I noticed some graphic glitches at the bottom of my maps as well, but it seems random, sometimes it's doing that, and sometimes it is not. Like the images in the squares at the bottom are off or something, sorry no pictures.

Right, and as far as the posting screens, I think you have too have an address on the web too keep them so you can refer too them in the post.

Alternatively, use the Upload file (javascript:openupload()) link at the bottom of each page to uplad the file to the CFC server. Once you have uploaded it, you can link to it using the [ img] [ /img] tags (remove the spaces I put in), with the URL path to the file being between the img tags. :)

Firaxis is already aware of the weird tiles on the top and bottom (at least I hope so after all the times I've told them).

As far as scrolling goes, are you playing a conquest? If so, this is intentional. The maps don't loop on those scenarios.

Just hit 'prt Scrn' (It's above the insert, delete, home and end keys on my keyboard, on other keyboards it is near the Num Lock key), then open up a paint program and paste. Then save it as .jpg if you can (.bmp won't work).

Use the 'upload file' link that Ainwood posted. The directions are pretty easy. After uploading, you will get a 'confirmation' message (this may take a couple minutes), then click on 'view files in Uploads 5 folder' and find your file (should be one of the very first ones listed), then right-click on the file and select 'properties'. this will give a link to the file that you can just highlight and copy and then paste into a post.

Yes.
