button dosent do anything on my computer! Nothing apparent happens when you press it, but when you open Paint or similar program, press Ctrl+V. That will paste into Paint whatever was showing on your screen when you pressed Prt Sc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ftg87 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Still nothing happens! this is frustrating! how do you paste? Press Ctrl+V or, in Paint and IIRC in most other programs, on the menu across the top, click on Edit then choose Paste Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ftg87 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Right, let's start from the beginning then. You had FM open on the screen you wanted to post? Then you hit Prt Sc but nothing happens when you try to paste into Paint? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elrithral Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Alt+F9 will take an automatic screenshot and send it to My Docs - SI - FM - Screenshots. You don't need to go through all that Paint rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Alt+F9 will take an automatic screenshot and send it to My Docs - SI - FM - Screenshots. You don't need to go through all that Paint rubbish. IIRC though, that saves the img as a png, which usually takes longer to load on the forums, whereas with Paint, you save it as a jpeg which takes a lot less time to load. Plus, in all fairness, it doesn't take very long at all to paste it into Paint, plus should you need to, it is easy to crop the image then also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I suppose paint is handy if your life is so hectic that you can't wait for a png to load Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I suppose paint is handy if your life is so hectic that you can't wait for a png to load OK, no need to get all sarky about it, I was only making a point. IMO using Paint is better, it doesn't take very long, you can edit it there and then if you need to and the picture will load quicker, all positives Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
