Get yourself a camera then take a picture of the monitor. Then get the picture developed at your local photogaphy retailer. Then scan your picture into the computer and put it up on a picture host such as photobucket. Then get your image tags for the picture and paste it on a thread. Or you could do it the more quicker way and printscreen it.

Hello Sidedork,

Yes, as state above in 2 posts, use the print screen key or get a screen capture program such as fraps. Should you use the print screen key, here is a more in-depth explanation on what to do.

Simply when you want to take an image, press the "Print Screen" key; which on a standard US keyboard is to the left of Scroll lock, and to the right of F12. Atleast on all the US keyboards I have ever used, it's been there.

What this will do is insert an image of your screen into the clipboard. Once you have hit the key, you will need to open up any graphics program which you have, if you don't have anything better than MS Paint, MS Paint will work.

After that is done, you will need to paste your image into the program, using any paste method you prefer(Ctrl + V, Edit Menu > Paste, etc), like you would when you copy and paste text. The image will then be loaded in the program. After that, just save the image as whatever format you want; if you do this in MS Paint however, you will notice quality loss with some formats.

Hope this helps, and good luck.

- Damon

PrtScn is the slowest and most arduous way you could possibly take in-game screenshots from FPSC possible if you disregard Opposing Force's idea .

Use F12. It's quicker and you don't have to exit to take multiple screenshots. The screenshots will go into the main FPSC directory but if you're going to upload them here please convert it to .jpg in Paint.
