Fantastic Forum: Rise of the Silver Screenies

[May]

Post your most awesome screenies here!

All of the usual forum rules apply.

NO SCREENIES OVER 500 PIXELS IN WIDTH!
If any screenies are over this size, please use a link instead. If you choose to post a screenie over 500 pixels wide, it will be removed.

On with the screenies!

There's been a rash of screenies uploaded incorrectly recently, so here's a wee guide to taking screenshots and correctly saving them.

• Firstly, to screenshot something, press the "Prnt Scr" button on your keyboard (NB: Key may be labelled differently, it should represent "Print Screen" somehow)
• Next, open Paint or another image altering programme.
• Paste the screenshot with Ctrl+V (or Right Click -> Paste)
• Edit the screenshot as you see fit (IE: Crop it to the required max of 500 pixels wide)
• Save the screenshot by selecting "Save As"
• Change the title to something like "fruitmachine"
• DO NOT SIMPLY TYPE ".jpg" AFTER THIS
• Click the arrow next to the drop down list.
• Select .PNG or .GIF (or .JPG if you must, though really it should be saved for saving photos only, not images) from the drop-down list
• Save image.
• Go to an image host (http://www.imageshack.us or http://www.photobucket.com for example)
• Upload your image
• Post it here.

For comparison, this is what your screenshot will end up looking like if you simply add something like ".jpg" or ".png" to the end of the filename

Incorrectly done

And here's what it will look like as a correctly saved .PNG image

Correctly done

Note that even the incorrect version is not as small as they often turn out. Photobucket is notorious for shrinking poorly saved files.

I was SO sure I had won this hand! Then it turned out to lose me the match, and 10K with it:

Talk about a lucky day, I have a new avatar! Yay!! XD

[May]

Woohoo!! Avatar #187! And a pretty good reward!

[moreau360]

#270 one stop closer to being in the top 50.

edit: I just noticed that the av reads "raider of maraqua" instead of "raiders" which is actually the name of the game. This game is due for a makeover if you ask me.

It probably means that since you're using the avatar, you're a raider of Maraqua.

Oooh, yummy!

Ouuucchh.. There's only a 0.024% chance of getting a four of a kind!

Man, I cannot believe I got this. My browser has been running boggy lately, and I've been having a hard time getting through the haggle process. I got so lucky!
