Can those who include their screenshots post their guides to how to do it?

I knbow it gets axplained in this forum againa nd again, and i have read it before too, but now i can't find where i have read it. Hopefully it will alaways be available in this thread for new players to look up.

Also i think people have different ways of doing it so it would be nice to have a few choices.

Thanks :)

There are two basic ways to do this.

First, using just this forum, you can attach your screenshot using "manage attachments". Civ5 native screenshots are TGA files and these cannot be attached, you need to change it to .jpg, .jpeg or .png to attach it. I use IrFanView or a similar free program to convert this. Once you have attached the file, you right click on it, choose "copy link location" or similar for your browser (I use Firefox) and then use the image tags and paste the link between them.

Second method is to use an off-cfc photo site such as photobucket or equivalent, post your photo there, and then link it back to here. You copy the link location at whatever site it is and then place that link between the image tags and the photo should show on CFC.

Hope this was clear enough. If you need further help, please ask. :)

That helped me too thanks.
I think you should add a link to this thread in your game announcement posts ;)
