Screenshots? How do we do it

Postby BartTv » 16 Aug 2006, 13:35

Hi,

I was installing some MODs into my forum -- more like testing them to see what they got and if it works --

And i wanted to send in a demo of how it looks but didn't know how.
Can someone please post in a tutorial please.

Thanks.

Press PrintScreen on your keyboard and paste it and paint then save.

use the [ img ] [ /img ] tags (minus the spaces)

What that doesn't tell you is that you have to have uploaded the image somewhere first. The "img" tag only lets you reference an image from some other web server, it won't do anything with an image on your harddrive.

You could upload it to a free image hosting service, such as [url=http://imageshack.us/]ImageShack[/url]. There's also a "Add image to post" link when replying, that uses the PostImage.org service to upload the images.

Right. sometimes I just take for granted things that others might not understand.
