trueblue Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I have an Alienware M15X,, I only got it last spring and this years game now is the first time I have tried to upload a screenshot. I press the Print Screen button as I always did before with my last laptop and nothing ?? when i open up paint and press paste, all I get is a screenshot of my desktop ?? Thing is ,, the print screen button works with web pages ,, just it would appear not the game ?? Anyone had anything similar or have any ideas on a workaround ??

Carmi88 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I have something similar, and I'm not sure the problem. I press the shortcut alt+f9 and nothing happens. Previously had 10 screenshots, and a message popped up whenever I did one, but now nothing happens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rinso Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 go to steam screenshot manager Click on the screenie you want click upload to steam cloud. When it is uploaded to cloud, click on it, say "view online" then, when that page loads in Steam window, right click it, and "copy link address" and then paste it here.... I think... http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198002319784/screenshot/504639052645299933 <test Yep, that works... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I click F12 in the game then go to steam click on view then screenshots, a popup comes up I select FM12 from the drop down box and that is where I get stuck, nothing else comes up, no screenshots are there.
