Screenshots

[Toaae]

Sorry about this, but how do you take screenshots?

In your game, press "Print Scrn" (it's next to F12, and shares a button with "SysRq"). Then, go into a photo editor (such as Microsoft Paint), and go to Edit-Paste (or Control-V). Then you can save it and upload it here!

I'm still amazed at how some people don't even know how to use their keyboard.

we once got a friend so worked up because his keyboard didn't have an "any" key that he almost took it back. We stopped him before he could but DAMN that was funny.

Isn't there specific programs you can use to get pictures. I don't use them myself but I've heard of them. Also seeing as this is "slightly" similar. is there any programs I can use to take a video of what I'm doing on screen?

"To continue, press any key."

"To exit, press any other key."

Dont ya just Press Print Screen? think, so......?

Your keyboard comes with a built-in screenshot function. It takes the current monitor output and copies it to the clipboard (think of it as highlighting the entire page and pressing CTRL+C).

Video output is different. Try getting a program from shareware archives...they usually work very well. They're mainly good for recording demonstrations and tutorials, but if you try and use them to record a video from the web (ie trying to download it illegally), you get a blank black square.

"To exit, press any other key."

good advice!

well, it's been over a month since this was posted but I'll reply anyway(just in case Toaae is still having problems)...


Step 1:

you will need to press the "Print Scrn" button on your keyboard.

 

[Mr. Hyperbole]

You'll need to open a "paint" program(MS Paint should automatically come with your 'puter).

 

[Mr. Hyperbole]

your Paint program...
