Print Screen takes the screen and puts in into your clipboard where you can just Ctrl-V it into any picture editting program.

unfortunately, I can't figure out how to put the image in the reply...but the starting location had 6 cows, on river. 3 spaces north were 3 spices, and 12 spaces east was ivory. 3 odd cows were spread out as well, within a 7 space radius from city boarders. It's the best start I've ever seen. Apparently, though, there's been much better.

Wrap the url in [img] tags, or go to the bottom of the reply page and click the attachments thingy.

6 cattle and all those bonus grasslands + river! Are you sure you didn't make that in the editor? Do you still have a save of that? Maybe some can extract the map/world seed.

It wasn't made in the editor, cuz if it was it would have an "I" in the bottom right hand corner for scenario introduction. I guess sometimes the map generator likes to put a smile on our faces

Unless our civ happens to be India (too small, can't tell), in which case they can't work the cows at all

I made a map after hearing a song about India called "World Without Hunger". I loaded it with tons of bonus resources, but skimped on the luxuries and strategics. Maybe I should upload that map.

No, it's either the Iroquois or Inca. Most likely Iroquois.
